Lake Nakuru NP, Masai Mara NR.
Day 1. Afernoon game drive in Lake Nakuru. An early morning pick up then drive to Lake Nakuru National Park Known all over the world for its pink flamingoes, it's alkaline and is 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. At times there may be almost 2 million flamingos in the residence, forming a stunningly beautiful deep pink band around the edge of the lake shore. Arrive in time for lunch then have an afernoon game drive.
Dinner and overnight at campsite or lodge.
Day 2. Lake Nakuru-Masai Mara (5h). An early morning drive to Masai Mara National Reserve, it 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 campsite or lodge.
Extra tours recommended: Hot Air Ballon Safari, Visit a Maasai Village
Day 3. Full day game drive in Mara. After breakfast we have a full day dame drive, with packed lunch provided. The reserve is well known for its black-manned lion, as well as its abundant resident wildlife and its one of the few places where it's possible to see the big five during a morning's game drive. Here lives the formidable coalition of cheetahs who arrived in the Mara Game Reserve in 2016, known all over the world for their incredible success in taking down huge prey. The “Tano Bora”, the magnificent Five, now left in Four, the “Nne Bora”! For the bird enthusiast, almost 500 species have been recorded.
