You will be taken on two game drives today, one in the morning before breakfast and the other in the late afternoon. Early mornings and late afternoons are considered the best time to spot animals as they are most active. To get some of the best game viewing of the day, an early start is needed to beat the heat of the sun. This is the time that the big cats are most active and can provide some of the most dramatic photography, thanks to the beautiful lighting. This is a bush experience that will surely create lifetime memories. Optional hot air balloon safari can be arranged at an extra cost. Return to the camp for a mouthwatering breakfast. Your guide will then take you to the nearby Masai village where you will get a chance to see the Masai way of life (optional). Return to the camp for lunch before setting out for an evening game drive. Return to the camp for dinner and overnight stay.
