4 Days | Nairobi – Masai Mara Safari with Urban Jay Safaris

Your safari adventure begins with a pick-up from your hotel or the airport in Nairobi by an Urban Jay Safaris representative. Set off for a scenic drive towards the world-renowned Masai Mara National Reserve, traveling through the dramatic landscapes of the Great Rift Valley. You'll make a brief stop at the Rift Valley Viewpoint, where you can capture panoramic shots of this natural wonder.

Arrive at Sarova Mara Game Camp, a luxury tented camp nestled inside the reserve. After check-in and lunch, head out for your first introductory game drive, a thrilling welcome into the wild savannah. Keep your eyes peeled for elephants, giraffes, zebras, and the elusive predators that roam the golden plains. Return to the camp for a warm dinner and overnight stay.

After breakfast, prepare for a full-day safari adventure. With packed lunch boxes in hand, you'll venture deeper into the reserve, exploring diverse habitats ranging from open grasslands to riverine forests.

This is prime territory for witnessing the Great Migration (July–October), where millions of wildebeest and zebras cross the crocodile-infested Mara River in search of greener pastures. Spot prides of lions lounging under acacia trees, cheetahs sprinting across the plains, and herds of antelope grazing in the distance.

Enjoy your picnic lunch at a scenic spot near the Mara River before continuing your drive through this wildlife-rich ecosystem. Return to your lodge in the evening for a hearty dinner and relaxation under the stars.

Wake up to another day in Africa's most spectacular wildlife theater. After breakfast, embark on another full-day game drive, offering more chances to spot the Big Five and rare species like the caracal, serval cat, or bat-eared fox.

The Masai Mara is famous for hosting one of the densest populations of predators in Africa. You'll explore different regions of the park today, with more time spent near the Mara River, hoping to catch glimpses of hippos, crocodiles, and crossing herbivores.

In the late afternoon, return to the lodge briefly before heading to a nearby Masai village. Immerse yourself in the rich culture of the Masai people—learn about their customs, traditional homes (manyattas), and their colorful beadwork. Enjoy a traditional dance and take the opportunity to purchase souvenirs.
