6.Day Trip to Maasai Mara Reserve & Maasai village

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 49 reviews · 13 hours · from $180

A fast 13-hour Nairobi day trip to Maasai Mara for wildlife spotting, Big Five searches, and an optional Maasai village visit.

“Pick-up was on time and all the planned events happened smoothly. If you have a tight schedule and willing to spend 4 hour drive to and from the reserve it is definitively worth it. You will spend about 3 to 4 hours inside the reserve but time will fly with all the sightings and beautiful landscapes. We were able to see elephants, giraffes, lions, cheetahs, baboons, hippos, wildebeests, and crows. Finally, the Masai village was incredible with a very warm welcome from the community.”

“I was picked up with a car that was old and dirty. There was no air conditioning and when I asked to turn it on, it didn’t work very well. Driver insisted on having the windows open. This is OK however, not when the adjacent trucks are bellowing exhaust fumes into the car. Driver had a terrible cough and was spitting out of the window constantly. On way back driver stopped to buy plants for his house while I was waiting in the car. Interesting to see the village and the way of life. Maasai who was giving tour telling me about how the live etc, was constantly leaving to…”

9.Masai Village Cultural Day Tour from Nairobi

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 17 reviews · 7 - 8 hours · from $42Best value

Experience a guided Maasai village day trip from Nairobi with traditional dance, Manyatta visits, goat milking, and craft shopping.

“I had high expectations for this trip which were not met let alone exceeded. Firstly we had to wait 40 minutes at a pick up spot for people who were late. I’m sorry, 5-10 I understand and we give grace, but 40 minutes is unacceptable. It meant that we had to rush to ensure that the tour was finished at 12pm to give us a fighting chance of making our next tour. Come 12pm the guide was silly dallying not promptly ending the tour and we ended up leaving at 12.30. The guide said not to worry he will get us back to the hotel by 2.30pm as he will…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 11 reviews · 1 day · from $190

Nairobi to Amboseli day trip for big wildlife sightings, elephant herds, Mount Kilimanjaro views, swamp birding, and optional Maasai village.

“Die Fahrt war lang..aber das weiß man ja vorher... Unser Fahrer..Peter..war leider sehr lustlos...der ganze Ausflug verlief leider nicht so wie beschrieben... Das Observatorium wurde nicht von ihm angefahren...ebenso gab es keine Mittagspause im Park...bis wir uns umsehen waren wir wieder am Gate..dort baten wir den Fahrer wenigstens anzuhalten damit wir auf die Toilette könnten. Auf Anfrage hieß es dann wir gegen später essen....erst das Masai-Dorf. War ganz interessant..aber einmal reicht. Die Sachen dort werden maßlos überteuert verkauft meiner Meinung nach...aber wenn man das Dorf damit unterstützt....ok . Danach ging's weiter...und um 15.30 gab's dann endlich etwas zu essen für uns Wenn...”
