Skip the long road trip and take to the skies — fly directly from Nairobi to the legendary Masai Mara National Reserve and land in the middle of Kenya’s most wildlife-rich landscapes. With Annest Kenya Safaris, your 2 days Masai Mara fly-in safari from Nairobi begins the moment your plane lifts off.

Why Choose a Fly-in Safari to Masai Mara
A Masai Mara fly-in safari is the perfect choice for travelers short on time but unwilling to compromise on experience.
Fast & scenic flight: Only 45 minutes from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport to the Mara airstrip.
Aerial magic: Fly over the Great Rift Valley — see patchwork farmlands, shimmering lakes, and volcanic ridges.
More time for game drives: Spend your limited time where it matters most — in the wild.
Ideal for luxury travelers: Seamless connections, comfort, and exclusive safari lodges.
Unlike road safaris, you arrive fresh, relaxed, and ready to explore. Your 2 days Masai Mara fly-in safari from Nairobi begins with a breathtaking view of Kenya’s landscapes before you even step into the reserve.
Detailed Itinerary – 2 Days Masai Mara Fly-in Safari from Nairobi
Day 1 – Fly from Nairobi to Masai Mara National Reserve
Early morning pick-up from your Nairobi hotel or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. Our representative transfers you to Wilson Airport for your scheduled flight to the Masai Mara National Reserve.
As you take off, watch the patchwork of Nairobi fade into rolling savannas and acacia-dotted plains. After about 45 minutes, the aircraft descends into the Mara — one of the most beautiful landings in Africa.
Upon arrival, meet your local safari guide and head out on your first Masai Mara fly-in safari game drive. Lions basking in the morning sun, elephants lumbering through the grasslands, and herds of antelopes grazing lazily — the Mara’s magic surrounds you.
Lunch is served at your lodge or tented camp, followed by an afternoon game drive that may include a visit to the Mara River, where crocodiles and hippos wallow in the muddy waters.
Dinner and overnight at your chosen Masai Mara safari lodge — a sanctuary of comfort and tranquility amid the wilderness.
Day 2 – Morning Game Drive & Return Flight to Nairobi
Wake to the sounds of the wild — distant roars, melodic bird calls, and rustling trees. After a cup of coffee, head out for a sunrise game drive, the best time to spot predators returning from their nightly hunts.
As the golden light spreads across the plains, your guide helps you track cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, and possibly the elusive leopard. After breakfast, enjoy a leisurely morning before your flight back to Nairobi.
Arrive by midday, perfectly timed for your onward journey or connecting flight to Diani Beach or Mombasa for a Kenya coast extension.

Masai Mara National Reserve – Kenya’s Safari Jewel
The Masai Mara National Reserve is Kenya’s crown jewel — a vast, open wilderness that hosts the greatest concentration of big cats on the continent. It’s also home to the Great Migration Masai Mara, where millions of wildebeests and zebras thunder across the plains between July and October.
Even outside migration season, the Mara teems with life — elephants, buffalos, giraffes, and over 450 species of birds. Every game drive feels like stepping into a wildlife documentary.
For photographers, every moment offers a masterpiece: the golden sunrise behind acacia silhouettes, a lioness stalking her prey, or Maasai herders guiding cattle against a crimson sky.
