Welcome the New Year on a 2-day midrange Maasai Mara safari with Nairobi transfers, comfortable lodging and exciting morning and afternoon game drives.
Begin the year with adventure on this 2-day midrange Maasai Mara New Year safari from Nairobi. Our safari combines scenic road transfers, a comfortable overnight stay and afternoon and morning game drives across one of Kenyaβs most famous wildlife destinations. With our professional guide, you will search for lions, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras and other animals while sharing an unforgettable New Year celebration in the African wilderness.
Our guide will meet you in Nairobi and begin your midrange Maasai Mara New Year safari with a scenic journey through the Kenyan countryside. Upon arrival at the selected lodge or tented camp, you will check in, enjoy lunch and have time to refresh before entering the reserve. During the afternoon game drive, our guide will search for lions, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras and antelopes across the open savannah. You will watch the final light of the day spread over the Mara and capture photographs to mark your New Year adventure. In the evening, you will return to the accommodation for dinner and any celebration arranged by the property.
You will welcome the morning with a game drive through the peaceful landscapes of Maasai Mara. Our guide will follow wildlife tracks and explore productive habitats while you search for predators, grazing herds and colourful birds. The experience offers a refreshing and meaningful beginning to the year, surrounded by nature rather than city traffic and crowded events. After the game drive, you will enjoy breakfast or a packed meal before checking out. Our New Year midrange safari then begins its return journey to Nairobi, with drop-off at your hotel or another agreed location.
