Day 2

Mara Full Day

Mara Full Day

After breakfast, you will have a full day game drive in the Masai Mara. The reserve is well known for its black-maned lions and abundant wildlife. This is one of the few places where it's possible to see the Big five during a morning game drive. Many of the cheetahs are so tame they seek shelter from the hot sun under vehicles. Several even climb onto the roof to get a better view of prospective prey.
Your will also have an opportunity to drive down to the Mara River, site of the Great Migration when in season. The immense herds of wildebeest and zebra are a magnificent sight, matched only by the drama of the predators who lie in wait for them.

Mara-Lake Nakuru National Park

After breakfast, you depart to one of the Rift Valley lakes, the famous Lake Nakuru National Park. Known all over the world for its flamingoes and its alkalinity, this park is recognized as being one of the natural wonders of the world. It is also a rhino sanctuary, harboring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos. The flamingoes, of course, have always been the main attraction. At times there may be almost two million of them in the residence, forming a stunningly beautiful deep pink band around the edge of the lakeshore. You will arrive here in time for lunch then go on an afternoon game drive. This park is home to all the Big 5 except the elephant, among other wildlife and several species of birds.

Day 4

Lake Nakuru National Park- Amboseli National Park

Lake Nakuru National Park- Amboseli National Park

You will get an early morning breakfast and drive to Amboseli National Park. You will go on an afternoon game drive after checking in at your lodge and having lunch. Most of the park consists of dry, ancient lake bed and fragile grassland with patches of acacia woodland. In the southern area there are a number of small, rocky, volcanic hills. Around the Olokenya and Enkongo Narok swamps, the vegetation is lush with yellow-barked acacias and phoenix palms. Amboseli National Park is famous for being the best place in the world to get close to free-ranging elephants. Amboseli was home to Echo, perhaps the most researched elephant in the world, and the subject of many books/documentaries followed for almost four decades by American conservationist Dr. Cynthia Moss. The park offers some of the best opportunities to see African wildlife because the vegetation is sparse due to the long, dry months.

Day 5

Amboseli Full Day

Rise early for a good view of Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds build up over the summit. Today you will choose to either have a full day game drive with picnic lunch or a morning and an afternoon game drive.
Despite its changing habitat, Amboseli National Park is possibly the best wildlife area in all of Africa to experience elephants at close range. Elephants feeding and bathing in the swamps form the highlights of any safari!
An optional visit to a Maasai village can be planned after breakfast at an extra cost. You will see the singing and dancing that are part of their daily lives and sacred rituals. A glimpse into their homes and social structure is a poignant experience.
