Game Drive in Masai Mara National Reserve

After breakfast, you will have a whole day game drive in the Masai Mara. You will either choose to have full-day game drives or morning and afternoon game drives.
The reserve is well known for its black-maned lions and abundant wildlife. This is one of the few places where it's 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. Several even climb onto the roof to get a better view of prospective prey.
You will also have an opportunity to drive down to the Mara River, site of the Great Migration, when in season —July through to October. The immense herds of wildebeest and zebra are a magnificent sight, matched only by the drama of the predators who lie in wait for them. At the river, hippos camouflage in their natural habitat, and also to be spotted are the many crocodiles awaiting the wildlife traversing the river. Your dinner and your overnight stay will be at the lodge.

Lake Nakuru National Park - Amboseli National Park

You will get an early morning breakfast and drive to Amboseli National Park. You will go on an afternoon game drive after checking in at your lodge and having lunch. In the southern area, there are a number of small, rocky, volcanic hills. Around the Olokenya and Enkongo Narok swamps, the vegetation is lush with yellow-barked acacias and phoenix palms. Amboseli National Park is famous for being the best place in the world to get close to free-ranging elephants. Amboseli was home to Echo, perhaps the most researched elephant in the world, and the subject of many books/documentaries followed for almost four decades by American conservationist Dr. Cynthia Moss. The park offers some of the best opportunities to see African wildlife because the vegetation is sparse due to the long, dry months. The protected area is home to African bush elephants, Cape buffalo, impala, lion, cheetah, and spotted hyena, among others.
You'll return to the lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
