DETAILED ITINERARY:
Day 1: Arrival in Nairobi – Aberdares National Park (Arrival Time-06:35hrs)
Our company representative will meet and greet you at the Airport and then transfer you to Aberdares National park.

You are sure to see elephants, buffalos and some other animals at the floodlit waterholes of The Ark. Birdlife is also plentiful, including the monkey eating crowned eagle. In the after noon transfer to Lake Nakuru for dinner and overnight at the camp.
Day 2: Aberdares – Masai Mara game reserve
The blessing we have got is that the wild beasts just migrated to Mara last week and this gives us another brilliant opportunity to have enough time to see the wild beasts. Every day you will only feel like staying in Masa mara to see the wild beasts along the Masai Mara valley. Stay at the camp for an African dinner and overnight (enjoy the African variety of food staff)
Day 3: Masai Mara game reserve
After break fast in the morning, go for the game drive which will introduce you to the Mara area.

You will easily see lions, rhinos, hippos, crocodiles, giraffe, wildebeests, zebras, buffalo, warthogs, hyenas, jackals, wild dogs, buffalo, leopard, many kinds of antelopes and elephant. It is in the Mara that perhaps the most spectacular event of the natural world takes place. This is the annual migration of millions of wildebeest and zebra from the Serengeti (Tanzania) in search of water and pasture. Following on their heels are the predators of the savanna- lion, cheetah, wild dog, jackal, hyena and vultures. Retire for dinner and overnight at the camp.
