You will get brief information about the formation of the Rift Valley as well as Kenya's history. Thereafter, you will drive for another 2 hours to get to Narok town for hot lunch. After lunch, you'll drive for another close to 2.5 hours on a bumpy road which reflects the true Kenyan jungle as you encounter the Maasai and their villages along the way.
