Déjeuner et premier safari.

On two daily safaris, our experienced guides will take you in search of herds of elephants, lions, cheetahs and leopards… and you’ll experience their intimacy like never before. With years of field experience under their belts, they’ll teach you to recognize lion clans, from the famous Marsh Pride to the Paradise Plains clan, stars of BBC wildlife documentaries.
You’ll hunt with a mother cheetah and her cubs… you’ll follow the hunting trails of the discreet leopard… who sometimes ventures just behind our bush camp at night.

Photo safaris involve spending many hours in the 4X4 vehicle. Bear in mind that, while this may be a vacation or leisure activity for you, it’s also working time for our drivers/guides! Driving over rough and chaotic tracks is hard work, and may have consequences for your safety. Working hours are regulated. In accordance with the legislation governing Kenyan parks and reserves, you will leave at around 06:15 at daylight. The return from the morning safari must be between 12:00 and 12:30 at the latest so that we can organize the catering (between 13:00 and 14:00). The afternoon safari starts between 3:30 and 4:00 pm. You must be back at camp between 6:30 and 7:00 pm at the latest. Drivers must have at least 3.5 hours’ rest between these two daily safaris.

Lever à l'aube, collation rapide et départ pour le safari du matin. Petit déjeuner copieux dans la brousse, au bord de la rivière, sur une colline ou à l'ombre d'un acacia. Déjeuner au camp. Détente aux heures chaudes, puis départ pour le second safari jusqu'à la tombée de la nuit.

Le Masai-Mara est le théâtre de la fantastique migration séculaire de deux millions de gnous (entre juillet et octobre) et de ses fameuses traversées, moment où ils plongent dans les eaux tumultueuses de la rivière Mara, littéralement dans la gueule de crocodiles affamés. Cette transhumance est vitale et attendue avec impatience par toute une série de grands prédateurs.

Full day: You have the option of going on a “full day” game drive once during your stay. You (and your traveling companions) must give your driver or camp steward 24 hours’ notice. We can then adapt the logistics accordingly, and our cooks will prepare breakfasts and lunch boxes in time for the early morning departure. This full-day safari
day safari is particularly tiring for the drivers, and is limited to a single occasion during your stay. Only the driver of the vehicle can decide whether or not to drive off-road. This must remain occasional. Don’t force his hand: he could be expelled from the park, pay a heavy fine, lose his license and therefore his job!
