Kenya & Tanzania Safari Expedition with Masai Mara National Reserve & Zanzibar

Your Small Group Discovery Tour begins! Welcome to Nairobi, gateway to your dream safari. Hotel rooms are available for mid-afternoon check-in. Information about tomorrow’s adventure will be provided upon arrival.

Jewel of Kenya This morning, travel with your Globus driver-guide to the Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya’s most famous game area. “The Mara,” as it is called by locals, is part of the Serengeti ecosystem and boasts a strong permanent population of game. When the Great Migration of wildebeest and zebra arrive, typically from August to early November, their population grows by almost 2 million, providing a bountiful food source for predators such as lion, cheetah, leopard, and hyena. After lunch at your lodge, set out on an afternoon game drive. Each night, enjoy a dinner experience showcasing delicious meals crafted by skilled chefs. (B,L,D) TOUR HIGHLIGHT ACCOMMODATION SPOTLIGHT Zebra Valley Mara Camp is a boutique luxury safari camp set in a wildlife-rich valley where antelope, zebra, giraffe, buffalo, elephants, and even big cats roam freely. During the Great Migration, herds often pass directly in front of the camp, a breathtaking sight. The camp’s main areas overlook the reserve and showcase stunning Mara sunsets, complemented by indoor and outdoor dining spaces, relaxing lounges, a fully stocked bar, library, TV lounge, gym, spa, swimming pool, and campfire area. This all-inclusive experience offers a subtle, memorable layer to your Mara experience.

Magical Mara Continue your Mara adventure with game drives in the cool early morning and soft light of late afternoon—the prime times to spot big cats and other active wildlife. For photographers, these hours offer the perfect glow. Guided by seasoned experts, you’ll journey through the magical Maasai Mara in search of the Big Five and the many creatures that call these plains home. Wildlife in the Mara is abundant: hippo, lion, hyena, zebra, wildebeest, elephant, and Cape buffalo all call this region home. During the hotter part of the day, enjoy free time to relax at the spa or swimming pool. (B,L,D) TOUR HIGHLIGHT SAVANNAH SYMPHONY What makes the Mara truly extraordinary is its remarkable concentration of wildlife. It is one of the few places where you can see the Big Five in a single day, witness cheetahs sprinting across open plains, or watch elephants grazing peacefully against a canvas of rolling savannah. Here, predators and prey coexist, offering unforgettable moments at every turn.

Dawn & Dusk Discoveries Another remarkable day unfolds in the Maasai Mara with two wildlife-rich game drives. The Mara comes alive with big cats on the move, herds grazing across the plains, and sweeping views that define this iconic landscape. Each drive offers new encounters and unforgettable moments in one of Africa’s most vibrant ecosystems. (B,L,D)
