Aberdare - Lake Nakuru

After breakfast, 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, harboring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos, but the flamingos, of course, have always been the main attraction. Arrive in time for lunch then have an afternoon game drive.

Lake Nakuru - Maasai Mara

Masai Mara

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 Wildebeest, Zebras, and attendant predators. Arrive in time for lunch then have an afternoon game drive. Dinner and overnight at camp or lodge.

The reserve is well known for its black-manned lion, as well as its abundant resident wildlife, see the big five during a morning’s game drive.
