Clear safari pricing

Start with the villa, then add the safari vehicle that fits your group.

Kitumo Mara is not a room-only hotel. It is a private villa with meals included. Safari vehicles, park fees, and transfers are shown separately because a couple and a group of 6 do not use the same cost structure.

How full-day game drives work

A full-day game drive normally runs from 06:00 to 18:00. Arrival-day half-day drives can be added when timing works, but the standard package counts full safari days after arrival.

2 nights
1 full-day game drive
Day 1 arrival, Day 2 full safari day, Day 3 departure
3 nights
2 full-day game drives
A better pace for families or guests who do not want to rush
4 nights
3 full-day game drives
More time in the reserve, with the same private base at Kitumo

Park fees are shown here because they can change the whole quote. If your dates are January-June, the adult park-fee line is lower; the quote builder calculates the exact date.

Private villa for your group

Kitumo Mara is for one group at a time. You have the villa, pool, living areas, dining spaces, and team to yourselves.

All meals included

Breakfast, lunch, dinner, tea, coffee, daily bottled water, soft drinks, and snacks are included. Unlimited alcohol is not included in the standard rate.

Safari priced by vehicle

Game drives and Nairobi transfers are priced around the private vehicle. That is why the total changes so much between 2 guests and 6 guests.

Children under 9

Children under 9 stay free for accommodation and meals when sharing with adults. This can make a big difference for families.

Family pricing

Children under 9 make a real difference to the total.

Children under 9 stay free for accommodation and meals when sharing with adults. The safari vehicle and transfer vehicle are still group costs, so the calculator keeps those lines visible.

Accommodation

Adults are priced per night. Children under 9 share free for villa and meals.

Safari vehicle

Private vehicle cost is shared by the group, not charged per child like a room rate.

Extra bed

An extra bed can be arranged in the living area when the family setup needs it.

What the calculator is adding

Park fees, game drives, and transfers are separated so the total is easier to check.

These are the main international guest costs used by the builder. Kenya resident rates are handled separately in KES when selected.

Park fees
Jan-Jun: $100 adult
Jul-Dec: $200 adult
Children are $50 per safari day year-round.
Full-day game drive
From $200
$240 standard
Per private vehicle, not per person. Usually 06:00 to 18:00.
Half-day game drive
Jul-Sep: $200
Other months: $120
Per private vehicle. Useful on arrival or departure day when timing works.
Nairobi return transfer
From $320
Private car for 2 guests. Standard car rate is $384.
Land Cruiser transfer
$600
Private return transfer. Better for larger groups and luggage.
Airstrip transfer
$360
Return pickup/drop-off from the Mara airstrip.
Why the total changes by group size: accommodation is charged per adult/night, while transfers and game drives use a private vehicle. A couple may prefer the lower small-group vehicle rate; a family or 6-guest group usually pays less per person because the vehicle is shared.
Pricing assumptions last checked 2 July 2026. Villa rates, Kitumo vehicle costs, and current planning assumptions are managed by the Kitumo Mara team. Park fees, airline fares, resident proof, and gate payment handling can change, so final quotes are checked against the travel dates before confirmation.
