Horseback safari in the Masai Mara 2021
Mal d’Afrique is a state of mind, it is the poignant memory of a very special light, never seen before or after anywhere else on the planet, which appears in the late afternoon and covers everything as if it were a blanket of gold. Kenya is a country whose beauty takes your breath away: forests, snow-capped mountains, arid valleys… Come and ride with us in the beautiful Masai Mara National Park: a boundless savannah dotted with shady acacias. This area is the extension of the Serengheti Park in Tanzania and is considered by many to be the sanctuary of wildlife. For those lucky enough to go there in August, they can attend one of the most beautiful shows in the world: the great migration.

Day dedicated to two horse safaris looking for the fauna that inhabits this area of Naboisho, especially buffaloes and baboons. Meals and overnight in mobile camp.
Wake up very early to leave for a long day on horseback in the coolness that anticipates the sunrise, heading west, crossing the wide Koiyaki plain. Here we will mainly meet ostriches, hyenas and various types of gazelles. We will descend from the Motorogi shoe, to reach Enjoyanai where we will stop for a picnic lunch. Rest in the shade and back on the saddle once the heat is over to ride along Olare Orok. Dinner and overnight at the camp.
We will leave the horses to rest and take a 4X4 photo safari and with a little luck we will find the lions that usually inhabit this area. Return to the camp for lunch and in the afternoon horseback safari, by 4X4 or on foot. Dinner and overnight at the camp.
Hearty breakfast and ride north, passing through the Ololituroto valley, from which you will have an incredible 360 degree view. Picnic lunch in the Olomai forest and after the siesta we will ride to discover the Mara river, inhabited by crocodiles and hippos. Dinner and overnight at the camp.
Safari on horseback or in 4X4 to discover another wonderful area of savannah: the concentration of animals will leave you breathless: waterbuck, jackals, zebras, antelopes, elephants and giraffes. There will be the opportunity to jump over some trunks fallen due to the elephants. Lunch in the camp, dinner and overnight in the camp.
Ultimate safari on horseback or by 4X4 along the banks of the river. Long gallops in the valleys of Serian and Maternity. Brunch at the camp, greetings and departure in time for your flight to Nairobi at 4.15 pm lasting about an hour. Transfer to the international airport (plan a flight in the evening). Possibility to continue with a seaside stay on the coast.
