Day 1
Nairobi - Masai Mara National Reserve
Nairobi - Masai Mara National Reserve
Depart early in the morning for Masai Mara National Reserve, one of the few places left on Earth where wildlife still lives relatively 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 Great Migration of thousands of wildebeest, zebras, and attendant predators. Arrive in time for lunch, then enjoy an afternoon game drive.

Day 2
Masai Mara National Reserve
Masai Mara National Reserve
After breakfast, you will enjoy a full-day game drive with a packed lunch provided. The reserve is well known for its black-maned lions, as well as its abundant resident wildlife, and is one of the few places where it is possible to see the Big Five during a morning game drive. Many of the cheetahs are so tame that they seek shelter from the hot sun under vehicles, and several even climb onto the roof to get a better view of prospective prey. For bird enthusiasts, almost 500 species have been recorded, including sixteen species of eagles, many hawks and falcons, six species of vultures, eight species of storks, four species of bustards (including the Kori bustard, the world’s heaviest flying bird), and nine species of sunbirds.

Day 3
Masai Mara National Reserve - Lake Naivasha
Masai Mara National Reserve - Lake Naivasha
In the early morning you will drive to Lake Naivasha. It is the highest and most beautiful of the Rift Valley lakes. At 1,910 meters (6,200 feet), the water is fresh and the lake is fringed with dense clumps of papyrus (ancient Egyptians once used this to make paper). Kingfishers use the papyrus as a perch, while herons hide in it as they search for food.
Naivasha is also a popular area for bird watching, with over 400 species recorded. It is a favorite weekend retreat for Nairobi residents, who come here to sail, water ski, and fish. There are no crocodiles in the lake as the water is too cold for them due to the altitude, but there are a number of hippos. Along the lakeshore, vineyards produce grapes for the country’s fledgling wine industry.

Lake Naivasha - Amboseli National Park
Early in the morning you will drive Amboseli National Park, followed by check in at your accommodations and lunch. In the afternoon, enjoy a game drive.
Amboseli National Park is situated due south of Nairobi. Most of the park consists of a dry, ancient lake bed and fragile grassland with patches of acacia woodland, while in the southern area there are a number of small rocky volcanic hills. Around the swamps of Kenya, Ol Tukai, and Enkongo Narok, the vegetation is lush, with yellow-barked acacias and phoenix palms.

Day 5
Amboseli National Park
Amboseli National Park
Rise early for good views of Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds build up over the summit, with a packed lunch provided. After breakfast, an optional visit to a Maasai village can be arranged, where you can experience 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. Despite its changing habitat, Amboseli National Park is possibly the best wildlife area in Africa to experience elephants at close range. Left to their own devices by poachers, elephants feeding and bathing in the swamps form one of the highlights of any adventure safari.
