Your Kenya trip begins with a real highlight: You will be warmly picked up from your accommodation in Nairobi by your tour guide. Soon you'll leave the hustle and bustle of the capital behind and set off for one of the world's most legendary wildlife viewing destinations – the Masai Mara. After a short briefing, you'll travel west in a comfortable 4x4 Land Cruiser.

Your experienced guide will not only introduce you to the wildlife but also to the complex ecosystem of this extraordinary region. Even on the first day, you'll be amazed at how much there is to discover. As the sun sets in golden hues over the bush in the evening, you'll return to your authentic safari camp on the Talek River – the charming Base Camp Masai Mara, which will be your home in the heart of the wilderness for the next three nights.
