4 Days Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru

After breakfast, depart Nairobi for the journey to Masai Mara National Reserve, home of the annual wildebeest migration which arrives from Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park around July each year.

All meals and overnight at the Lodge

Full day game viewing coupled with exploring this spectacular Park. The Mara is the land of African legend: Lion are abundant throughout the park, as are the elephants, giraffes, and a variety of gazelle species and zebra. Cheetah and leopard are also regularly seen and, less commonly, rhino. The annual wildebeest migration, one of nature’s few remaining wildlife spectacles, occurs in the Mara from July to September where the big animals and their predators are to be present in abundance during the time frame of this trip. Several species of Bee-Eater, the flying rainbow that heads the list of the Mara’s birds, occur in the reserve.
As well as wildlife, the Masai Mara is also home to many members of the colorful Masai tribe who may be seen around the borders of the park – Moran's (warriors) loping across the plains, young boys herding goats, or elders grouped under a tree discussing matters of the day.

All meals and overnight at Sarova Mara Game Camp or similar

A last game run in the picturesque Maasai Mara in the morning through the Rift Valley drive to Lake Nakuru, a shallow alkaline lake in the Rift Valley, renowned for its spectacular flamingo population as one of the world’s greatest ornithological spectacles.
Although Lake Nakuru is primarily a bird sanctuary, there are a considerable number of animals to be encountered, such as many large game animals such as zebras and gazelles, this is one of our best chances of seeing rhinos.
Lake Nakuru National Park was the first place in Kenya selected as a rhino reserve. Here is one of the few places where we can see Rothschild’s giraffes.

Dinner and overnight at at the Lodge

After breakfast, morning spent game viewing, watching, and photographing birds at Nakuru National Park. Leave for Nairobi with lunch en route and a stop for panoramic views of the Great Rift Valley. Arrive Nairobi late in the afternoon after driving through lush Kikuyu farmland. You will be dropped at your hotel. This is one of the few places where we can see Rothschild’s giraffes.
