ARRIVAL at Nairobi for ground transfer to MARA 2008
If your flight into Nairobi will not allow you to clear customs and immigration for 9 am on July 19 then you may need to consider arrival the day previous - unless you pay for air-transfer (~$150 US).
Note: The South African Airways flight from Johannesburg to Nairobi arrives too late for same-day road transfers.
(see schedule).

DEPARTURE from Nairobi direct from MARA 2008
It would be unwise to plan on arriving at Nairobi International before 1 PM on Friday August 25 - unless you pay for air-transfer (~$150 US). You may need to overnight in Nairobi.
Note: Some flights to Johannesburg depart Nairobi too early for same-day road transfers. Road transfers from the Mara can meet departures:
South African Airways flight 183: dep 15:40
Kenya Airways flight 462: dep 20:30
(see schedule).

Alternate departure & transfer options Nairobi-Mara: organized by us for you!
You might avoid a night in Nairobi by transferring from the Mara to Nairobi by air:
We can organize charter flights direct to the International Airport at probably the same cost as scheduled services(extra customised charge - min 4 persons). (see charter information)
The scheduled air-service from the Maasai Mara to Wilson (cost approx. $130-$150 US) (domestic airport) will not get you to the International Airport sooner than the road transfer - (see schedule)

This two night package can be extended by including extra night at other Governors properties or a night in Nairobi. To review Governors' Camps please go to: http://www.governorscamp.com
