Great experience!!):
This four-dayy Great Migration Safari from Nairobi to Masai Mara was truly unforgettable. The pickup was on time, the guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Being in a small group, everything felt personal. I have seen the Big Five (lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, rhinoceros) and the migration of thousands of wildebeest and zebras. Hippos and crocodiles have also been seen near the river. Accommodations were clean and comfortable, and the food was delicious. All in all the trip went well. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to see African wildlife for the first time.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much Irene for sharing your wonderful experience. We’re delighted you enjoyed the Great Migration, witnessed the Big Five, and appreciated our guide, accommodation, and meals. Your recommendation means a lot to us. We look forward to welcoming you back to Kenya for another unforgettable safari. Asante sana!

Four Days Filled With Wildlife and Adventure
The 4-day Great Migration Safari passed like a dream. I saw lions, elephants, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras and thousands of wildebeest in the vast savanna of the Masai Mara. Hippos and crocodiles have also been seen near the river. The guide was very good, he took me everywhere at the right time. Both the food and the service were of good quality. The pickup-drop from Nairobi is all beautifully managed. Being in a small group, it was very comfortable. Those who want to see the wildlife and migration of Africa at least once, I would definitely recommend them to go on this tour. I'm back with great memories!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience. We’re delighted to know that your 4-day Great Migration Safari was filled with unforgettable wildlife encounters and that you enjoyed the guiding, food, service, and comfortable small-group experience.

Great Migration, the Big Five, and Wonderful Memories
A very nice and well organized trip. Pickup is taken directly from Nairobi to Masai Mara. On the way, stop at the Great Rift Valley Viewpoint, which is very beautiful. After reaching Masai Mara, the afternoon game drive begins. In the following days, morning and afternoon game drives are also carried out regularly. Here's a look at the Big Five. I have seen lions, elephants, buffaloes, leopards and rhinos. The most striking was the scene of the wildest migration. The sight of thousands of animals trying to cross the river is truly unforgettable. Accommodations were clean and comfortable. And the food is good and tasty. The guide speaks very good English and explains everything patiently. Being in a small group (maximum 6 people) has been a very personal experience. Overall, the experience was very positive and memorable.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your detailed and wonderful review. We’re thrilled that you enjoyed the Masai Mara safari, the Great Rift Valley viewpoint, the Big Five, and the unforgettable Great Migration experience. We’re also glad you appreciated the comfortable accommodation, delicious meals, knowledgeable guide, and personalized small-group experience. Thank you for choosing Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris, and we hope to welcome you back for another memorable adventure.

Big Five & Wildebeest Migration Experience
Wonderful experience! We were truly lucky to see the wildebeest migration on the 4-day Big Migration Safari. The daily game drive in the vast savannah of Maasai Mara was unforgettable. I've seen lions, leopards, elephants and buffaloes in the Big Five. I especially enjoyed seeing crocodiles and hippos near the river. The group was small (only 6 people) and the guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. Accommodations and food were all excellent. The pickup-drop from Nairobi is all beautifully managed. Those who want to see the wildlife of Africa, will definitely recommend this tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted you had the chance to witness the Great Migration and enjoy incredible wildlife sightings throughout your Maasai Mara safari. It's also great to hear that you appreciated the small group experience, your knowledgeable guide, and our accommodations and service. Thank you for recommending us—we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure!

Amazing experience - one I will remember for the rest of my life!
The adventure started from Nairobi and reached Masai Mara. The guide took us to a wonderful place where thousands of wildebeest and zebras were on the move - and we even saw a river crossing! I can't describe what I saw in words. Accommodation was very comfortable, food was fresh and tasty. The car was open-roofed - perfect for photography and viewing. The guide was very knowledgeable and caring, explaining the names, habits of each animal. I got a lot more than money. Those who want to go on a safari for the first time - I definitely recommend this tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing such a wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that your journey from Nairobi to the Masai Mara was so memorable, especially witnessing the incredible wildebeest and zebra movement and the river crossing. It’s great to know you enjoyed the accommodation, fresh meals, and the open-roof vehicle for photography. We’re also glad our guide’s knowledge and care made your safari even more special. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
4-Days Of The Great Migration Safari: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does 4-Days Of The Great Migration Safari cost?
+
Prices start at $747 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nairobi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 4-Days Of The Great Migration Safari take?
+
Plan for about 96 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nairobi is not rushed.
Is 4-Days Of The Great Migration Safari worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 4-Days Of The Great Migration Safari?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 4-Days Of The Great Migration Safari suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 2. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 96-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book 4-Days Of The Great Migration Safari?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nairobi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nairobi and add a light layer if any part of the 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 4-Days Of The Great Migration Safari start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nairobi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nairobi?
+
On Outty we rank every Nairobi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3 days group joining safari to Maasai Mara with a Land Cruiser Jeep, 1 Day trip to Hells Gate and optional Lake Naivasha From Nairobi, Nairobi Masai village Day Tour Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nairobi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nairobi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
