7 Days Amboseli National Park, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru NP & Masai Mara National Reserve

Explore Amboseli National Park. Amboseli is big game country and has elephant, antelope, zebra, wildebeest, buffalo, and giraffe. Two game runs are planned today, both which will introduce you to the intense beauty and drama that fills each day here. Predators stalk the herds of grazing animals, recreating the age-old drama of life and death under the African sun in a setting so lush and beautiful. We return to our lodge or cozy camp for a steaming bath, cocktails, and a sumptuous dinner.

Depart after your morning breakfast for Lake Naivasha. After lunch proceed to Lake Naivasha and go visit the Crescent Island Game Sanctuary - a peninsula or 'island' on the eastern side of Lake Naivasha. At the island, the guests will walk with the animals living in the sanctuary. After the walk, the guests will be taken out for a boat ride. During the ride, the guests will be taken to visit the many Hippos living in Lake Naivasha. Lake Naivasha is also an excellent place for bird-watching, with over 200+ species of birds, such as fish eagles, ospreys, lily-trotters, black crakes and a variety of herons. After the boat ride, the guests will return back at the resort for dinner & overnight.

After your morning breakfast depart for Lake Nakuru. Enjoy your afternoon game drive in Lake Nakuru National Park. This Park which covers 180 sq km. The park is home to warthogs, waterbuck, buffaloes, reedbucks, and the occasional leopard. White and black rhinos were introduced to the park some years ago and you may find white rhino at the southern end. The park has also retained its reputation as an ornithologists’ delight with more than 400 species of bird found here. Full board accommodation included in the tour price Dinner and overnight at the Lodge.

Depart after your morning breakfast for Masai Mara Game Reserve. Wherever you go in the Mara you will see a frequent amount of wildlife such as Masai giraffe, baboons, warthogs, bat eared foxes, grey jackals, spotted hyena, topis, impala, wildebeest. Elephants, buffaloes, zebras and hippos also exist in great numbers. It is also common to see lions either basking after a heavy meal, or surveying the plains for their next meal. Cheetahs and leopards are harder to spot but are still reasonably common. The ultimate action here is without doubt the annual wildebeest exodus in July, August and September when millions of these grass eaters move north from the Serengeti in search of lusher grass before turning south again in October. Full board accommodation is included in the tour price. Dinner and overnight at the Lodge/Camp.

Head to the Mara River again with hopes of seeing the wildebeest crossing (Jul-Sep). If you have seen crossing yesterday, you can choose to return to the river or go around the Mara in search of the big 5 you have not spotted plus more of other resident wildlife. Again, you will have picnic lunches in the Reserve as you scale the Mara beauty. Return to the lodge before dusk for dinner & overnight. Optional Activities: 1. Early morning balloon safaris. You will be dropped off at the takeoff site by the balloon company and picked up from your landing site by our safari driver. Balloon safaris are a romantic and evocative way of experiencing the wilderness of East Africa, as you gracefully and silently fly over the plains teeming with herds of wildlife in the early morning. Typically, a balloon safari begins at break of dawn, about 6 am, and lasts for around 1 hour, during which you will fly over parts of the vast Masai Mara plain, seeing the magnificent wildlife below, spread over several square kilometers of the reserve. Balloon flights are available daily in Masai Mara and take off from designated sites where the disturbance to animals is kept to a minimum. The flight is followed by a champagne breakfast "in the bush", with a well laid out seating arrangement and waiters on hand, to give you a fitting final to your memorable flight in the wild . Then you will start a game drive again with our driver guide. Picnic lunch offers wonderful scenery. The lunch box is packed by the hotel you stay. After lunch you will continue with game drive. The cost is USD480 per adult. 2. In the afternoon game drive, you can visit a village of the Masai people to witness the singing and dancing that are part of their daily lives and sacred rituals. A glimpse into their homes and social structure is a poignant experience. The cost is USD 30 per adult.

Enjoy your early morning breakfast and thereafter, depart Mara for Nairobi. Here we find the Old Africa of the movies, with rolling grasslands dotted by acacia trees and sweeping plains teeming with wildlife. Depending on your flight schedule be dropped at the airport for your onward journey.
