Review of a budget Maasai Mara safari from Nairobi, with Big Five drives, tent camping, Maasai culture, costs, transport, and practical tips.
“I had an amazing experience! Sammy was extremely kind, knowledgeable and the best tour guide I have ever come across. I felt day 1 was ok, however, day 2 made up for it. Please make yourself aware of the migration season for an even better experience. The accomodation is very basic, if you are a light sleeper I do not recommend staying on the camp site, I would advise staying in one of the lodges. I got to see so many animals and truly had a great experience. Thank you so much”

“The right amount of safari time. The camp grounds are clean with good food quality (no wifi, specific hours for electricity, 24/7 hot water, and very very friendly staff). Our guide [Kevin] was smart, professional, easy-going, and really energetic about us having a good time.”
A practical review of a 3-day budget safari from Nairobi with Maasai Mara game drives, ensuite tented lodging, meals, and key extra costs.
“We upgraded to a Land Cruiser/Jamba Mara accommodations and didn’t regret a thing. The Jambo Mara was a huge step up from the basic tent camp offered. While it wasn’t quite a 3 star hotel, the staff was amazing, food was good, and the room were very cool glass houses. We also chose to pay $20/person to visit the Masai tribe. This was a must do in my opinion. Outstanding cultural experience. Regarding the game viewing, we got very lucky the 1st evening and saw a ton of animals. I was concerned we’d be bored the next day. That couldn’t have been further from the truth. Sooo many amazing animals.…”
