Aberdares/Lake Nakuru National Park

After breakfast, you will depart to Lake Nakuru National Park. Across the equator, southwards of Bogoria, lies the Rift Valley's famous Lake Nakuru. Known all over the world for its flamingoes and its alkaline, it's recognized as being one of the Natural Wonders of the World. Lake Nakuru is now a rhino sanctuary, harbouring 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 residence, forming a stunningly beautiful deep pink band around the edge of the lakeshore. You will arrive in time for lunch and then have an afternoon game drive.

Lake Nakuru/Masai Mara National Reserve

You will go on an early morning drive to Masai 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 wildebeests, zebras, and attendant predators. You will arrive in time for lunch and then have an afternoon game drive.

Masai Mara National Reserve

After breakfast, you will have a full-day game drive, with packed lunch provided. The reserve is well known for its black-manned lions, 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 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 16 species of eagle, 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.
