4-DAY NAKURU - MARA LUXURY GETAWAY

Meet our company representative at the airport or your hotel lobby for pick up. After a short tour briefing, you will then proceed for a drive to Lake Nakuru National Park. En route, make a stop at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint and enjoy the view, with a bathroom break. Across the equator, southwards of Bogoria, within the Lake Nakuru National Park, lies the rift valley's most famous lake, the Lake Nakuru. Universally known for its flamingos, it's alkaline and supports the flamingoes’ favorite meal, algae. In addition, Lake Nakuru National Park was declared a rhino sanctuary, harboring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos. Arrive in time to check in and have lunch, then proceed for an afternoon game drive in the park. Apart from the lake’s flamingoes and the rhinos, excitedly search for more birdlife and wildlife. Make a stop at the Makalia Falls and the Baboon Cliff during your game drive escapade to further enjoy the park.

Enjoy an early breakfast, before making way for the second highlight of your getaway safari, the renowned, natural wonder of the world that is Masai Mara National Reserve. En route, enjoy ever-changing views of Kenya’s terrain, learning Kenya’s history one mile at a time. Mara, named after its scattered acacia trees, is a warm and culturally rich destination, welcoming you with song and dance, amid the sounds of the wilderness. The sunrise and sunset experiences that turn Mara’s savannah into a simmering gold is to die for! Arrive in the Mara in the afternoon, check in and have a hearty lunch with a short siesta. Afterwards, proceed for an afternoon Game Drive and get to enjoy the breathtaking rolling hills, its sweeping savannah grasslands and its abundance of wildlife. The Big Five species are just among the many animals you will meet in this well-preserved animal wilderness. Enjoy a relaxing evening at your accommodation, with a lovely dinner and a restful overnight stay.

Wake up to a relatively quiet morning littered with birds chirping, and enjoy a well-timed breakfast as the sun rises. With packed lunch for your picnic later in the day, head out into the wilderness, away from all civilization. The Mara is not short on surprises. On your day out, enjoy the amazing topography that is Mara’s constant terrain and meet wildlife from Big Cats, to the fast, graceful gazelles, to the tall, looming giraffes and many more. Make a stop at the look out hill for an elevated view of the park, and visit the Mara-Serengeti border, experiencing the merge of the Mara-Serengeti ecosystem. Enjoy your picnic lunch at the shores of the Mara River, a fascinating infestation of the Nile Crocodiles and the Hippos co-existence. Mara is an all-year round destination. However, if visiting during the months of July to early October, you will be in for a treat to the greatest animal display of all time. The Great Wildebeest Migration is the greatest animal movement on earth, and only takes place in the Mara once a year. In the quest for lush green pastures, wildebeests lead the migration from the Serengeti to the Masai Mara. They must cross the crocodile- infested Mara River, making the journey hazardous. Hundreds of wildebeests drown while crossing the river, and the crocodile feeds on their remains for months. On the other side, the wildebeests encounter a fece-off with predators who hunt and feed on the weak. ‘Survival for the fittest’ has never fit better than during this experience. Have a relaxing evening at your accommodation to freshen up, enjoy dinner and an overnight stay.

To a good morning, enjoy a satisfyingly slow bush breakfast, and visit a Maasai village for a cultural experience with the Maasai people. You will then leave for Nairobi afterwards, where you will arrive in the early afternoon. You may engage in optional activities in Nairobi, depending on your departure timing and time constraints. You will either be dropped off at a Nairobi hotel or at the international airport.
