Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Maasai Mara- 6 Days USD 900

This is a 6-day amazing safari where you see the best of Kenya. Amboseli is the best park in all of Africa with stunning views of the Kilimanjaro and Lake Naivasha. It’s a unique place where you can do a boat ride among the hippos. Mara is one of the best parks in the world where you can spit the Big 5 and witness the Great Migration between July and October.

Day 1: Nairobi – Amboseli National Park
 We’ll get an early morning start and drive to Amboseli National Park. Check-in at the accommodation and have lunch. In the afternoon we go on a game drive. Amboseli National Park is situated due south of Nairobi -most of the park consists of a dry, ancient lake bed and fragile grassland with patches of acacia woodland, while in the southern area there is a number of small, rocky, volcanic hills. Around the swamps Ol
Kenya, Ol Tukai, and Enkongo Narok, the vegetation is lush with yellow-barked acacias and phoenix palms.

Day 2: Full Day Amboseli
Rising early for good views of Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds build up over the summit with packed lunch provided, an optional visit to a Masai village can be planned after breakfast. A visit reveals 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. Despite its changing habitat, Amboseli National Park is possibly the
best wildlife area in the whole of Africa to experience elephants at close range. Less harassed by poachers, elephants feeding and bathing in
the swamps will form the highlights of any safari

Day 3: Amboseli – Lake Naivasha
An early morning drive to Lake Naivasha, it is the highest and the most beautiful of the Rif Valley lakes. At 1910m (6200f), the water is fresh
and the lake is fringed with dense clumps of papyrus (ancient Egyptian once used this to make paper). Kingfishers use the papyrus as a perch,
herons hide in it while searching for food. Naivasha is yet another area popular for bird watching (over 400species
have been recorded). It is also a favorite weekend retreat for Nairobi residents, who come here to sail, water ski, and fish. There are no
crocodiles in the lake as the water is too cold for them, due to altitude but there are a number of hippos. Along the lakeshore,
vineyards produce grapes for the country’s fledgling wine industry.
Dinner and overnight at The Great Rift Valle Lodge & Golf Resort { B,L,D}
 
Day 4: Lake Naivasha – Maasai Mara
Depart early morning to Maasai Mara National Reserve. Arrive in time for lunch then have an afternoon game drive. Mara holds on as one of the
few places left on earth where wildlife still lives comparatively undisturbed, in the numbers that once roamed the plains and forests of
Africa. As the northern tip of the vast Serengeti ecosystem, the Mara hosts the spectacular seasonal migration of many thousands of
Wildebeest, Zebras, and attendant predators.
Dinner and overnight at Ilkeliani Camp { B,L,D}
 

Day 5: Full Day Maasai Mara
After breakfast, we have a full-day game drive, with packed lunch provided. The reserve is well known for its black-manned lion, as well
as its abundant resident wildlife, and it’s one of the few places where it’s possible to see the Big Five during a morning’s game drive.
Many of the cheetahs are so tame they seek shelter from the hot sun under one’s vehicle and several even climb onto the roof to get a better
view of prospective prey. For the bird enthusiast, almost 500 species have been recorded: among these 16 species of eagle, plus many hawks and
falcons, 6 species of vultures, 8 species of storks, 4 of bustard (including the Kori bustard, the world’s heaviest flying bird), and 9
species of sunbirds.
