5 Days Kenya Migration Safari Overview
This quick Kenya Safari highlights the annual Masai Mara Migration; a wonder of nature.
While the Migration generally occurs between July and October each year, any time of year is exciting to be in the active Masai Mara: even in the off-season it’s common to spot lions on the prowl, giraffes staring over the tops of trees, and families of elephants playfully splashing at watering holes.
This tour includes 4 days of adventure in the Masai Mara Game Reserve, with an option to fly in/fly out instead of driving from Nairobi.
5 Days Kenya Migration Safari Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival-Nairobi
Upon arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, you will be met by a representative and transferred to your Nairobi-area hotel.
Enjoy a relaxing evening or explore the city. If you arrive early, you could visit a local art gallery or try some famous Kenyan barbecue.
{Dinner and Overnight included}


Day 2: Masai Mara National Reserve
After breakfast and a short briefing with your driver-guide, depart on your safari to the Masai Mara.
The drive takes approximately 5 hours over beautiful landscapes, and you should arrive at your accommodation in time for a hot lunch, or pack a picnic lunch to head straight for a game drive.
Alternatively, if you choose to fly, it is a mere 45 minutes flight from Wilson Domestic Airport. Additional fees apply.
The Masai Mara is famous for predators such as lions and leopards and herds of ungulates, including zebras and wildebeests. Spend the afternoon viewing wildlife before returning to your accommodations for a lovely sunset or an evening swim.

Enjoy a picnic lunch and wildlife viewing until sunset.

Day 4: Masai Mara-Migration Trailing
Spend the day trailing the wildebeest migration and searching for elephants, buffalo, and predators like lions from morning to afternoon. You may consider retiring early to enjoy the swimming pool or other amenities at your lodge, or continue wildlife viewing until evening.
Option to book an early morning hot air balloon ride to sail over the area and get an aerial safari to remember! Must book in advance, so contact us for details.

Day 5: Masai Mara-Nairobi
After breakfast, return to Nairobi. Option to fly back (landing at Wilson Airport) or to drive (approximately 5 hrs), with a transfer either to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, or your next accommodation.

Our Travellers Reviews
Outstanding tour operator
I can't say enough good things about Bryson and Petit Maasai. Bryson handled our last-minute trip to Tanzania like he'd been working on it for months instead of a handful of days after we connected about a week before our family arrived.
Awsome
Exciting trip!!! Bryson made a private tour with masai mbome & we had a rest in mountains near Ngorongoro - everything was awsome!!! Morevover, all of our individual things we re made with great discount!Mike is great ranger too!
Kilimanjaro With Petit Maasai safaris- 5 stars!!!
We book 7 days Kilimanjaro with Petit Maasai safaris after having the safari with another company and we made it with a brilliant guide to the summit. We took the Lemosho route, starting in the rain forest and approached the camp via various tents campsites.
A great experience!
We did a safari in the northern parks of Tanzania with Petit Maasai Safaris and it was a great experience! The guide and the cook were really professional and nice with us, trying to make us feel comfortable and to satisfy our requests. Thanks a lot!
