Days Maasai Mara | Lake Nakuru Lodge Safaris
Day 1: Nairobi-Masai Mara

the Masai Mara Game Reserve
via the viewpoint of the
Great Rift Valley and Narok
town for lunch. Arrive in
time for lunch and a late
afternoon/early evening game
drive in the reserve which
is famous for its high
animal concentration,
abundance and variety.

big 5 - Optional balloon
safari can be arranged at an
extra cost of US$ 450 per
person. Dinner and overnight
stay at Mara Sopa Lodge or
Keekorok lodge
The Mara offers wildlife in
such variety and abundance
that it is difficult to
believe: over 450 species of
animals have been recorded
here. You will easily see
lions, rhinos, hippos,
crocodiles, giraffe,
wildebeests, zebras,
buffalo, warthogs, hyenas,
jackals, wild dogs, buffalo,
leopard, many kinds of
antelopes and elephant. It
is in the Mara that perhaps
the most spectacular event
of the natural world takes
place. This is the annual
migration of millions of
wildebeest and zebra from
the Serengeti (Tanzania) in
search of water and pasture.
Following on their heels are
the predators of the
savanna- lion, cheetah, wild
dog, jackal, hyena and
vultures.
Day 4: Masai Mara-Nakuru

game drive. After breakfast,
depart the Mara region for
Nakuru, lunch enroute, with

Lodge
Lake Nakuru's claim to fame
is anchored on its
flamingo's and the over 400
species of birds found here.
The

lake on the floor of the
rift valley. The sight of
the at times millions of
flamingos is quite
spectacular. From a distance
