Itinerary

1. Day 1 : Reach Masai Mara National Reserve

   • Leaving Nairobi in the early morning, travel towards Kenya's fertile highlands and head down to the Rift Escarpment on a road built by Italian prisoners of war during World War II.

   • Look for the charming chapel they built at the foot of the escarpment. Pass the impressive Longonot earth satellite station as you head across the Valley to Narok, and then travel across acres of wheat and barley lands before you reach the Masai Mara and your lodge in time for lunch.

   • There will be an afternoon game drive with the Kenyan driver-guide.

   Overnight at Mara Simba on a full board basis.

2. Day 2 : Explore Masai Mara National Reserve

   • After an early breakfast, depart for a visit to Masai village and a morning game drive.

   • Return to the lodge for lunch and perhaps a siesta before setting off for an afternoon game drive.

   • Head back to the lodge as the sunsets.

   Overnight at Mara Simba on a full board basis.

3. Day 3 : Reach Lake Nakuru

   • Leaving the Masai Mara after breakfast, travel across the ‘breadbasket’ of Kenya, where acres of wheat and barley litter the landscape as you head north to Narok, the district headquarters of this part of Maasailand.

   • Travel across the vast plains on the floor of the Rift Valley, keeping an eye out for herds of giraffe and gazelle as you head up the Mau Escarpment, before arriving at Lake Nakuru around midday. The waters here are often colored shimmering flamingo pink, from the beautiful birds lining its shores.

   • After lunch, depart for an afternoon game drive in Nakuru National Park.

   Overnight at Lake Nakuru Lodge on a full board basis.

4. Day 4 : Return to Nairobi

   • After an early breakfast, leave the Rift Valley behind, continuing towards Lake Naivasha for a boat ride before proceeding to Nairobi arriving late morning.

   • Once in the city, clients will be transferred to JKIA for the International Flight back.
