day 1

nairobi

NAIROBI – SAMBURU NATIONAL RESERVE

We will arrive at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport or we will be picked up from our hotel in Nairobi. We will be welcomed and assisted by our representatives. Shortly after, we will head towards the Samburu National Reserve. We will have lunch along the way at the Trout Tree Restaurant. During the journey to Samburu Simba, we will go on a safari. After check-in, we will have dinner and stay overnight there.

Lunch and dinner included. Transfers included. Excursions included. It is recommended to book a flight that arrives in Nairobi in the morning or the day before to avoid missing any of the day's activities.

day 2

samburu national reserve

SAMBURU NATIONAL RESERVE

We'll spend the entire day in the reserve, embarking on morning and afternoon safaris. The Samburu National Reserve exudes a sense of serenity and tranquility. Here, we'll encounter rare animals such as the reticulated giraffe, the gerenuk antelope, the Somali ostrich, the Beisa oryx, and the scarce Grevy's zebra. Herds of elephants are drawn to the brown waters of the Uaso Nyiro River that runs through the reserve. The park also hosts a wide variety of birds for birdwatching enthusiasts. All meals and overnight stay will be at the Samburu Simba.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included. Excursions included. Transfers included.

day 3

aberdare national park

SAMBURU – ABERDARE NATIONAL PARK

We will have breakfast in the field. Then we will head towards the Aberdare region, arriving at the Aberdare Country Club for lunch and check-in, followed by an afternoon transfer to The Ark Lodge. We will spend the rest of the day watching wildlife from the lodge's observation decks, located at the natural watering hole, frequented by giant forest hogs, buffaloes, elephants, hyenas, Egyptian geese, and occasionally leopards. The watering hole is lit up at night, so we can also see the nocturnal animals. We will have dinner and stay overnight at the lodge.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included. Excursions included. Transfers included.

day 4

Lake Nakuru

ABERDARE – LAKE NAKURU NATIONAL PARK

We will have breakfast at the lodge and then head to the Nakuru National Park for a safari. For lunch, we will enjoy a hearty meal at the Sarova Lion Hill Game Lodge, followed by another afternoon safari in the park. The park's ecosystem includes the lake, mainly surrounded by wooded grasslands and bushy areas. The park is an important Ramsar site and supports a vast ecological diversity. The 188 square kilometers of Lake Nakuru constitute the only reserve managed by KWS that is completely fenced. Once a simple bird sanctuary, Lake Nakuru is now the best place in Kenya to see the highly protected black and white rhino. Other animals in the park include lions, leopards, flamingos, Egyptian geese, waterbucks, giraffes, hyenas, buffaloes, baboons, vervet monkeys, gazelles, and other water birds, with the flamingos (greater and lesser) being another major attraction of the area. In the evening, we will proceed with a safari until sunset. After the evening safari, we will head to our lodge. We will check in, dine, and stay overnight at the Lake Nakuru Lodge.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included. Excursions included. Transfers included.

day 5

Masai Mara

LAKE NAKURU NATIONAL PARK – MASAI MARA NATIONAL RESERVE

We will have breakfast at the lodge and then head towards the Masai Mara National Reserve, arriving in time for lunch and check-in at Mara Sopa. In the afternoon, we will go on a safari in the reserve, which offers wonderful landscapes and an abundance of wildlife. It is perhaps the only region left in Kenya where visitors can see animals in the same super-abundance that existed a century ago. We will have dinner and overnight at the camp.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included. Excursions included. Transfers included.

day 6

Masai Mara

MASAI MARA NATIONAL RESERVE

We'll spend the entire day in the reserve, embarking on morning and afternoon safaris. The Masai Mara Reserve sprawls across approximately 1510 km² of stunning open landscapes and fertile riverine forests that trace the winding Mara and Talek rivers in Kenya. Characterized by its typical open savannah, it boasts an abundance of incredible wildlife. It's home to over 95 species of mammals and 570 recorded species of birds. All members of the 'BIG FIVE' (lion, leopard, African elephant, African buffalo, and black rhinoceros) are found in this reserve, along with other animals like hippos, Nile crocodiles, hyenas, cheetahs, jackals, and bat-eared foxes. All meals and overnight stay will be at Mara Sopa.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included. Excursions included. Transfers included.
