- Day 1 - Traveling to Lake Nakuru National ParkOur safari guide will pick you up from your accommodation and inform you on the full safari before driving you to Lake Nakuru National Park. You will get breathtaking vistas of the Great Rift Valley along the journey. You'll be on time for lunch and an afternoon game drive. This beautiful park is well-known for its diverse bird species, particularly the pink flamingos. Although Lake Nakuru is largely a bird refuge, it also has a diverse animal population, including zebras and gazelles. This is also one of the greatest spots in Kenya to see rhinos, as Lake Nakuru National Park was the first to be designated as a rhino reserve. Dinner & Overnight stay at Lanet Mat Farm resort.
Main Destination: Lake Nakuru NP
Accommodation: Lake Nakuru Sopa
Meals & Drinks: Lunch & Dinner Included with Drinks
- Day 2 - Lake Nakuru to Masai Mara ReserveAfter breakfast, you will take a wildlife drive out of the park and into the stunning Maasai Mara National Reserve. You will arrive at the Maasai Mara National Reserve and proceed to Lenchada for check-in before departing for an afternoon wildlife drive. The Masai Mara National Reserve is known as the northern Serengeti and is one of Kenya's most popular game-viewing destinations. The reserve itself has 700 square kilometers of breathtaking wilderness. It's the Africa of your dreams, with limitless stretches of acacia-dotted meadows and hazy hills. Take a game drive in the afternoon to witness the sunset while tracking the "Big Five" and other plains game. Your lunch, supper, and overnight stay will all be at the Mara Sopa Lodge.
Main Destination: Maasai Mara NR
Accommodation: Masai Mara Sopa
Meals & Drinks: All Meals Included with Drinks
- Day 3 - Exploring the MaraThe entire day will be spent searching for the Big Five and the wildebeest migration in the Mara. Morning and afternoon game drives are also available. A hot air balloon expedition is available for an additional fee of USD 480 per person. The Mara has such a diverse and abundant species that it is difficult to grasp. Over 450 animal species have been identified here. Lions, rhinos, hippos, crocodiles, giraffes, wildebeests, zebras, buffalo, warthogs, hyenas, jackals, wild dogs, buffalo, leopards, various antelopes, and elephants are all common. Perhaps the most stunning natural phenomenon takes place in the Mara: the annual migration of millions of wildebeest and zebra from Tanzania's Serengeti in search of water and grazing. The savannah predators are close behind, including the lion, cheetah, wild dog, jackal, hyena, and vulture. Return to Lenchada camp for dinner and an overnight stay.

Getting There
Tourists can visit these safari locations once in Kenya and can show up via air, land or ocean, however, flights are the most favoured mode of transport. Kenya is a huge nation and while you can go via vehicle on a safari circuit, getting between the various regions is better on a booked flight.
Kenya's main airport is Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO), located 15km/9mi southeast of Nairobi. Kenya's second international Airport is Moi International Airport (MBA), located 9km/6mi west of Mombasa, but aside from flights to Zanzibar, this is primarily used for domestic and charter flights.
From Nairobi or Mombasa, one can fly or drive between reserves, or opt to do a bit of both. Most domestic flights out of Nairobi depart from Wilson Airport (WIL), 6km/4mi south of Nairobi.
