4 Days Safari in Kenya
This 4 Days Safari in Kenya is a short tour you can book for the chance to explore the magnificent Masai Mara National Reserve. Four days offers a comfortable amount of time for travelers to fully explore the reserve. Those booking this safari between July and November have a higher chance of witnessing the Great Wildebeest Migration at its best. It is also possible to break up the drive with an overnight stay at Lake Nakuru National Park, Lake Naivasha, or Hell’s Gate National Park, though spending all three nights in the Masai Mara is a great way to maximise your time there.

Detailed Itinerary
Day 1: Transfer to Masai Mara National Reserve, Evening Game Drive
Your Kenya safari guide will pick you up from your hotel in Nairobi, or from the airport on arrival. After a warm welcome and a briefing on your four-day safari, you will transfer to the magical Masai Mara National Reserve.
You will drive through Kenya’s beautiful countryside, including Narok town, the nearest town to the reserve, arriving in time for lunch at your camp or lodge. Afterward, head out for a game drive later in the day, your first introduction to the magnificent Masai Mara. Return to the lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
Days 2 & 3: Full-Day Game Drives in Masai Mara National Reserve
Spend two full days on game drives through the Masai Mara, making the most of your safari. Look out for the reserve’s varied wildlife and birdlife, and take in the sheer beauty of the wilderness, with plenty of opportunity for photographs. If traveling in season, keep an eye out for the iconic wildebeest migration. Enjoy your lunches as picnics out in the wilderness, with dinner and overnight stays at the lodge, as above.
Optional activities: a Maasai cultural tour, for an authentic community experience, or a hot air balloon ride, complete with a champagne bush breakfast.
Day 4: Departure
Wake up to a hearty breakfast at your lodge or camp. With your packed lunch in hand, check out and transfer back to Nairobi, enjoying some last-minute game viewing in the reserve if your camp is located inside the Masai Mara. You will be dropped off at the airport for your outbound flight, or at your hotel of stay in Nairobi, bringing your 4 Day Safari in Kenya to an end.
