Getting There

Car Rental
If you are traveling by car, start your journey from Narok Town, which is the closest major town. From Narok, take the Bomet Road (C12) heading towards the Maasai Mara National Reserve. The road will lead you towards the Talek Gate. Once you reach the Talek Gate, pay the entrance fee for the Maasai Mara National Reserve, which is approximately $80 per person per day. After entering the reserve, continue on the main road for about 20 kilometers until you reach the sign for Fairmont Mara Safari Club. Turn left and follow the road for another 5 kilometers, and you will arrive at the club. Be cautious of wildlife on the road as you drive through the reserve.

Public Transportation (Matatu)
To use public transportation, start from Narok Town and locate a matatu (shared taxi) heading towards the Maasai Mara. The fare is around $10-$15 per person. The matatu will take you to the Talek Gate. Once you arrive at the gate, you will need to pay the entrance fee for the Maasai Mara National Reserve, which is approximately $80 per person per day. After entering the reserve, you can hire a local guide or taxi at the gate to take you to Fairmont Mara Safari Club, which is about 25 kilometers away. The cost for the guide or taxi can vary, so it is advisable to negotiate the fare beforehand, which may be around $30-$50.

For a comfortable journey, consider booking a private transfer from Narok directly to Fairmont Mara Safari Club. Many tour operators offer this service. The private transfer typically costs between $150-$250 depending on the vehicle and the number of passengers.
