Day
2: Nairobi – Fly Maasai Mara Game Reserve
This
morning we fly to Maasai Mara, winging our way over
the scenic Great Rift Valley and the unspoiled savannah
that the Mara shares with the legendary Serengeti.
Below
us lies the Africa of your dreams! A country of rolling
grasslands, dense thickets and groves of acacia woodland,
the Mara is home to an incredible variety of wildlife.
Deep
forest grows along the Mara River and its tributaries,
where many hippos and crocodiles bask lazily in the
sunlight. Here we find the largest population of lions
in Africa, carefully watched by their neighbors, the
stunning Coke’s hartebeest, large herds of topi
and the stately African buffalo.
Black
rhino are also to be found. Huge herds of elephant
often block the roads. Glorious creatures are everywhere—
it is difficult to decide where to look first!
This
is also the home of the Maasai people. The Maasai
guarding his cattle is an enduring and proud figure
across the plains of East Africa. Livestock represents
status, wealth and livelihood to these ancient people.
Here we will also thoroughly enjoy a visit to a Masai
village, learning about their tribal social systems,
customs and the place of the Maasai in today’s
Africa.
The
residents live in their Manyatta, or village, much
as they have for centuries and we will have an opportunity
to see the interior of these mud-hut homes, spotless
and unadorned, contrasted with the Maasai themselves,
bedecked with brilliantly colored beads and cloths.
The
bright smiles and warmth of the tribe once considered
among the fiercest warriors on earth will surely win
your heart. As will your accommodations tonight at
the utterly glorious Bateleur Camp or equally stunning
Governor’s Il Moran Camp.

Day 4 : Masai Mara Game Reserve
Explore
the endless plains of the Maasai Mara on two daily game
drives in open 4x4 safari vehicles. During our stay
in the Mara, we get to see the Mara not only from the
ground, but from the air, as we take an early morning
Hot-Air Balloon Safari.
On
other safaris this thrilling experience is offered at
an additional expense…on The African 'Spice' Golf
Safari it is our pleasure to invite you on this amazing
journey as our guest. You will drift serenely over the
great herds as birds of prey swoop past. Elephants and
giraffe cast a curious glance your way.
The
beauty of the wilderness as seen from the early morning
African sky is an unparalleled experience. Upon our
descent, a sumptuous champagne breakfast is served on
the plains that you just so recently observed from your
perch high above.
The sheer enormity of the Maasai Mara offers endless
opportunities for excitement, including one of the most
glorious evening events of the safari—sundowners
on the Mara Escarpment, where cocktails await us deep
in the bush.
Soon
the natural world is a dark velvet cape all around us
with only the firelight and the stars in the ancient
African sky to light the night. As the warmth of the
African day gives way to the cool of evening, we experience
a rare peace and beauty, and find ourselves as one with
the land and her inhabitants.
