4-Day Amboseli, Lake Nakuru & Masai Mara Mid-Range Tour

When you arrive in Nairobi in the morning, our friendly team will greet you and give you a quick overview of your trip. You will meet your driver-guide and then drive to Amboseli National Park, making stops along the way to enjoy the beautiful views.

Upon arrival, check into your accommodation and enjoy a hot lunch. In the afternoon, go on a game drive to see herds of elephants and other animals like lions, buffaloes, leopards, cheetahs, giraffes, and zebras. As the sun sets, you will enjoy a great view of Mount Kilimanjaro with its three peaks. Return to your accommodation for dinner and spend the night.

Today begins with an early rise to enjoy a hearty breakfast before checking out and setting off on an exciting morning game drive from 6:00 to 8:00 AM. As the golden light spills over the savannah, you will have the perfect opportunity to spot predators on the hunt and other wildlife at their most active. After the drive, you will hit the road toward Lake Nakuru National Park, with a scenic journey that includes a delicious en-route lunch and a stopover at the Rift Valley viewpoint.

Upon arrival at Nakuru, you will dive straight into afternoon and evening game viewing across this picturesque park, famously known for its large population of endangered rhinos as well as its iconic pink-hued flamingos that line the shores of the lake. Keep an eye out for Rothschild’s giraffes, tree-climbing lions, and other fascinating species that call this unique ecosystem home. As the sun begins to set, you will check in at your accommodation, where a warm dinner and a peaceful overnight stay await.

After an early breakfast, we will depart Lake Nakuru and journey to the world-renowned Masai Mara National Reserve. Famed for its abundant wildlife, sweeping savannah landscapes, and the annual great migration, the Mara offers some of the best game viewing in Africa. To make the most of your time in the reserve, you will carry a packed lunch, allowing us to arrive early and begin game drives right away.

Spend the mid-morning and afternoon exploring the rich plains of the Mara in search of the iconic Big Five—lion, elephant, leopard, buffalo, and rhino—as well as countless other species of birds and animals. A highlight of the day will be a visit to the Mara River, a vital crossing point during the great migration and a prime location for spotting crocodiles and hippos.

As the sun sets over the savannah, check into your accommodation for dinner and an overnight stay.

This morning presents a wonderful opportunity to enrich your adventure with optional experiences. For those seeking a truly unforgettable perspective, consider embarking on a breathtaking balloon safari. Soar above the sweeping savannah as the sun rises, offering panoramic views of wildlife in their natural habitat.

Pass by a Maasai village and immerse yourself in the vibrant traditions of East Africa with a visit to a local village, where you will gain insight into the community’s culture, lifestyle, and time-honoured customs.

After a hearty breakfast, we will begin our scenic journey back to Nairobi, passing through picturesque landscapes and bustling local towns. Along the way, we will pause for a relaxing lunch at a charming local restaurant, giving you time to reflect on the incredible memories you’ve made.

Upon arrival in Nairobi, you will be transferred to either the airport for your onward journey or to your hotel, depending on your travel plans.
