Quick answer for 2026

For non-residents, budget USD 100-200 per adult for each reserve entry day.

The most important detail is that Maasai Mara entry is not a flexible 24-hour pass. The stronger current sources describe it as a daylight entry ticket, normally 06:00 to 18:00, so late arrival-day drives can be poor value unless the timing is genuinely worth it.

For Kitumo guests, the cleanest way to budget is by full safari days: 2 nights usually means 1 reserve day, 3 nights means 2 reserve days, and 4 nights means 3 reserve days. Arrival-day half-day drives can be added when timing works.

Park rules and payment handling can change at the gate. Kitumo can confirm the latest Sekenani handling before final travel.

2 nights

Usually 1 full reserve day: arrive at Kitumo, take one full-day game drive the next day, then depart.

3 nights

Usually 2 full reserve days, which is the most balanced first safari rhythm for many guests.

4 nights

Usually 3 full reserve days, giving families and photographers a slower, less rushed plan.
