6 Days Great Lakes
and Masai Mara
Day 1: Lake Baringo
Depart Nairobi after breakfast and drive to the floor of the spectacular
Great Rift Valley
and stop for a view of the valley from the top of an escarpment, dotted with its string of
lakes, that is a great introduction to the natural beauty of
the region. Camp next to freshwater Lake Baringo where there
is the option of taking a boat trip to search for hippo and
crocodile and view the abundant birdlife around the lake
shore.
Day 2: Lake Bogoria/Lake Nakuru
From Baringo it's a short drive to Lake Bogoria, a shallow
soda lake set amidst beautiful scenery. Like the other
Kenyan soda lakes, it has no outlet and the intense
evaporation leads to high levels of salt and minerals, which
flamingos love and from a distance the surface of the water
appears bright pink. Next to the lake are steaming hot
springs and geysers, but don't be tempted to put your hands
into the water to avoid getting burnt. Continue
south to Lake Nakuru National Park, another shallow soda
lake famous for its birdlife, and the park is also home to
lion, many rhino and if you're very lucky you may spot a
leopard in an Acacia tree. Overnight at a campsite.
Day 3: Maasai Mara:
We head south to Narok, Lunch enroute then proceed to Maasai
Mara –game is viewed as we proceed to the Mar Enchoro
Wildlife camp for
dinner and overnight.
Day 4 and 5: Masai Mara
From our campsite, we explore the mighty Masai Mara on game
drives and there is plenty of opportunity to search for the
Big 5. You'll soon see why the Mara has such an excellent
reputation for diverse scenery and abundant wildlife. The
park has the largest population of well-fed lion in Kenya,
and some of the biggest crocs in Africa are found in the
Mara River - all thanks to the constant supply of ready-made
meals in the way of hundreds of thousands of grazing
animals.
Day 6: Narok, and Nairobi
Morning game drive then return to the campsite for
breakfast. We drive back through the Masai town of Narok and
stop for some souvenir shopping, before continuing across
the plains to Nairobi where the safari ends.
