With delegates attracted here from around the world, they come for the friendliness of the people, the modern hotel facilities, and the vast array of fascinating options available throughout the city.

Ashnil Mara Camp is a large resort-style tented safari lodge in Kenya’s Maasai Mara National Reserve. The camp overlooks the confluence of the Mara and Olkeju Rivers, with forty luxury tents set amongst the riverine forest. This is a fairly new addition to the region, with a modern feel and more of a hotel atmosphere than that of a traditional and remote small safari camp. Having said that, it will appeal to those who appreciate an upbeat family-friendly lodge with all the modern facilities and the peace of mind that comes with knowing that the entire property is fenced.

DAY 3: MASAI MARA NATIONAL GAME RESERVE

You will not want to miss a single moment of your day in the Masai Mara, so we suggest an early wake-up call this morning.  The early morning game drive often offers you the very best chance to see an excellent variety of wildlife on the move in the cool of the dawn. In between, you will have the option of visiting a local Masai Village where you will be able to interact and learn more about the colorful culture of this nomadic pastoralist community.

The Masai Mara National Reserve is in the southwestern part of Kenya and forms part of the greater eco-system that encompasses the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. The Masai Mara is one of the best-known and most visited reserves in Africa. The park is surrounded by concession areas and tribal lands of the Masai tribespeople. These are unfenced from the Mara and act as a buffer zone for the National Park and form part of the migration area. The Masai Mara consists of open savannah, rolling grasslands, and undulating hills. July to September sees the annual migration of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle coming from the plains of the Serengeti. Driven by dry conditions in the Serengeti and led by lightning and thunder to the north, huge herds of mammals cross the Tanzanian border and rivers to reach Mara's grasslands.

Tariffs quoted are valid for 2023 wherever possible. Not all service providers release or guarantee their rates well in advance and therefore the itinerary cost is subject to increase. Many factors may increase the cost of an expedition and Wild Nomads Expeditions is not liable to cover such increases. Factors influencing cost increases include, but are not limited to, vendors price increases (including gorilla permits and park/conservation fees), government tax increases and statements, fuel increases, itinerary amendments, availability restrictions, etc.  We will endeavour to provide as much notice as possible and assure you that we will do all we can to prevent or limit any increases.

 

East Africa (Uganda. Kenya, Rwanda, and Tanzania) is a developing region, and whilst Wild Nomads Expeditions endeavors to make the itinerary as accurate as possible, it should be considered as an approximate agenda of activities rather than a rigid schedule. Trip itineraries are subject to revision due to weather, trail conditions, government and local restrictions, wildlife movement, and other reasons beyond our control. In addition, frequent reconnaissance of routes sometimes determines a better routing. We do our best to ascertain the most scenic and convenient route possible throughout our client’s safari with us.
