Five Days Four Nights Group

Safari summary

This multi-day safari offers a concentrated journey through three of Kenya's most vital Rift Valley wildlife areas: the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Lake Naivasha.
The adventure begins with a pickup in Nairobi City Centre and an immediate transfer to the legendary Maasai Mara National Reserve. This reserve is known as one of the few places where animal populations still roam freely. Upon arrival, you'll immediately experience your first exhilarating evening game drive as the sun sets over the sweeping plains. The following day is dedicated to a full-day game drive, where you depart after breakfast with picnic lunches to maximize your time viewing wildlife. The Mara is home to an incredible concentration of animals, including lions, elephants, leopards, cheetahs, zebras, and wildebeest, offering the best chance to witness the drama of the African savannah. After each day of thrilling exploration, you’ll return to your camp for dinner and an overnight stay, surrounded by the tranquil sounds of the wilderness.
The safari continues after a final game-viewing drive upon departing the Mara. The next destination is Lake Nakuru National Park, where you arrive in time for lunch. This park is famous for its soda lake, which historically attracted thousands of flamingos and other bird species. Crucially, it is also a vital sanctuary for both black and white rhinos. Your afternoon game drive will focus on spotting these rhinos, along with other terrestrial animals like buffaloes, zebras, and giraffes.

The journey concludes with a scenic drive to Lake Naivasha, a freshwater gem in the Great Rift Valley. After lunch, you'll relax before the afternoon's highlight: a guided boat ride on the serene lake. This activity provides an opportunity to glide across the calm waters, spot numerous bird species, and see hippos near the surface as the sun sets. The final morning includes breakfast before departing Lake Naivasha. The scenic drive back to Nairobi offers a chance to spot giraffes, zebras, and antelopes grazing roadside before the tranquil countryside gives way to the bustling city, where you'll be dropped off at your hotel or the airport around lunchtime.
