Things You'll Need To Know

Seasonal Information

ADIRONDACKS: Autumn in the Adirondacks is arguably the most beautiful place to experience fall weather in the entire country. However, September in the Adirondacks can be unpredictable. Be prepared for all kinds of weather; from warm temperatures in the high 70's/low 80's to chilly nights. 

 

MASAI MARA: Summer in Mara is absolutely gorgeous. Weather will almost certainly be sunny and dry with perfect sweatshirt weather in the evenings.  

Transportation

ADIRONDACKS: Although the Adirondack Regional Airport (SLK) is extremely close to the venue, it is a very small airport. Alternatively, the Albany International Airport (ALB) is only ~ 2.5 hours south of the Adirondack Loj with rental cars available.

 

MASAI MARA: Upon arriving from your international flight in Nairobi, staff will personally escort you to Nairobi's most luxurious hotel for an overnight stay. From there, a short flight and thrilling safari will transport you to the awe-inspiring Bogani Camp. 

 

Your hosts will gladly help you arrange any traveling logistics you need. Just contact us!
