Big Cat Safari - Masai Mara Jan '25 Batch 2


This is how we did our last expedition !

The Big Cat Safari is my personal favourite of all expeditions. Join me by January and explore Kenya !

Here are five reasons you should consider travelling with us:

  1. We stay right inside the Mara, which literally gives more time, specifically the extra time by dawn & dusks and more of wildlife activities.

  2. You will have full time expert guidance both on field and back at the camp. Be it related to wildlife or photography and post processing. All safari vehicles will be connected thro’ Walkie-talkie.

  3. We fly in and fly out of Mara in a safari flight, we do it in 45min instead of 7hrs of road drive, saving both time and energy, ultimately we get 12hrs extra that too inside Mara !

  4. We explore the savannah in a 7-seater modified Land Cruiser, with just 3 pax in it.. giving ample space to move-around, sight and shoot..

  5. Last but not least, a fly-in fly-out mara expedition at this price tag is a steal, do check it out.
