3-Day Kenya Safari Tour by Wildaxis Africa Tours Ltd
Offered by - Wildaxis Africa Tours Ltd
Tour Features
Experience the magic of the Maasai Mara National Reserve without breaking the bank on this thrilling three-day budget safari from Nairobi. The Maasai Mara is Kenya's most celebrated wildlife destination — a vast, golden wilderness where lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, and buffalo roam freely across the open plains. Home to the world-famous Great Wildebeest Migration and consistently delivering some of Africa's finest Big Five game viewing, the Mara is a bucket-list destination for every wildlife lover. Staying at a comfortable budget camp inside or on the edge of the reserve, this itinerary delivers the full Maasai Mara experience at an affordable price — proof that an extraordinary African safari does not have to come with an extraordinary price tag.

Overnight Maasai Mara camp.

- Day 2 - Full Day Maasai Mara National Reserve
Full day in the Maasai Mara with morning and afternoon game drives — the highlight of the safari. Depart camp at sunrise for the morning game drive when big cats are most active. Search for cheetah families on termite mounds, leopards in acacia trees, and lion prides with cubs. In season (July–October), head to the Mara River to witness the legendary wildebeest river crossings — one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on Earth. Afternoon drive through the reserve's diverse habitats including the Mara Triangle and sand river circuits. Packed lunch in the bush. Return to camp for dinner. Overnight Maasai Mara camp.
Meals & Drinks: No meals selected
- Day 3 - Maasai Mara → Nairobi
Final sunrise game drive before breakfast — predators are most active at dawn and the early morning golden light makes for outstanding photography. Return to camp for breakfast and check-out. Depart the Mara and drive back to Nairobi (approx. 5 hours via Narok). Stop for lunch en route at a local restaurant. Arrive Nairobi by late afternoon. Drop-off at hotel or agreed point.

Getting There

Kenya's second international Airport is Moi International Airport (MBA), located 9km/6mi west of Mombasa, but aside from flights to Zanzibar, this is primarily used for domestic and charter flights.From Nairobi or Mombasa, one can fly or drive between reserves, or opt to do a bit of both. Most domestic flights out of Nairobi depart from Wilson Airport (WIL), 6km/4mi south of Nairobi.
