He explained many interesting things along the way. We had a beautiful morning with Daniel and I can't wait to bring my family to experience this tour.

3 Days Maasai Mara Guided Safari from Nairobi

3.3 Days Maasai Mara Guided Safari from Nairobi

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 195 reviews · from $196

Budget 3-day Maasai Mara safari from Nairobi with small-group game drives, ensuite tent camp, and a Maasai village visit.

“We upgraded to a Land Cruiser/Jamba Mara accommodations and didn’t regret a thing. The Jambo Mara was a huge step up from the basic tent camp offered. While it wasn’t quite a 3 star hotel, the staff was amazing, food was good, and the room were very cool glass houses. We also chose to pay $20/person to visit the Masai tribe. This was a must do in my opinion. Outstanding cultural experience. Regarding the game viewing, we got very lucky the 1st evening and saw a ton of animals. I was concerned we’d be bored the next day. That couldn’t have been further from the truth. Sooo many amazing animals.…”
