Lake Naivasha - Lake Nakuru National Park

You'll have an early morning pick-up and then drive to Lake Nakuru National Park. Across the equator, southwards of Bogoria, lies the Rift Valley's most famous lake, Lake Nakuru. Known all over the world for its flamingos, it is alkaline and recognized as being one of the Natural Wonders of the World. Lake Nakuru is now a rhino sanctuary, harboring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos, but the flamingoes, of course, have always been the main attraction. At times, there may be almost 2 million flamingoes in residence, forming a stunningly beautiful deep-pink band around the edge of the lakeshore. You'll arrive in time for lunch and then have an afternoon game drive.

You will have dinner and an overnight stay at your booked accommodation. There are possibilities to upgrade to more luxurious accommodation (at an extra cost) or downgrade to more economic options (price reduction).

Lake Nakuru - Masai Mara National Reserve

After breakfast, you'll leave for Masai Mara where you'll have a full-day game drive with a packed lunch provided. The reserve is well known for its black-maned lions, as well as its abundant resident wildlife. It is one of the few places where it is possible to see the Big Five during a morning game drive. Many of the cheetahs seek shelter from the hot sun under one's vehicle and several even climb onto the roof to get a better view of prospective prey.

For the bird enthusiast, almost 500 species have been recorded. These include 16 species of eagles, many hawks and falcons, 6 species of vultures, 8 species of storks, 4 bustard species (including the kori bustard - the world's heaviest flying bird), and 9 species of sunbirds.
