TREK 3A

LAKE NAKURU & MASAAI MARA

Depart for Nakuru, experiencing breathtaking views of the world's greatest land rift, to arrive in time for lunch. Enjoy an afternoon game drive in Lake Nakuru National Park. The park provides a sanctuary for the rhino. Lake Nakuru has always been considered a flamingo lake par excellence. The contrast and apparent dislocation between the shallow soda lake with its primeval birds and the animated woods all around it give Lake Nakuru National Park a very distinctive appeal. Dinner and overnight at a lodge over looking the lake.

Day 2:

After breakfast, depart for Mara - the land of vast migrating herds. After lunch, an afternoon game drive to get a closer look at the Mara. On the plains, look for the predators hidden among the acacia trees: Black-maned Lion, Cheetah and Leopard. Enormous grazing herds are ever present. Return to an archetypal Mara lodge/tented camp for sundowners, dinner and overnight stay.

Day 3:

An early morning game drive that promises to be thrilling. The sheer enormity of the Mara and the abundance of exotic wildlife offer endless opportunities for excitement. Return to the Lodge/tented camp for breakfast and then depart for Nairobi.
