Safari Itinerary

On arrival at Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, you will be met by an Asilia driver who will transfer you by private vehicle to the domestic airport, Wilson Airport. Fly from here to the Masai Mara, a journey of approximately 1 hour (15kg luggage limit per person; soft bags required for all flights on this itinerary). A guide from Encounter Mara will meet you here and game drive you back to camp, offering the perfect introduction to the vast savannah plains and stopping to watch any wildlife you encounter on the way. Settle into your tent and enjoy lunch and time to relax. After afternoon tea and cake, head out on a game drive to search for big cats and other wildlife in the Mara Naboisho Conservancy.

This charming tented camp blends the adventure of sleeping under canvas with plenty of creature comforts. The camp is in a secluded part of the Mara Naboisho Conservancy, where guests spend their days exploring on game drives, and visits to the local Maasai communities. There are ten spacious guest tents, each with a daybed on the veranda and en-suite bathroom with hot shower. Between game drives, relax on the viewing deck beneath a thatched roof and watch wildlife visiting the salt lick nearby. In the evenings, guests chat around the campfire before delicious three-course dinners.

Night drives offer a unique chance to search for nocturnal species as well as predators on the move.

After breakfast, you will be driven to the airstrip to begin your journey across the border into the Serengeti in Tanzania. You will fly to Migori near the border, where a driver and vehicle will meet you and drive you across the land border, stopping to complete immigration formalities.

From there it’s a short distance to Tarime on the Tanzania side, to arrive in time for your flight into the Serengeti. The whole journey takes approximately two and a half hours and, after having breakfast in the Masai Mara, you’ll arrive at your Serengeti camp in time for lunch and a well-earned rest. In the afternoon, go out on a game drive to explore the vast savannah with your guide from Ubuntu Migration Camp.

UBUNTU MIGRATION CAMP

Known as a mobile camp, Ubuntu Migration Camp moves around the Serengeti several times each year to locate itself as close as possible to the predicted location of The Great Migration herds of up to 2 million wildebeest, zebra and gazelle. As with all wildlife sightings, viewing of the migration cannot be guaranteed, but the camp aims to give you good chances of being in the right location at the right time. There are eight large tents, each with a veranda and en-suite bathroom with a hot bucket shower. There is also a lounge tent and dining tent, although meals are served under the stars whenever possible.

After lunch and a little time to relax, you will go out on an afternoon game drive and stop for sundowner drinks and snacks. Night-drive back to camp, watching out for nocturnal species such as the bat-eared fox, or predators such as lion, that start to prowl as darkness falls.
