2 travelers on Start dateDrive to Lake Nakuru National Park
You'll be picked up from Nairobi and then drive to Lake Nakuru National Park. This drive will offer you the Rift Valley’s view, where you can stop over at the viewpoint. You will arrive in Nakuru on time for a hot lunch and then have an afternoon game drive. Lake Nakuru was famous for its flamingos, but the water level rose years ago, and the flamingoes migrated to Lake Baringo and Bogoria. Lake Nakuru is also a rhino sanctuary, harboring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos. Dinner and your overnight stay are at the hotel.

Drive to Masai Mara National Reserve
After breakfast, proceed in the direction of Masai Mara, leaving the lake area behind. Begin your ascent over the top of the Mau escarpment. Then, heading south, you travel towards Narok, the gateway to the Masai Mara and the district headquarters of this part of Maasai land. You’ll travel across the “breadbasket” of Kenya, covered with acres of wheat and barley, before you reach your lunchtime destination. After lunch, proceed for the afternoon game drive.
Masai Mara is a magnificent landscape of open plains bisected by the Mara River and its tributaries, and punctuated by marshes and forests. Certainly the most frequented game reserve in Kenya, this 1,500 square kilometer reserve supports the highest density of game to be seen anywhere. During the seasonal migrations, Masai Mara is home to up to a million wildebeest and an equally impressive number of zebras that move into the area from neighboring Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. The reserve is home to all the “Big Five”.

Masai Mara National Reserve
After an early wake-up call, enjoy coffee or tea before you set out for a morning game drive in the reserve. This is usually the most popular game-viewing time. During the early hours temperatures are low, thus providing a favorable atmosphere for the game and the viewer. Lions, cheetahs, and leopards roam the vast grasslands in search of their next meal. It may be an unsuspecting impala or even a small animal like a warthog - whatever the players, the spectacle of nature unfolding is always awe-inspiring! Return to the lodge for breakfast and spend mid-morning at leisure. You will have lunch at the lodge, followed by an afternoon game drive. Later, you will return for dinner and overnight.
