This package is the ideal choice for a short safari holiday in Kenya.
Day 1: Nairobi/Masai Mara Game Reserve
Depart from Wilson Airport in Nairobi and fly directly to the Masai Mara Game Reserve. On arrival, you will be met by your guide and ushered to your accommodation, the beautiful and rustic Mara Sopa Lodge, for a full lunch.
After lunch, you will take your first Kenyan Safari game drive. This guided tour is an excellent opportunity to survey the sprawling plains and ancient forests of the Masai Mara as the animals come to say their hellos. The game drive concludes back at the lodge where an abundant dinner will be served.
Evenings at the Mara Sopa lodge can be spent as you please. Grab a drink at the bar, take a dip in the pool, or simply sit back and watch the smoldering African sun sink below the horizon.

Day 2: Masai Mara Game Reserve
On day two you will have the opportunity to spend the entire day exploring the Masai Mara. Breakfast will be served at the lodge before the day’s first game drive in the Kenyan safari.
You will return to the lodge for lunch before heading out for another excursion into the heart of Masai Mara. This will be your best chance to spot the “Big 5” (elephants, lions, buffalo, rhinos, and leopards) in their natural habitat. It’s not uncommon to see them all in one trip.
After a full day of exploration with your guide, you will return once again to the Mara Sopa Lodge for dinner and another free evening.
