Your ride from the airstrip to Sand River Masai Mara Camp, a secluded spot in the southern area of the reserve, is your first game drive: don't be surprised if you meet most of the Big Five before lunch. Even if you don't, your afternoon game drive might oblige: these acacia-dotted plains are dense with game. Keep your eyes peeled for lion, leopard and cheetah, hyena, giraffe and elephant, and 500-plus species of bird. Raising a Sundowner in this classic tranche of wilderness is the perfect way to toast the day. Returning to Sand River Masai Mara is the icing on the cake – there are few more elegant places to stay than this enclave of 1920s glamour.

After a dawn breakfast, set off with a packed picnic hamper for a full day's game drive, so you can delve deeper into the reserve. Nowhere in Africa is wildlife more abundant. And while the seasonal migration of two million wildebeest, zebra and gazelle crossing from the Serengeti is one of Mother Nature's greatest spectacles, the profusion of wildlife in the Mara – from 450 species of bird to the Big Five – makes it one of the best safari spots year round. Savour your final breakfast in Tanzania! All good things must come to an end, unfortunately, but fear not because you still have a day in Arusha. You’ll be driven to the airstrip to catch your SkySafari flight to Arusha Airport. Depending on the time of your outbound flight, a day room is available to you at Arusha Coffee Lodge, located on Tanzania’s largest coffee plantation. While here, take the time to unwind and reflect on your safari experience in Africa while enjoying the views of Mount Meru, walking along the rows of emerald-green plantations or relaxing with the freshest cup of coffee at the coffee shop and patisserie. Closer to the time of your departing flight, you’ll be driven to Kilimanjaro International Airport. We hope to see you again soon!
