• Main destination: Amboseli National Park
• Accommodation: Kibo safari camp
• Meals & drinks: All meals included + Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

After an early breakfast followed by a departure from Amboseli National park for Lake Nakuru national park via Nairobi for an early lunch. The safari shall then continue to Lake Nakuru National park via The Great Rift Valley; a brief stop here for historical lectures and photography thereafter proceed to Lake Nakuru via Naivasha for an hour boat ride. I recommend that you relax within the hotel in lake Nakuru this evening and proceed for a game viewing in Lake Nakuru National park on Day 4 as this will give you much time in Lake Nakuru when you have more energy. This is so because Lake Nakuru National park does not accept re-entry to the park for all the guests who opt for accommodation outside the park, for example, Lake Nakuru Chester Hotel.

If your budget could allow you to upgrade to the lodge accommodation which is located inside the Lake Nakuru National park then I highly recommend as this will give you a chance to do much game viewing upon arrival from Amboseli and also on day 4 (four) before checking out for Maasai mara game reserve with us here at Back Of Africa Adventure.
Meal plan: breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

• Main destination: Lake Nakuru National Park
• Accommodation: Budget hotel accommodation or mid-range lodge inside the park Lake Nakuru Sopa lodge at an extra cost.

I recommend early breakfast followed by a 4 hours game viewing in this park before setting off for Masai Mara Game reserve, hot lunch served en route. On arrival at the Destiny eco-camp, Mara or you’re preferred upgraded accommodation such as Ashnil Mara lodge (please do let us know if you opt for mid-range accommodations instead of budget camping accommodation for a different quote), relax and after the sun has cool down proceed for a game drive in search for black manned lions, elephants, leopard, cheetah, buffalo, and other plains game. Return to the camp for dinner and overnight stay.
Meal plan: breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

A full day set aside today for game viewing in Kenya’s finest wildlife park, the Masai Mara National Reserve.
Our morning and afternoon (full-day) game drives take us in search of Africa’s Big Five and the plethora of other wildlife inhabiting this vast Kenyan game reserve. On clear days, the Mara offers fantastic orange-tinged sunsets that make for spectacular photos. Much game is coming at your doorstep when you in the park leaving you with the only option of counting your blessings that nature holds for you as you view them in their natural habitat.

The Mara Reserve covers 1510km² of incredible wide-open landscapes and fertile riverine woodlands, following the looping meanders of the Mara and Talek rivers in southwest Kenya. One glimpse is enough to explain its appeal; it is typical open savannah, with a mass of amazing wildlife.

Wherever you go in the vast Masai Mara Park you will see a frequent amount of wildlife such as Masai giraffe, baboons, warthogs, bat-eared foxes, grey jackals, spotted hyena, topis, impala, hartebeests, wildebeest. Elephants, buffalos, zebras, and hippos are also found 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 reasonably common.

The ultimate action here is without a doubt the annual wildebeest exodus, the Great Migration, in July and August when millions of these grazers move north from the Serengeti in search of lusher grass before turning south again in October for the new life circle to begin after a life-threatening move across the strong jaws of East Africa crocodile found within the mara river and talek river.  Despite the wildebeest movement in the month of July, Aug, and October, Maasai mara is well known for its wide range of wildlife (flora and fauna) all year-round.
