Experience the Masai Mara in comfort and style on this exclusive 4 Days Masai Mara Luxury Flying Safari, staying for three nights at the iconic Governors’ Camp.
Instead of spending several hours travelling by road from Nairobi, fly by scheduled light aircraft directly into the Masai Mara. On arrival, your safari begins almost immediately, with game viewing on the way to camp and during your afternoon and morning game drives.
Governors’ Camp is beautifully located along the banks of the Mara River, inside the Masai Mara National Reserve, placing you in an exceptional wildlife environment from the moment you arrive.
The Mara is renowned for its high concentration of wildlife, spectacular open grasslands and outstanding opportunities to encounter Lion, Leopard, Cheetah, Elephant, Buffalo, Giraffe, Zebra, Wildebeest, Hippo and numerous species of birds.
During the Great Migration season, generally between July and October, the Mara can also witness the arrival of enormous herds of Wildebeest and Zebra moving north from the Serengeti ecosystem. The exact timing and location of the herds varies each year according to rainfall and grazing conditions.
Safari Highlights:
Fly into the Masai Mara: Travel by scheduled light aircraft from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport and maximise your time in the wilderness instead of spending much of the day on the road.
Exceptional Big Cat Viewing: The Masai Mara is particularly renowned for its Lion, Leopard and Cheetah sightings, with the open grasslands providing excellent visibility.
Experience the Big Five: The Masai Mara ecosystem supports Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Buffalo and Rhino, although wildlife sightings are naturally never guaranteed.
Great Migration: Travel during the traditional migration season for the possibility of witnessing vast herds of Wildebeest and Zebra moving through the Mara ecosystem.
Optional Hot Air Balloon Safari: Rise before sunrise and float above the Masai Mara as the wilderness comes alive, followed by a bush breakfast in the reserve.
Stay at Governors’ Camp: Enjoy three nights at one of Kenya’s most iconic luxury tented camps, located beside the Mara River within the reserve.
Exceptional Wildlife Photography: The Mara’s open plains, dramatic skies, abundant wildlife and high concentration of predators make it an outstanding destination for wildlife photography.

Kenya's weather and climate offer a diverse and captivating experience for travelers throughout the year. Located near the equator, the country enjoys a predominantly tropical climate, making it a year-round destination. Coastal regions, like Mombasa and Diani, boast warm and humid conditions, perfect for beach lovers, with temperatures averaging around 30°C (86°F). Inland areas, including Nairobi, experience a more temperate climate, characterized by cooler nights and pleasant daytime temperatures, often hovering around 20-25°C (68-77°F). The best time to visit Kenya's renowned wildlife reserves, such as the Maasai Mara and Amboseli National Park, is during the dry season from June to October when animals gather around water sources for prime safari viewing. However, those seeking lush landscapes and baby animals should consider the wetter months from November to May. Kenya's climate caters to a wide range of interests, promising a memorable experience for every traveler.
