Nairobi to Maasai Mara

Day 1

Nairobi to Maasai Mara

Your safari adventure begins with a scenic drive from Nairobi to the legendary Maasai Mara, Kenya’s premier wildlife destination. After arriving and enjoying lunch at your lodge, you embark on an afternoon game drive across the golden plains. This first wildlife experience offers opportunities to spot elephants grazing peacefully, prides of lions resting under acacia trees, bat-eared foxes darting across the grasslands, and graceful giraffes browsing the treetops. As the sun sets, the savannah comes alive with evening activity, providing a thrilling introduction to the Mara’s rich wildlife before you return to your lodge for dinner. Mid-range tented camp located just outside Masai Mara NR All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

Full-Day Safari in Maasai Mara

Day 2

Full-Day Safari in Maasai Mara

After breakfast, you set out on a full-day game drive exploring the Maasai Mara’s diverse ecosystems. During the wildebeest migration season, you may witness one of the world’s most dramatic wildlife spectacles - millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles thunder across the plains and brave crocodile-infested river crossings as they move between the Serengeti and Mara. Lions, cheetahs, and hyenas follow closely, creating intense predator-prey interactions that define this natural wonder. Your day includes a picnic lunch in the wilderness, allowing uninterrupted time to observe elephants bathing, hippos wallowing in the rivers, and large herds of buffalo grazing. You return to your lodge for dinner and relaxation. Mid-range tented camp located just outside Masai Mara NR All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

Day 3

Maasai Mara to Lake Naivasha

After breakfast, you depart the Maasai Mara and drive toward Lake Naivasha, arriving for lunch at your lodge. In the afternoon, you enter Hell’s Gate National Park, famous for its dramatic volcanic formations, towering cliffs, and geothermal activity. Unlike most parks, Hell’s Gate allows close wildlife encounters, and you may see zebras, gazelles, elands, buffalo, and warthogs at remarkably close range. Majestic lammergeiers, vultures, and eagles often glide overhead, adding to the park’s unique atmosphere. After exploring its striking landscapes and wildlife, you return to your lodge in Naivasha for the evening. Mid-range resort located less than 1hr drive from Hell’s Gate NP All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

Day 4

Lake Naivasha to Amboseli National Park

After breakfast at your lodge, you begin your transfer to Amboseli National Park, known as the “Land of Giants” for its spectacular elephant populations. Upon arrival, you enjoy lunch at your lodge before heading out for an afternoon game drive. Amboseli offers exceptional opportunities to observe elephants with massive tusks moving in family groups across the plains, often with Mount Kilimanjaro providing a stunning backdrop. Other wildlife includes cheetahs scanning for prey, hyenas patrolling the grasslands, large herds of wildebeest and zebras, and dazzling birdlife around the wetlands where hippos and flamingos thrive. You return to your lodge for dinner as the sun sets behind the mountain. Mid-range tented camp located just outside Amboseli NP All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

Early Morning Game Drive in Amboseli & Return to Nairobi

Day 5

Early Morning Game Drive in Amboseli & Return to Nairobi

Your final day begins with an early morning game drive, the ideal time to witness predators returning from nighttime hunts and grazers starting their day. This tranquil, golden-lit period offers great chances to see lions before they retreat into the shade, elephants trekking across the plains, and a variety of birds taking flight over the marshes. After the game drive, you return to your lodge for breakfast before departing for Nairobi. Once in the city, you enjoy lunch before being dropped off at your preferred location, either your hotel or the airport, bringing your unforgettable multi-park safari adventure to a close.

We had the most incredible safari thanks to the seamless organization by Paul Oduor. He was so helpful in planning the perfect trip for our family of ten—myself, my wife, our three children with their spouses, and our two grandchildren. The logistics were flawless, and the entire experience was a dream come true for everyone. The journey itself was unforgettable, taking us through the breathtaking landscapes of Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Samburu, and Amboseli. Each park offered a unique and spectacular experience, from the vast plains of the Mara to the iconic elephants of Amboseli. A huge part of what made our trip so special were our amazing driver-guides, Victor and Morris. Their knowledge was exceptional, and they knew exactly where to find the wildlife, making every game drive an adventure. They were also so patient and kind with our whole family, especially our grandchildren, and their passion for the animals and the environment was contagious. They truly went above and beyond to ensure we all had a fantastic time. This safari was a once-in-a-lifetime trip that created memories we'll cherish forever. We highly recommend this experience and extend our heartfelt thanks to Paul for his expert planning and to Victor and Morris for being such incredible guides.

Skilled and safe guide

We chose the 6 day safari visiting Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. Each park had unique safari experiences and we loved all 3. Even though it was a lot of driving between the parks, it was worth it. It also gave us a glimpse of Kenya. Our guide Maurice was very skilled on spotting animals and positioning us on the best places to get close-up views. He was also a safe driver in an otherwise chaotic traffic. Will also recommend to do the balloon safari, we did in Maasai Mara when there was big herds of animals there, magical. Can definitely recommend Ramble Safaris.

One of the best trips I’ve been on

One of the best trips I’ve ever been on! From the beginning, Paul was super helpful and answered all my questions really thoroughly. The trip itself was amazing—our driver, Edward, was so friendly and a great driver. He always knew where to go and when, so we got to see almost all the animals. Paul also made sure the lodge had our dietary needs sorted, and they even planned separate meals just for us. Overall, I’d totally recommend this trip—it was such an awesome experience!

Ramble - our reliable travel partner in Kenya

I booked a private trip for two with my sister. I booked our first safari trip early in Feb, Paul was the most responsive one among all the travel agencies I contacted, and the price is reasonable, that's why I chose Ramble. I had very good communication with Paul for the itinerary of our trip, he provided professional suggestions, explained clearly of different places and answered all my stupid questions so that we can plan our trips according to our wishes, totally tailor-made. And our tour guide cum driver, Victor, he is very professional. He just like a big brother and take care about all the things during our trip, he taught us many knowledge about the wildlife and local people. During our safari, he always try to let us to see the animals in a good position. And he is also a kindhearted and helpful man who helped his friend whose car was stuck in the muddy road, letting no one left behind in the area that might have big cats. There were some accidents which makes our trip unforgettable, but Victor and Paul did communicate well and made speedy arrangements so that we can continue our trip safely with little delay only. With the good communication and the sense of responsibility, I highly recommend Ramble for the trips in Africa, they are reliable and also the price is reasonable.
