4-Day Lake Nakuru Masai Mara Exclusive Safari

• You'll be collected from the airport.
• Accommodation before the tour starts can be arranged for an extra cost.

Nairobi - Lake Nakuru National Park

You'll be picked up at your hotel in Nairobi or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and then drive to Lake Nakuru National Park. To be able to catch a glimpse of the Rift valley view, we will stop over at the viewpoint. Arrive in Nakuru in time for a hot lunch then have an afternoon game drive. Across the equator, southwards of Bogoria, lies the Rift valley’s most famous lake, Lake Nakuru. It was known for its flamingos but years back, the water level rose and the flamingoes migrated to Lake Baringo and Bogoria. Lake Nakuru is also a rhino sanctuary, harboring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos. Dinner and your overnight stay are at the lodge.

Lake Nakuru National Park - Masai Mara National Reserve

After breakfast, we will drive to Masai Mara National Reserve. Arrive in Masai Mara in time for hot lunch then have an afternoon game drive. This is the most visited and perhaps the most beautiful of all the country’s game reserves. Lying at an altitude of 1650m (5414ft), it covers an area of 1,510sq km (almost 600sq miles) and forms the northern extension of the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. The Mara is a Maasai word meaning spotted or dappled. It is a mosaic of rolling grassland dominated by red oat grass, small bush-covered hills, and along the Mara River and its tributaries flowing towards Lake Victoria, riverine bush and forest. Dinner and your overnight stay are at the camp.

Masai Mara National Reserve

Today we'll have a full-day game drive in Mara with a picnic lunch provided. Members of the “Big Five” (lion, leopard, African elephant, Cape buffalo, and black rhinoceros) are found in the Masai Mara. The population of black rhinos was fairly numerous until 1960 but was severely reduced by poaching in the 1970s and early 1980s, dropping to a low of 15. Numbers have been slowly increasing, but the population was still only up to an estimated 23 in 1999. Hippopotamus and crocodiles are found in large groups in the Mara and Talek Rivers. Leopards, hyenas, cheetahs, jackals, and bat-eared foxes can also be found in the reserve. These animals migrate north around July from the Serengeti plains in search of fresh pasture and return to the south around October. The great migration is one of the most impressive natural events worldwide, involving some 1,300,000 wildebeest, 500,000 Thomson’s gazelles, 97,000 topis, 18,000 elands, and 200,000 zebras. Dinner and overnight stay are at the camp.
