Meal Plan: Dinner
Accommodation: Wildebeest Eco Camp
Today shortly after breakfast we shall fly to Maasai Mara National Reserve north of the Serengeti – Mara Ecosystem via the Nairobi Wilson Airport.
With our sturdy 4×4 vehicles, experienced guides, and drivers, we take you on a 2-day adventure of a lifetime, get up close to Africa’s big 5 and along the way see a myriad of birds and small mammals from the elusive leopard to the even more elusive and shy civet cat, allow nature to unfold in front of you with predators on the prowl and prey on the run. These game drives will be scheduled in the morning and late afternoons on a shared basis in the vehicles.
You will also be treated to a nature-guided walk within the camp.
Masai Mara National Reserve
The Serengeti–Maasai Mara ecosystem is, amongst much else, famed for the dramatic migration of its 1,000,000-plus wildebeest and 750,000-or-so zebras with hooves pounding the plains and the intense attention that migration gets from predators, both mammalian and reptilian.
Up here in the system’s north, the landscapes are grandly varied but tend to be greener (which is why the migration heads up here, in search of water), with somewhat less savannah than in the south.
Ilkeliani Camp
We will be staying in the newly rebuilt Ilkeliani Camp right on the ages of the talek river in the mara. The old camp was swept away by the floods of 2020 when the talek river broke its banks.
The new camp is modern in design with raised decks but complementing the surrounding environment. The colors, fabrics and materials will have neutral tones keeping with the sweeping savannahs of the Mara.
The well-appointed large spacious en-suite facilities plus the extensive private veranda complete what is genuinely a stunning concept.
From our dining area, we serve a full English breakfast, a 3-course lunch and dinner. Tea and Coffee is also available.
