Itinerary in detail
Majestic Mara
Day 1: Arrival in the Mara
Fly directly into the Masai Mara, where golden plains and acacia trees set the stage. Settle into your tented camp and head out on your first afternoon drive — children thrilled as zebras, giraffes, and gazelles appear against the horizon. Evening by the fire under a sky full of stars.
Day 2: Sunrise Over the Savannah
Wake to the sounds of the bush and set off at dawn. Spot elephants, lions, and cheetahs moving through the grasslands. Return for a family breakfast and downtime at camp before an afternoon drive filled with more encounters and stories from your guide.
Day 3: Safari & Junior Rangers
Morning game drive tailored for kids — shorter, playful, and full of discovery. Back at camp, little ones can join “Junior Ranger” activities, learning tracks and bird calls, while parents enjoy some quiet by the pool. Evening drive followed by marshmallow roasting at the fire.
Day 4: Culture & Connection
Visit a Maasai village to meet local families and try beadwork. Children learn about bush life while parents enjoy rich cultural exchanges. Evening game drive through the glowing savannah before a lantern-lit dinner at camp.
Day 5: Farewell to the Mara
A final sunrise safari captures the wild one last time. After breakfast, fly back to Nairobi and spend the night in a luxury city hotel — a pause before your island journey.

Fly to Mahé and settle into your beachfront villa. The afternoon is free to unwind — children playing in the warm shallows while you adjust to island rhythm.
