DETAILED ITINERARY
Day 1: Nairobi – Maasai Mara.
Early morning, meet up at Sarova Stanley for breakfast. Board Our Jeep and join other guests for your safari to Maasai Mara, with the first stopover at the great escarpments for a photo session. Continue with the 5 hours` drive. Arrive at your camp for check-in and lunch. Spend the afternoon relaxing.

Day 2: Maasai Mara
This morning after breakfast, your guide will pick you up from the camp at your agreed time, with a packed picnic lunch box, and transfer you to the main reserve for a full-day game drive. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to spot the Big Five along with other animal species in the reserve. Drive to the banks of the Mara River to witness the wildebeest crossings and observe crocodiles patiently waiting for their prey.

After breakfast, you’ll check out of the camp and visit a traditional Maasai village for a cultural experience. Following the visit, you’ll begin the scenic drive to your next destination- Lake Nakuru. Enjoy breathtaking views of the Great Rift Valley as you travel through rural towns and lush escarpments. You’ll enjoy an en-route game drive as you make your way to your lodge inside Lake Nakuru National Park, arriving in time for lunch and check-in. Take some time to relax before heading out on an afternoon game drive at 4:00 PM. Lake Nakuru National Park is renowned for its seasonal flocks of flamingos, as well as sightings of both white and black rhinos, Rothschild giraffes, buffaloes, and, with luck, the elusive leopard. The park also features stunning landscapes, from acacia woodlands to the serene lakeshore. After your game drive, return to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.
Day 4: Lake Nakuru – Lake Naivasha.
After an early breakfast at the hotel, you’ll check out and begin your drive to Lake Naivasha. Upon arrival, you’ll head straight to the lake for a peaceful boat ride, where you’ll spot hippos and a wide variety of birdlife. The boat will drop you off at Crescent Island, where you’ll enjoy a guided walking safari among freely roaming animals such as zebras, wildebeests, impalas, and giraffes — all in a natural, predator-free environment.
After this refreshing morning experience, proceed to your hotel for check-in and lunch. Later in the afternoon (around 4:00 PM), visit Hell’s Gate National Park for a scenic game drive and guided walking tour through its dramatic gorges. Hell’s Gate offers a rare opportunity to explore on bicycle or by vehicle amidst striking volcanic landscapes and wildlife such as zebras, giraffes, and warthogs, all without the presence of predators.

Day 5: Naivasha – Amboseli
After breakfast, you’ll check out of your hotel and begin your scenic journey to Amboseli National Park, one of Kenya’s most iconic safari destinations, set against the stunning backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro. The drive takes you through the Great Rift Valley, rural farmlands, and small towns, offering a glimpse into the everyday life of the Kenyan countryside. You’ll arrive at your camp or lodge in Amboseli in time for lunch and a bit of rest. In the afternoon, embark on a game drive through the park’s varied landscapes — from open plains and acacia woodlands to swamps fed by underground springs from Kilimanjaro’s melting snow. Amboseli is especially famous for its large elephant herds, often seen walking in single file with Kilimanjaro’s snow-capped peak in the background — a classic African scene. Return to your camp in the evening for dinner and your overnight stay, with the sounds of the wild surrounding you..
Day 6: Game Drive- Amboseli National Park.
Have breakfast then set off for a day of game viewing in Amboseli National Park. During your game drive, you may encounter buffaloes, zebras, giraffes, various antelope species, and predators such as lions and cheetahs. Amboseli is also a haven for bird enthusiasts, with over 400 recorded bird species. The seasonal wetlands attract large flocks of pink flamingos, spoonbills, Egyptian geese, and many other water birds. At midday, you’ll enjoy a picnic lunch at one of the scenic designated sites within the park, followed by a walk up Observation Hill, which offers a panoramic view of the park’s plains, swamps, and wildlife below. After a rewarding day of wildlife sightings and exploration, you’ll return to the camp in the afternoon for some well-earned relaxation. Unwind at the bar, or simply relax in your room and take in the peaceful atmosphere. In the evening, enjoy a freshly prepared dinner, followed by your overnight stay at the camp.
Day 7: Amboseli Nairobi – Home
