Masai Mara Safari

Experience the journey of a lifetime with an Asilia Masai Mara safari, the awe-inspiring wildlife reserve in Kenya's southwest region bordering Tanzania. The Masai Mara National Reserve and its surrounding conservancies are Kenya's crown jewel of natural beauty and biodiversity.

By day, feast on the drama of the Great Migration, the thrill of spotting a cheetah on a hunt, or the grace of a leopard lazily lying on a branch. Immerse yourself in the Maasai people's wisdom, cultures, and traditions, who have lived in harmony with this land for centuries. As the day starts to wane, witness the golden light of late afternoon sunsets while sipping your favourite cocktail. Enjoy the romance of the moment, the changing light as the sun slowly slips behind an iconic flat-topped acacia, with plains game silhouetted against the horizon.

As darkness falls, take in the splendour of the night sky accompanied by the whooping of hyena and the roar of lion penetrating the silence. A Masai Mara safari with Asilia is more than just a holiday; it's a life-altering adventure. With Asilia Africa, you can embrace it in the best way possible. Join us now and explore one of the world's most incredible natural wonders. 

Wildebeest Migration: The glittering jewel in the crown of the Masai Mara is arguable the annual migration of thousands of zebra and wildebeest that occurs annually. From the dramatic river crossings to the sight of grazing herds as far as they eye can see – it’s one not to be missed.  

Game Drives: Our custom-designed and resilient 4x4s come equipped with power points and fridges to ensure complete comfort while exploring the Mara and getting close to spectacular wildlife.
