Tour step
You'll be collected from the airport. Accommodation before the tour starts can be arranged for an extra cost.
Day 1
Today, you will depart by road for Tsavo West National Park. You will arrive in time for lunch and an optional afternoon or evening game drive. Tsavo West is the most visited section in the Tsavo National Park, offering many attractions apart from its wildlife. The foremost is the famous Mzima Springs, where up to 227.3 million liters of cool, crystal-clear water flows out of the ground through porous volcanic rocks. The water is believed to originate from Chyulu Hills via an underground river. Dinner and your overnight stay will be at the lodge.

Day 2
You will get an early morning start and drive to Amboseli National Park. You will go on an afternoon game drive after checking in at your accommodation and eating lunch. Amboseli National Park is situated south of Nairobi. Most of the park consists of a dry, ancient lakebed and fragile grassland with patches of acacia woodland. However, in the southern area, there are several small, rocky, volcanic hills. Around the Ol Okenya, Ol Tukai, and Enkongo Narok swamps, the vegetation is lush with yellow-barked acacias and phoenix palms. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at the lodge.

Day 3
You will wake up early for good views of Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds build up over the summit. Despite its changing habitat, Amboseli National Park is the best wildlife area in Africa to experience elephants at close range. Elephants feeding and bathing in the swamps form the highlights of any safari! We can plan an optional visit to a Maasai village after breakfast. You will see the singing and dancing that are part of their daily lives and sacred rituals. A glimpse into their homes and social structure is a poignant experience. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at the lodge. Luxury lodge located inside Amboseli NP All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)
Day 4
In the early morning, you will drive to Lake Naivasha, the highest and the most beautiful Rift Valley Lake. Located at 1910m (6200ft), the water is fresh and fringed with dense clumps of papyrus (ancient Egyptians once used this to make paper). Kingfishers use the papyrus as a perch, and herons hide in it while searching for food. Lake Naivasha is another area famous for bird watching (over 400 species have been recorded). It is also a favorite weekend retreat for Nairobi residents, who come here to sail, water ski, and fish. There are no crocodiles in the lake as the water is too cold for them (due to the altitude), but there are several hippos. Along the lakeshore, vineyards produce grapes for the country's fledgling wine industry. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at the resort.

Day 5
Across the equator, southwards of Bogoria, lies the Great Rift Valley and the famous Lake Nakuru National Park. The park is known worldwide for its flamboyance of flamingoes and its alkaline lake. It is also recognized as one of the world's natural wonders. It is also a rhino sanctuary, harboring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos. The flamingos, of course, have always been the main attraction. At times, almost two million of them may be in residence, forming a stunningly beautiful deep pink band around the edge of the lakeshore. You will arrive here in time for lunch and then go on an afternoon game drive. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at the lodge.

Day 6
Today, you will go on an early morning game drive to Masai Mara National Reserve. This reserve is one of the few places left on earth where wildlife still lives comparatively undisturbed in the numbers that were once common across all the plains and forests of Africa. As the northern tip of the vast Serengeti ecosystem, the Mara hosts the spectacular seasonal migration of many thousands of wildebeest, zebras, and predators. You will arrive in time for lunch, followed by an afternoon game drive. Luxury tented camp located inside Masai Mara NR All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)
Day 7
After breakfast, you'll have a full-day game drive in the Masai Mara National Reserve—lunch will be a picnic. The reserve is well known for its black-maned lions and abundant wildlife. This is one of the few places where it is possible to see the Big Five during a morning game drive. Many cheetahs are so tame they seek shelter from the hot sun under vehicles. Several even climb onto the roof to get a better view of prospective prey! For bird enthusiasts, there are almost 500 species have been recorded here. Among these include 16 species of eagles, many hawks and falcons, six species of vultures, eight species of storks, four species of bustard (including the Kori bustard, the world's heaviest flying bird), and nine species of sunbirds. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at a campsite or lodge. We can plan an optional visit to a Masai village after breakfast. Alternatively, you can go on a hot air balloon ride. Luxury tented camp located inside Masai Mara NR All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)
Day 9
After breakfast at your lodge or camp, check out and enjoy an en-route game drive as you exit the reserve. Continue the scenic drive back to Nairobi, a journey of about 5–6 hours. On arrival you will be dropped off at either your Nairobi hotel or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your onward fligh. Meals at own expense Drinks not included

Rochar Africa gave us a perfect experience. During the preparation part, they were very flexible providing us different options and changes in order to get the best itinerary for us. During our travel in Africa, they were always taking good care of us. Our guides lider, John, was amazing, he is a very experienced and charismatic person. Simon the second guide also did a great job. Thanks Rochar África for this amazing vacation. Thanks also to James and Charles.
Carolina · Panama
It was the reviews on this page that helped me to book a safari with Rochar Africa so it is my pleasure to write this. First and foremost, at the centre of it all was Phinorah who put together our Maasai Mara itinerary. She was amazing from start to finish. I was most impressed by her attention to detail and the fact that she worked around the clock to provide us with the best options to suit all our needs. She was kind, professional and, unassuming. What an unforgettable experience of a lifetime. Special thanks to Jonathon and Denton our safari guides too. 10/10 experience. Majestic in every way.
Anjlee · United Kingdom
From our first communication with Phinorah to our final few moments with Jonathan, our guide/driver, our seven day safari was excellent. Our accommodations at the four locations where we stopped were exceptional. The game drives in each park provided many opportunities for seeing many animals of every kind.
