3-Day Mara Serena Safari

If you’re short on time but still want a true African safari experience, this 3-day private driving safari to Masai Mara National Reserve is ideal. Masai Mara is famous for its dramatic wildebeest migration, large predator population, and endless savannah landscapes. As one of the most renowned game reserves in the world—and the filming location for BBC’s Big Cat Diaries—it offers unmatched opportunities to see lions, leopards, elephants, and more. This tour combines comfort and adventure while staying at the iconic Mara Serena Safari Lodge.

Day 1: Nairobi – Masai Mara National Reserve

Your journey begins with a scenic drive from Nairobi to Masai Mara. Arrive in time for lunch at the Mara Serena Safari Lodge, one of the park’s most stunningly located properties. After settling in, you’ll head out on your first game drive, where you may spot elephants, giraffes, gazelles, and the famous big cats. Return to the lodge for dinner and overnight stay.
