Getting There
-
Car
If you are driving from the nearest major town, Narok, head southwest on the A104 highway towards Siana. The drive takes approximately 1.5 to 2 hours depending on road conditions. Once you reach Siana, look for signs directing you to Maasai Mara National Reserve. The entrance to the reserve is about 30 minutes from Siana. Ensure you have cash on hand for entrance fees, which typically range from 80 to 100 USD for non-residents.
-
Public Bus
To travel by public transport, take a bus from Nairobi to Narok. Buses leave frequently from the Nairobi Central Bus Station, and the journey takes about 3 to 4 hours. Upon arriving in Narok, you can catch a matatu (shared minibus) to Siana. The matatu ride may take around 1 hour. Once in Siana, you can either walk to your chosen safari tour operator or arrange for a pick-up directly with them.
-
Safari Tour Operator Vehicle
Most tourists opt for safari tours that include transportation. If you have pre-booked a safari package, the tour operator will typically pick you up from your accommodation in Siana or surrounding areas. Confirm the pick-up time and location with your operator. These vehicles are usually 4x4s, which are essential for navigating the reserve's terrain.
