Day-by-day itinerary

1. Day1
   Nairobi to Masai Mara National Reserve

   • After breakfast at your hotel in Nairobi, we will pick you up and leave for Masai Mara National Reserve. We drive through the Great Rift Valley to the Masai Mara National Reserve. This enormous reserve is actually part of the vast Serengeti Plains, famously known for its spectacular annual wildebeest migration. It is also home to Africa's Big Five (lions, elephants, leopards, buffalos, and rhinos). Enjoy lunch at the camp and relax before departing on the afternoon game drive.
   • Other animals in the reserve include Masai giraffes, buffalos, eland, and thousands of plains game, including impalas, zebras, tophi, and both Thompsons and Grant gazelles
2. Day2
   Masai Mara National Reserve

   • After breakfast at 6:30am, you will leave for a full-day game drive with a packed lunch. The search for great wild animals continues! On the plains are large herds of herbivores grazing and cheetahs and leopards hiding in their locations. The Masai Mara National Reserve is regarded as the jewel of Kenya’s wildlife viewing areas.
   • Some 95 species of mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and over 400 bird species are recorded in the reserve. Nowhere in Africa is wildlife more abundant, so a visitor hardly struggles to see the Big Five. Lunch will be at a picnic spot close to the Mara River, where you are sure to see animals cross the river in their attempt to migrate from the north to the south.
   • Finally, you will return to the camp for dinner and your overnight stay.

   Masai Mara National Reserve to Lake Naivasha

   • An early morning game drive until 9:30am starts the day, where we aim to see animals during their hunt. After the game drive, we will return to the hotel for breakfast. From here, we will spend time at a Maasai village before we depart to Nairobi with lunch at Narok. After lunch, we will drive to Lake Naivasha, where we will arrive in the late afternoon.
