Camping Scenic Drive Wilderness Trail CultureOur guide and driver pick you up a the airport or at your hotel. We start making our way down to the beautiful Great Rift Valley and stop once at the Rift Valley View Point to enjoy a great view over the plains of Kenya. Around lunchtime, we arrive in our camp in the Mara, fresh up and have lunch. This afternoon we go for an evening game drive into the National Reserve and start searching for the awesome animals the Mara is famous for. Hopefully, we are very lucky to see lions and cheetah hunting for their dinner.

Day 2Mara River
Activities Included
Animal Tracking Camping Scenic Drive Township tour Wilderness Trail CultureWe start very early with breakfast and try to be at the gate right at the opening hours. This is the best time to track wild animals and probably find one or the other while hunting or enjoying breakfast. We make our way up to the Mara River, where - during the month of July to September - the great migration of wildebeests and zebras is taking place. Here we have a picnic lunch. Afterward, we continue our drive through the Mara and search for the Big 5. Later we return to camp, relax and visit the neighboring Maasai village. This trip is included and you'll get to know everything about this very traditional tribe of Kenya. Depending on your interests we can also go on a walk to explain more about herbs or animal tracks. We have dinner at our camp and sleep here.
Day 3Hot air balloon ride
Activities Included
Ballooning Game drive CultureToday you will have to wake up early for your hot air balloon ride, but this waking up is totally worth it. You arrive at the launch site before sunset and see how the big balloons awake to life. The sun rises and so do you. Approximately one hour you will float above the Mara plains and try to spot whoever is around there in the morning. Your balloon lands and you are brought to the best breakfast restaurant you have probably been in. Pancakes, eggs, fruits, and champagne. No wishes are left behind when you sit in the middle of the bush and enjoy your morning coffee. You will be met by your guide now and go for another extensive game drive. In the evening our camp arranged everything for a bush dinner. One last chance to enjoy the sunset and enjoy an evening in the savannah you will never forget.

We have lunch on the way and stop for a boat ride on the lake. In the afternoon we arrive in Nairobi saying bye to each other.
