Day 1
You will be picked up from your hotel in Nairobi around 7:30am. After a briefing and completing payments, you will join the rest of the group to start your safari at 8:30am, heading to the Masai Mara. We will stop at the Rift Valley viewpoint to enjoy scenic views of the valley. Later, we will continue our journey to Masai Mara, where we will arrive in time for lunch at your camp and check in. You will have an afternoon evening game drive in the Masai Mara National Park. Your overnight stay will be at Sankale Camp or similar budget range camp.

Day 2
Wake up at 6:30am and enjoy breakfast. After breakfast, you will spend the entire day on game drives, heading out with a picnic lunch. The Masai Mara is renowned for its lions, elephants, leopards, rhinos, and buffalo, which comprise the Big Five. However, spotting leopards and rhinos can be challenging as they are pretty shy and elusive. The park's concentration of wildlife is truly extraordinary! You will proceed to the Mara River, where the great migration of wildebeests occurs every year. Lunch will be served here, and guests are advised not to feed the monkeys as they may try to snatch some of your fruits—this behavior is typical in this area. While at the river, you can visit the hippo pool, where you might see crocodiles basking on the rocks. You will also see numerous plains game, including antelopes, wildebeests, zebras, and Masai giraffes, as well as scavengers like hyenas and vultures. After lunch, we will continue exploring the park as we return to camp. Budget tented camp bordering Masai Mara NR without fences All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

5.0/5It was amazing, I highly recommend it! We stayed in Wild Nest Mara Camp and it was better than expected, food, hot water, everything. The team from Axis Africa is super organized, all was arranged and communicated clearly. We were picked up and taken for payment by Collins, who showed us around the city and did an amazing quick tour with us! Special thanks to our amazing guide, Joshua! He’s clearly extremely experienced and did all to get some great shots of the animals! Seeing the lions from so close was the highlight of it, made the entire trip worth it! Big thanks to him for all the arrangements and efforts!
Maiara · Brazil
We had an amazing safari experience in Kenya, and a big part of that was thanks to our guide, [Collin]. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and made sure we had the best possible wildlife sightings throughout the trip. His driving and spotting skills were excellent — we were able to see lions, cheetahs, elephants, zebras, wildebeests, and many more animals up close. He also explained a lot about animal behavior and the ecosystem, which made the safari even more interesting. He was always punctual, professional, and made us feel safe and comfortable during the entire journey. The trip was well organized, smooth, and truly unforgettable. Highly recommended for anyone planning a safari in Kenya!
Ahmad · United Arab Emirates
We had a wonderful 6-day safari in Kenya! Our guide, Ben, is knowledgeable, professional, and always happy to share insights about the wildlife, the parks, and Kenyan culture. We especially appreciated his flexibility and the way he balanced finding great wildlife sightings with respect for the animals, the parks, and our safety. A special thanks also to the organizer Tabitha, who was incredibly responsive from the very beginning and helped us tailor the itinerary to exactly what we were looking for. We’ll bring back amazing memories and would happily recommend Ben and Axis operator to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.
