Masai Mara Great Migration: Private 3–4 Day Fly-In Safari Experience

Witness the greatest wildlife spectacle on Earth — over a million wildebeest thundering across the Mara River — on a private fly-in safari from Mombasa to the world-famous Masai Mara. This is the ultimate bucket-list Africa moment.

What to expect

Fly from Mombasa's Moi International Airport to a private Mara airstrip in under 90 minutes. Transfer directly into the reserve where a private 4x4 and expert Maasai naturalist guide await. Game drives are calibrated around the migration's movements — river crossings, predator activity, and vast herds stretching to the horizon. Evenings are spent at a luxury tented camp under an infinite Kenyan sky, with candlelit bush dinners and the distant roar of lions.

Good to know

This multi-day extension requires disembarking and rejoining the ship at a future port — confirm your itinerary carefully and coordinate with Annest Kenya Safaris who specialise in cruise-passenger multi-day safaris. Migration peak is July–October; advance booking of 6–12 months is essential for premium camps. Single-supplement charges apply.
