4 Days Independent Explorer Midrange Safari to Maasai Mara from Nairobi

Your solo traveller safari begins with a personal pickup from your Nairobi hotel, airport or agreed location. You will travel approximately 270 kilometres to Maasai Mara, taking around 5½ to 6½ hours depending on road and traffic conditions. The journey crosses the Great Rift Valley escarpment, agricultural highlands, rural centres, pastoral land and open savannah. Our guide will provide a clear briefing and include practical stops along the route. After lunch and check-in at your midrange accommodation, you will enjoy an afternoon game drive lasting approximately 2½ to 3 hours and covering around 25 to 45 kilometres through grassland, acacia-dotted plains and seasonal water channels.

After breakfast, you will leave with packed lunch for a game drive lasting approximately 8 to 10 hours and covering around 80 to 120 kilometres. Our guide will explore open savannah, riverine woodland, marshland, short-grass plains and acacia zones while searching for lions, elephants, cheetahs, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras and other wildlife. A private solo safari allows you to decide which sightings deserve more time, while a shared departure creates opportunities to meet other travellers. You will enjoy lunch at a designated picnic location before continuing with afternoon wildlife viewing.
