The Ritz Carlton Mara Flying Safari

Your journey begins with a short flight from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport to the Masai Mara, offering spectacular aerial views of the rolling plains and winding rivers. Upon arrival, your private guide will meet you and transfer you to your luxury lodge or tented camp for check-in and refreshments. After settling in, embark on your first private game drive in the reserve. Explore the open savannahs and riverine forests, teeming with wildlife such as lions, elephants, cheetahs, and a variety of herbivores. Pause for a picnic lunch or a scenic break in the bush before continuing your exploration.

As the sun sets over the Mara, return to your camp for dinner and an evening of relaxation under the starry African sky.

After a hearty breakfast, spend the entire day discovering the wonders of the Masai Mara on a private game drive. With your own vehicle and guide, you have the flexibility to explore at your own pace. Track predators like leopards and hyenas, witness elephants bathing along the Mara River, or watch hippos and crocodiles basking on the riverbanks. If you visit during the great migration, you may witness thousands of wildebeest and zebras crossing the crocodile-infested waters of the Mara River, a spectacle of nature unmatched anywhere in the world. A packed picnic lunch will be enjoyed in the wild, allowing you to maximize your time in the reserve.

As dusk approaches, return to your camp for a sumptuous dinner and a peaceful overnight stay.
