Safari details;
Day 1
Kenya SafarisToday you will take a scheduled flight to the Masai Mara arriving that afternoon into Musiara airstrip, where a vehicle and guide from Offbeat Mara Camp will meet you and take you on a game drive back to camp.
Offbeat Mara Camp is a 12 bed luxury semi-permanent camp situated on Mara North Conservancy, north of the Masai Mara Game Reserve. This unspoilt part of Masailand is an area full of wildlife but far from any lodge. Offbeat Mara Camp employs and trains local Masai guides and works with the community employing many in the camp staff. The Mara offers amazing game viewing throughout the year and features the annual wildebeest migration in July – September.
Offbeat Mara Double TentThe camp sleeps only twelve guests in six large tents – three doubles and three twins. Each tent has its own en-suite bathroom with hot bucket showers, wash basins and flush loos. The spacious tents are all furnished with large, hand made cedar beds, 24 hour solar lighting and the finest linen. Informal dining is hosted in the mess tent or around the campfire. Delicious English breakfasts, lighter lunches and three course dinners are served each evening. Guests can also relax in the bar and living room tent, which is furnished with comfortable sofas, a writing desk, library and fully stocked bar.
This afternoon you will head out in custom made Landcrusiers into the Mara North Conservancy where the game viewing is superb and the chances of seeing the big cats are very high. Sundowners will be set up with a campfire and fully stocked bar, overlooking the Masai Mara ecosystem and a breathtaking way to finish the day! On return to camp there will be hot showers and a sumptuous dinner served in the candle lit mess tent.
Day 2
This morning after an early wakeup call of tea or coffee you will head out for a full day with packed breakfast and lunch, to the main Masai Mara Reserve. You will head to the Mara River and visit one of the main crossing points for the wildebeest and zebra as they brave the crocodile infested waters in search of greener pastures.
Today will provide superb photographic opportunities and game viewing will without doubt be spectacular, especially during migration months
Day 3
Today, after a full English breakfast in camp you will head to a local village to see traditional life of a Masai herdsman. There will also be the opportunity to purchase some local crafts and jewelry. A visit to the nearby guiding schokenya wildlife safarisol is also well worth it – all of the guides at Offbeat Mara started here.
After lunch back in camp, you will head out on your last game drive with sundowners, returning to camp just after dark and in time for hot showers and dinner.
Day 4
This morning, after breakfast, you will take your scheduled flight back to Wilson Airport, Nairobi.
