Day 2: Explore Maasai Mara National Reserve

Head to the Mara River again with hopes of seeing the wildebeest crossing (Jul-Sep). If you have seen crossing yesterday, you can choose to return to the river or go around the Mara in search of the big 5 you have not spotted plus more of other resident wildlife. Again, you will have picnic lunches in the Reserve as you scale the Mara beauty. Return to the camp for dinner & overnight.
Optional Activities:
1. Early morning balloon safaris. You will be dropped off at the takeoff site by the balloon company and picked up from your landing site by our safari driver. Balloon safaris are a romantic and evocative way of experiencing the wilderness of East Africa, as you gracefully and silently fly over the plains teeming with herds of wildlife in the early morning. Typically, a balloon safari begins at break of dawn, about 6 am, and lasts for around 1 hour, during which you will fly over parts of the vast Masai Mara plain, seeing the magnificent wildlife below, spread over several square kilometers of the reserve. Balloon flights are available daily in Masai Mara and take off from designated sites where the disturbance to animals is kept to a minimum. The flight is followed by a champagne breakfast “in the bush”, with a well laid out seating arrangement and waiters on hand, to give you a fitting final to your memorable flight in the wild. Then you will start a game drive again with our driver guide. Picnic lunch offers wonderful scenery. The lunch box is packed by the hotel you stay. After lunch you will continue with game drive. The cost is USD505 per adult.

2. In the afternoon game drive, you can visit a village of the Masai people to witness the singing and dancing that are part of their daily lives and sacred rituals. A glimpse into their homes and social structure is a poignant experience. The cost is USD 30 per adult.

Frequently Asked Questions
  • There is a very good chance! Kenya’s Maasai Mara and Tanzania’s Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater are among the best places in Africa to spot the Big Five: lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhino. While sightings of leopards and rhinos can be more rare, our experienced guides maximize your chances by knowing where to go and when.

  • Pack lightweight, neutral-colored clothing, a warm layer for chilly mornings, a sun hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, insect repellent, binoculars, a camera, and comfortable walking shoes. Don’t forget a refillable water bottle, personal medications, and travel documents. Many lodges offer laundry services, so you can pack light.

  • Absolutely. Kenya and Tanzania are very welcoming to families, and many lodges and safari operators (like Breezy Tours and Travel) offer child-friendly accommodations, meals, and guides. Game drives are designed with safety in mind, and lodges often offer special educational activities for kids. We also provide child car seats, shorter drives, and flexible schedules for young travelers.

  • Yes, most international travelers need a visa to enter both countries. Kenya: Apply for an e-visa online at evisa.go.ke before arrival. Tanzania: You can apply online at eservices.immigration.go.tz or get a visa on arrival at major entry points. Always check the latest requirements based on your nationality before you travel.

  • The best time for safari in both Kenya and Tanzania is during the dry seasons — June to October and January to February. These months offer excellent wildlife viewing, especially the Great Migration in the Maasai Mara (Kenya) and Serengeti (Tanzania) between July and October. However, both countries are year-round destinations with different highlights in each season.
