A 4-day safari visiting the most famous national parks in Kenya, The Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru. The Maasai Mara Game Reserve is one of the best places in Africa for wildlife viewing. Game drives are a great way to experience the park and they take place all year round. If the big cats are what you're looking for on your Kenyan safari, you are guaranteed to spot them at the Mara. Lake Nakuru is a rhino sanctuary, harboring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos.
Day 1
Nairobi/Lake Nakuru
Early in the morning, we pick you up from the airport or from the hotel, then drive you to Lake Nakuru National Park, across the equator, southwards of Bogoria, lies the rift valley's most famous '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 the 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.
Main Destination:
Lake Nakuru National Park
Day 2
Lake Nakuru/Maasai Mara
Enjoy an early morning drive to Maasai Mara National Reserve, which holds on as 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 wildebeest, zebras, and attendant predators. Arrive in time for lunch, then have an afternoon game drive.
Main Destination:
Masai Mara National Reserve
Day 3
Maasai Mara
After breakfast, we have a full-day game drive, with packed lunch provided. The reserve is well known for its black-maned lion, as well as its abundant resident wildlife, and it's one of the few places where it's possible to see the Big Five during a morning's game drive. Many of the cheetahs are so tame that they 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.

For the bird enthusiast, almost 500 species have been recorded: among these are 16 species of eagle, plus many hawks and falcons, 6 species of vultures, 8 species of storks, 4 of bustard (including the Kori bustard, the world's heaviest flying bird), and 9 species of sunbirds.
