Day 4: Samburu National Reserve

You’re up early today to head back into the reserve on a morning safari. After lunch back at the lodge, you can take it easy this afternoon. Why not laze by the pool or maybe watch for animals in the river from the viewing deck. Late-afternoon we head out for another game drive.

Day 5: Lake Naivasha

Lake Naivasha is your next destination, where your overnight lodge is located on the banks of the lake. Its grounds are visited by many species of wildlife, including colobus monkeys, whose distinctive black and white coats make them easy to spot in the treetops. During a free afternoon, take in the views from your private balcony, settle by the pool or join your Local Guide for a stroll.

Day 6: Masai Mara National Reserve

Your day starts very early, but it’s going to be worth it as you journey into the Masai Mara National Reserve. This famous park is home to an enthralling array of animals including the ‘Big Five’ – lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo. It’s also the setting each year for the great migration, when thousands of wildebeest and zebra cross the Mara River to the greener pastures of the Serengeti. This evening, why not enjoy pre-dinner drinks round the bar’s roaring campfire.

Day 7: Masai Mara National Reserve

Sunrise is a great time to catch sight of wild animals, so you’ll head out into the reserve early today. Afterwards a truly magical experience comes in the shape of breakfast served al fresco out in the bush. When you get back to the lodge the rest of the day is free, until we get together for another game drive this afternoon.

Day 8: Nairobi

Today you’re heading back to Nairobi, notching up more wildlife spots as you travel through the reserve. The long drive through Masai villages and shanty towns will reward you with fascinating snapshots of Kenyan daily life. Be sure to return the waves and smiles of children making their long treks to school!
