Maasai Mara Royal River Lodge Fly-in Safari

A four-day fly-in escape to Zebra Royal River Lodge in the Maasai Mara. Short scheduled flights replace the long drive, and the stay combines private game drives with a walking safari, a Maasai village visit, sundowners and a bush dinner under the stars.

Why go

It is an all-round luxury safari: butler service, a complimentary massage, premium drinks, laundry and Wi-Fi are part of the stay, so there is nothing to think about except the wildlife.

How the trip runs

Day 1: transfer to Wilson Airport and fly to Ol Kiombo airstrip, with a game drive on the way to the lodge. Lunch, an afternoon drive in your private open 4×4 and sundowners in the bush.

Day 2: a bubbly bush breakfast and morning drive, a guided walking safari, a massage after lunch and a late-afternoon drive. A night game drive in the Lemek or Ripoi conservancy is available on the game package.

Day 3: a morning drive in a new part of the Mara, a visit to a Maasai village, an afternoon drive and dinner in the bush.

Day 4: a relaxed breakfast, a last game drive to the airstrip and the flight back to Nairobi.

Good to know
