Our driver and office representative will meet you at the airport. After the customs procedures and a briefing, we drive you 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 flamingoes, it's 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 flamingos, of course, have always been the main attraction. At times there may be almost 2 million flamingos in residence, forming a stunningly beautiful deep-pink band around the edge of the lakeshore. Arrive in time for lunch, then have an afternoon game drive.

Masai Mara
After breakfast, enjoy an early morning drive to the Masai Mara National Reserve. It is one of the few places left on earth where wildlife still lives comparatively undisturbed in the numbers that once roamed the plains and forests of Africa. As the Northern tip of the vast Serengeti ecosystem, the Mara hosts the spectacular seasonal migration of many thousands of wildebeests, zebras, and attendant predators. Arrive in time for lunch, then have an afternoon game drive.

Masai Mara
After breakfast, we have a full-day game drive with a packed lunch. The reserve is well known for its black-maned lion, as well as its abundant resident wildlife. It is one of the few places where it's possible to see the Big Five during a morning's 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.
The Mara hosts the spectacular seasonal migration of many thousands of wildebeests, zebras, and attendant predators. For the bird enthusiast, almost 500 species have been recorded. Among these are 16 species of eagles, many hawks and falcons, 6 species of vultures, 8 species of storks, 4 species of bustards (including the kori bustard, the world's heaviest flying bird), and 9 species of sunbirds.
