5-Day Kenya Safari through Hell's Gate, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara

Pick up from Nairobi airport and drive to Lake Naivasha, with a stop at Hell's Gate National Park with your Kenya tour guide. The park mainly comprises savannah wildlife and is home to over 100 species of birds, including vultures, Verreaux's eagles, augur buzzards, and swifts. African buffalo, zebra, eland, hartebeest, Thomson's gazelle, and baboons are also common here, and the park is also home to the klipspringer antelope.

Dinner and overnight stay. There is a possibility to upgrade to more luxurious accommodation at an extra cost.

Get an early morning pick-up and drive to Lake Nakuru National Park. Across the equator and south of Bogoria lies the Rift Valley's most famous lake, Nakuru. Known worldwide for its flamingos, this alkaline lake is recognized as one of the world's natural wonders. Lake Nakuru is now a rhino sanctuary, harbouring a population of over 40 black rhinos and over 60 white rhinos, though the flamingos have always remained the main attraction. At times, there may be almost 2 million flamingos in residence, forming a stunningly beautiful deep pink band around the edge of the lakeshore.

Arrive in time for lunch, followed by an afternoon game drive.

Enjoy an early morning drive to Maasai Mara National Reserve, 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.

After breakfast, enjoy a full-day game drive with packed lunch provided. The reserve is well known for its black-maned lion, as well as its abundant resident wildlife. It is one of the few places where you can find the Big Five during a morning game drive. Many of the cheetahs are so tame that they seek shelter from the hot sun under vehicles, and several even climb onto the roof to get a better view of prospective prey. For bird enthusiasts, almost 500 species have been recorded here, including 16 species of eagle, many hawks and falcons, 6 species of vultures, 8 species of storks, 4 species of bustard - including the Kori bustard, the world's heaviest flying bird - and 9 species of sunbirds.
