Maasai Mara National Reserve
Two full days of game drive, with packed lunch provided. The reserve is well known for its black-manned lion, as well as its abundant resident wildlife and its 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, they seek shelter from the hot sun under one's vehicle and several even climb onto the roof to get better view of prospective prey. For the bird enthusiast, almost 500 species have been recorded. Among these 16 species of eagle plus many hawks and falcons, 6 species of vultures, 8 species of storks and 4 species of bustard (including the Kori bustard, the world's heaviest flying bird), and 9 species of sun birds. You have an optional visit to the Maasai village and interact with Maasai people.

An early morning drive to Lake Naivasha, it is the highest and the most beautiful of the Rif Valley lakes. At 1910m (6200f), the water is fresh and the lake is fringed with dense clumps of papyrus (ancient Egyptian once used this to make paper). Kingfishers use the papyrus as a perch, herons hide in it while searching for food. Naivasha is yet another area popular for bird watching (over 400species have been recorded), there are no crocodiles in the lake as the water is too cold for them, due to altitude but there are a number of hippos. Later on, you'll proceed to Hell's Gate for a game drive and other optional activities such as cycling. Then, later on, you'll revert to your hotel in Naivasha for dinner and an overnight stay.
