Itinerary

Nairobi to Mara

Arrive at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport Nairobi in the morning, as per the suggested airlines, where you will be met after clearing with immigrations formalities and briefed about your safari. We will be driving straight to Masai Mara, the Mecca for wildlife photographers. On arrival at Mara, check in to your hotel, take some rest and then enjoy an enthralling game-viewing drive. Spotting lions, cheetahs and other spectacular predators is the highlight of your day. This evening, enjoy a sumptuous dinner at your Lodge/Camp.

Dinner and Overnight at Keekorok Lodge

After a hearty breakfast, set out on an exciting game-viewing drive into the heart of the reserve. As the morning sun casts its golden glow over the savannah, the wilderness comes alive — herds of antelopes grazing peacefully, elephants moving in unison, and majestic giraffes silhouetted against the horizon. Keep your cameras ready, for every turn in the trail can bring a new surprise. With a bit of luck, you might witness the raw drama of the wild — a predator stalking its prey, a chase unfolding in real time, and perhaps even the breathtaking moment of a kill happening right before your eyes. Few experiences in nature are as humbling and thrilling. After returning for a well-deserved lunch and some rest, continue your adventure on the afternoon game drive. As the day cools, the activity in the bush picks up once again. Lions may begin to stir from their afternoon slumber, rhinos may emerge from the thickets, and leopards often make their silent, elusive appearances at dusk. This is the land of the legendary Big Five — lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino — and with patience and keen eyes, you may be rewarded with sightings that will stay with you forever. Each drive offers its own story, a new chapter in the timeless drama of the wild. Overnight at Keekorok Lodge, Meals : Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

We will leave for Nairobi by morning to catch our return flIght. You will be transferred to the airport for you flight 3 hrs prior to flight departure time.

A very enjoyable tour to Masai Mara with DCP! The logistics were great, down to the last detail, ensuring full comfort. The sightings were the stuff of dreams. I felt like I was working with National Geographic :D. The Olympus gear that we were provided for the trip was the best in class and it ensured we were able to capture all that we saw very well. Thanks to team DCP. Looking forward to more trips
