A single-base safari from Nairobi with four nights in the Masai Mara. The road journey takes most of a day in each direction, so the first and last days are mainly travel, with a game drive at one end. The days in between go to morning and late-afternoon game drives, or a full day out in the reserve with a packed lunch. A visit to a Maasai village can be added. Staying in one place means less packing and less time on the road.
