4 Day Fly In Safari - Masai Mara
This luxury 4 day Fly In Safari to the Masai Mara in Kenya, takes guests on an unforgetable safari to this world renowned game reserve. In this safari we make use of the Bateleur Camp - a premier camp in the area. The safari begins and ends in Nairobi, Kenya.
Day 01 - Nairobi - Masai Mara
Upon arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport you will be met and transferred to Wilson Airport, by road transfer of approximately 1 hour. At Wilson Airport you will board your scheduled flight with SafariLink to Kichwa Tembo airstrip in the Masai Mara, departing at 10h00. Upon arrival at Kichwa Tembo airstrip you will be met and transferred to the Bateleur Camp where you will spend (3) nights in a tent with en-suite facilities. Your stay includes three meals daily, soft drinks, house wines local brand spirit and beers, teas and coffees, refreshments on game drives, scheduled safari activities, return Kichwa Tembo airstrip transfers and emergency medical evacuation insurance.
Experience classic safari style, where wildlife adventures by day blend with elegant panache under canvas at night, at Bateleur Camp. Commanding sweeping views over some of the premier game viewing regions in the world, this intimate camp reflects the ambiance of the Kenyan explorers of the 20s and 30s. Verdant branches that open up onto an expansive panorama provide endless views of the Masai Mara as soon as you open your eyes in your vast wooden bed. Let the untouched landscapes take you back to the style and glamour of vintage Africa. Slip into a world of hardwood floors, polished silver and sparkling crystal juxtaposed against the romance of the open Mara plains, with their abundant herds of wildlife. Set just below the spot where the famous final scene from Out of Africa was filmed, Bateleur Camp overlooks the endless spaces of the Masai Mara, providing guests with sweeping views of this quintessential African landscape. Nestled deep in a belt of dense riverine forest, each tent is secluded by lush green vegetation, carving out a private, leafy enclave for every guest. When the dawn chorus of birds and monkeys begins outside, a gentle knock on the door brings a morning tray of steaming coffee. Step out of your elegant tented suited onto the private deck outside and watch the bush around you come to life. The en suite bathroom with its stone shower and warm wood furnishings prepares you for the day’s adventure. While away an hour or two in the deep leather chairs on the veranda, looking out onto the endless African plains. On a hot day, swap the shade of the forest for a dip in the sparkling lap pool. Guest areas bring in the vast open spaces, adding a touch of vintage safari elegance. Intriguing antiques, hand-crafted artefacts and keepsakes of bygone times mingle with cushy sofas and polished leather chairs. Shiny brass compasses, leather trunks and framed maps bring a poignant reminder of old world travellers on a similar journey, while bookshelves of bound tomes entertain and inform. The warm glow of torches and candles welcomes you home from your evening drive. Fine china, crystal and silver sparkle in the torchlight as the aromas of delicious meals waft on the breeze.
