Welcome to Africa!

 

DAY 2

Nairobi to Tsavo West

You’ll depart by road for Tsavo West National Park. Arrive in time for lunch then an afternoon game drive.

Tsavo West is the most visited section in Tsavo National Park, offering many attractions apart from its wildlife. The foremost is the famous Mzima Springs where up to 227.3 million litres of cool crystal clear water flows out of the ground through porous volcanic rocks. The water is believed to originate from Chuyulu Hills, via an underground river.

Dinner and overnight at lodge.

DAY 3

Tsavo West National Park

After breakfast, enjoy a full day game drive, packed lunch provided. Other interesting places to visit are the Roaring Rocks, which get their name from the wind that hurtles through them. From here there are wonderful views over Tsavo from the top of a 98m rock face; similar views can be experienced from the poacher’s lookout. The volcanic Chaimu Crater, less than 200 years old and composed of black coke, is worth visiting and can be climbed if one is interested. The area is a good place to look out for klipspringer, a small antelope that’s as agile as its Swahili name Mbuzi mawe(mountain goat). In the south-west corner of Tsavo West is Lake Jipe, which has the Kenyan-Tanzanian border running through it.

DAY 4

Tsavo West to Amboseli

Early morning start and drive to Amboseli National Park, check in at your accommodation, day spent at leisure.

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 swamp s Ol Okenya, Ol Tukai and Enkongo Narok, the vegetation is lush with yellow-barked acacias and phoenix palms.

Dinner and overnight at camp.

DAY 5

Amboseli National Park

Rise early for views of Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds build up over the summit.

Despite its changing habitat, Amboseli National Park is possibly the best wildlife area in Africa to experience elephants at close range. Left unharassed by poachers, elephants feeding and bathing in the swamps form the highlights of any Safari.

Dinner and overnight at camp.

DAY 6

Amboseli National Park to Lake Naivasha

An early morning drive to Lake Naivasha, 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 400 species have been recorded). It is also a favourite 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 due to altitude but there are a number of hippos. Along the lake shore, vineyards produce grapes for the country’s fledgling wine industry.

Dinner and overnight at campsite or lodge.

DAY 7

Lake Naivasha to Maasai Mara National Reserve

An early morning drive to Maasai Mara National Reserve, 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.

Arrive in time for lunch then have an afternoon game drive.

Dinner and overnight at camp.

DAY 8

Maasai Mara National Reserve

After breakfast, take a full day game drive, with packed lunch provided.

The reserve is well known for its black-maned lion, as well as its abundant resident wildlife and its 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.

Dinner and overnight at camp.

DAY 9

Maasai Mara National Reserve to Lake Nakuru National Park

Early morning pick up then drive to Lake Nakuru National Park, across the equator, southwards of Bogoria, lies the Rift Valley most famous Lake Nakuru. Known all over the world for its flamingos, it is recognized as being one of the natural wonders of the world. Lake Nakuru is now a rhino sanctuary, harboring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos, but the flamingos, of course, have always been the main attraction. At times there may be almost 2 million flamingos in the residence, forming a stunningly beautiful deep pink band around the edge of the lake shore. Arrive in time for lunch then have an afternoon game drive.

Dinner and overnight at camp.

DAY 10

Lake Nakuru National Park to Nairobi

Leave for a morning game drive after breakfast.

Depart to Nairobi late in the morning. Lunch en route.
