Questions

Can you drive us into the national park or reserve?

We drive you to your lodge or the park gate, where the road allows. Game drives inside the parks are done in your camp's safari vehicle.

Can you pick us up at JKIA and drive straight to the park?

Yes. Enter JKIA as your pickup and your lodge or park as the drop-off. Add your flight number and your chauffeur checks your arrival time.

Is it better to drive or fly to the Masai Mara?

Flying is faster. Driving shows you the Rift Valley on the way, keeps your bags with you and lets you stop when you like.

How many people and bags fit?

Up to 3 passengers and 4 bags, with up to 3 large suitcases.
