Game drive with a picnic lunch to enjoy under an acacia tree or by the river next to a pod of hippos, or head to Saruni Mara or Saruni Wild for some rest and relaxation.
Game drive later in the afternoon in both Lemek conservancy and Mara North Conservancy (MNC) – over 30,000 acres of plentiful, protected land bordering the Masai Mara National Reserve. Enjoy a completely different and less-explored corner of the Mara ecosystem in total privacy, brimming with wildlife.
Weather permitting, experience a bush dinner in the middle of the wilderness under the vast African sky, with Maasai warriors singing and dancing around the fire. Dinner and stay overnight.

Day 2: Saruni Mara / Saruni Wild

You will have an early morning game drive to look for the big cats and other predators of the Masai Mara, returning to the lodge or camp for lunch and treatments at the Maasai Wellbeing Space surrounded by teeming wildlife in a classic Masai Mara setting.
In the afternoon, a game drive will take you to a special area where the largest tower of giraffes can be seen, followed by dinner back at the lodge or camp and an optional night game drive. Dinner and stay overnight.

Day 3: Saruni Mara / Saruni Wild

Take walk through the valleys and plains surrounding Saruni Mara, accompanied by a vehicle, or a game drive up to the top of Kilileoni, the highest mountain in the Serengeti-Masai Mara ecosystem – led by your skilful and knowledgeable Maasai guides.
Following lunch, in the afternoon you will discover more of Mara North and its surrounding conservancies and experience first-hand what makes the Mara one of the most exciting wildernesses in the world, overlooking the immense plains surrounding you before heading back to the lodge or camp for a hearty dinner. Dinner and stay overnight.

Day 4: Saruni Mara / Saruni Wild

Venture through the plains of Mara North Conservancy in pursuit of the more rare and elusive species. Another wildlife-abundant game drive with a leisurely bush breakfast completes another exciting morning. Head back to Mara North for a late afternoon game drive, finishing your drive with refreshing sundowners overlooking the immense plains surrounding you before heading back to the lodge or camp for a heavy dinner.

Day 5: Alfajiri Villas

Visit the rhino sanctuary on the way to the airstrip and once again admire the hippos and crocodiles at the Mara River. The flight to Diani’s Ukunda leaves Mara at 1400hrs arriving in Ukunda at 1600hrs. An Alfajiri vehicle will be waiting to transfer you to the peace and calm awaiting 5 minutes away at the world-famous Alfajiri Villas.
Unwind from your journey by taking a refreshing dip in your private swimming pool, followed by a welcome sundowner on your lavish veranda overlooking from high the white sands of Diani beach and the Indian Ocean, cooled by the early evening tropical breezes. Enjoy an elegant seafood offering paired with exquisite wines before falling asleep to the lulling sound of the sea.

Day 6: Alfajiri Villas

Set off on a thrilling morning of the deep-sea fishing, trying your luck with a heavy line to hook a prized marlin.
Pack picnic lunch to enjoy at sea before returning home in the afternoon for a lazy siesta or a bit of retail therapy and souvenir shopping at the nearby shopping centre.
