Arrive at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and meet your Kenyan safari guide, who will transfer you to your accommodation for an overnight stay.
After an early breakfast, drive to Lake Nakuru National Park for a game drive.
On the way, stop at Thomson Falls and the Great Rift Valley viewpoint, where you can take beautiful landscape pictures. On the floor of the Great Rift Valley, surrounded by wooded and bushy grassland, lies the beautiful Lake Nakuru National Park. Enjoy the ecological diversity and varied habitats, ranging from Lake Nakuru itself to the surrounding escarpment and picturesque ridges. Lake Nakuru National Park is ideal for game drives, bird watching, and hiking.
After an early breakfast, head to the world-famous Masai Mara Game Reserve for a full-day game drive with a lunch break. With excellent year-round animal concentrations and its typical short savanna plains, this reserve is well worth a visit. It is also home to the Great Migration in the months of July-October, when two million wildebeest make their way northwards from the Serengeti in Tanzania.
Enjoy a full day of game drives ahead. Before sunrise, try to spot different predators that may have made a kill the previous night.
Return for breakfast at the camp while the sun rises over the game reserve.
You can choose to take a packed lunch for a full-day game drive or return to the camp for a hot lunch. The secret to spotting many animals is to do different game drives at different times and in different areas for the highest success rate.
Have an en-route game drive to the gate of Masai Mara.
Arrive at Lake Naivasha for a late lunch. Lake Naivasha is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including a sizeable population of hippos, which usually invade the property during their nightly forays for food. As a freshwater lake, it also has a healthy fish population, including black bass, tilapia, and crayfish, which attract a variety of fish-eating birds such as long-tailed and great cormorants, along with fish eagles, pelicans, and various types of kingfishers.
In the afternoon, go for a boat safari on the lake to see birds and hippos.
Depending on your flight departure time, there may be some time left today to do an optional activity in Lake Naivasha or Nairobi. All activities today are at your own expense.
Your driver-guide will take care of your transfer to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
