On the water, we’ll glide past curious hippos and exotic fish. We'll have a chance to take in the full avian life such as cormorant and pelican. Then we’ll switch gears for a guided walking safari to close-by Crescent Island Sanctuary, where we can stroll by peacefully grazing antelope, buffalo, zebra, giraffe, and more. You'll check in at the hotel around lunchtime and have lunch.

Full-Day Masai Mara National Reserve

Enjoy an early breakfast as today will be a game-viewing extravaganza! We will traverse the Masai Mara Reserve on a full day of unlimited game viewing, encountering the Big Five and more of the lesser game. The Masai Mara National Reserve remains the most exciting wildlife ecosystem in the world. It is host to the highest and most varied concentration of wild animals compared to any other wildlife park in the region. The scenic appeal of the tree-studded savannah plains, the moderate climate, and the diversity of wild game species make it a one-stop shop for game-viewing activities.

We will have a picnic lunch at the Mara River as we watch hippos and crocodiles, or maybe the great migration (July – October).
