Best Time to Visit
Year-round, though Jun-Oct and Jan-Feb offer the clearest game viewing
High Season - Jun-Oct & Jan-Feb
Dry weather makes for the clearest game viewing, with animals gathering at rivers and waterholes. Masai Mara river crossings peak July-October. Expect busier parks and the highest rates of the year.
Low Season - Mar-May & Nov
The "green season" brings lush scenery, dramatic skies and newborn wildlife, with far fewer visitors and the lowest accommodation rates. Expect afternoon showers, muddier roads and a handful of camps closed for maintenance.
What to Expect
This safari is built for two - a private vehicle and guide for the whole trip, exclusive-use suites, and the Masai Mara's Big Five game drives paired with romantic touches: a champagne welcome, a bush picnic, a couples spa treatment and a candlelit bush dinner under the stars.
