Nairobi- Masai Mara National Reserve

Day 1

Nairobi- Masai Mara National Reserve

Your driver-guide reports to your hotel for the start of the safari, with a departure for a picturesque drive descending the Great Rift Valley and onwards to Masai Mara, Kenya's famous game reserve. Stop briefly en route at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint to enjoy the stunning views of an enormous valley system said to be visible from outer space. You'll arrive in Masai Mara in time for lunch. After lunch, you'll go for an afternoon game drive, which will allow spotting of the magnificent wildlife in the park. The reserve is known for providing excellent predator sightings thanks to its relatively large population of lions, cheetahs, and leopards. Bordering Tanzania, the Mara is in the northern extension of the Serengeti and forms a wildlife corridor between the two countries. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at the camp.

Masai Mara National Reserve

Day 2

Masai Mara National Reserve

You will be taken on two game drives today, in the morning before breakfast and the late afternoon. Early mornings and late afternoons are considered the best times to spot animals as they are most active. To get some of the best wildlife viewing of the day, an early start is needed to beat the heat of the sun. This is the time that the big cats are most active and can provide some of the most dramatic photography, thanks to the beautiful lighting. Although it might be tempting to stay in bed and wait until the afternoon to explore, I promise you this is a game drive you don’t want to miss. This is an experience that will surely create lifetime memories. If you are fortunate enough, you will catch lions during one of their rare bouts of daytime activities. It’ll be fascinating to watch the social interaction between pride members, especially the playful ways of lion cubs under the watchful eyes of their mothers. The reserve is famous for the wildebeest migration. Luxury tented camp bordering Masai Mara NR without fences All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

You will wake up early for a pre-breakfast morning game drive inside the park, an opportunity to spot animals that you might not have seen in the previous drive.

You will arrive at the pink lake in time for lunch and an afternoon game drive. Lake Nakuru is one of several Rift Valley lakes whose ecosystem supports a wide ecological diversity, with flamingos and other water birds as the major attractions of the area. Other than birds, 56 different species of mammals exist in this ecosystem, including white rhinos and buffalo. After the adventurous drive, you will return for dinner and an overnight stay at the lodge.

Interesting optional activities here to undertake at an extra cost are boat safaris to Crescent Island and a visit to the Crater Lake Game Sanctuary. Night game drives can be organized at Crater Lake, a great opportunity to see leopards, caracals, and many other elusive species.

A company like no other!

I was referred to Arzoni Africa Safaris by a friend. My Canadian boyfriend informed me around June that he was planning to have spend a two weeks safari and beach relaxation in Kenya and Tanzania. Parks of his interest were Mara, Lake Nakuru, Samburu, Amboseli, Taita hills, Ol Pajeta and Lake Naivasha. Sam made our safari planning seamless and every request by my boyfriend and I were considered in the final itinerary. Overally, we had 10 days of safari and 4 nights in Zanzibar. The choice of accommodations was amazing and our expectations were met. Food was also excellent except in Elewana Tortilis (Amboseli) which were somewhat too spicy. George was a great guide with a sense of humour. We will definitely choose Arzoni safaris again and again. Beryle & Barry

A tour operator plays a role of organising, booking and supervising the whole tour trip

I needed some accommodation for the trip so I emailed them a month before. They were flexible about my needs and the communication with Caren and the team went smooth and everything was clear. The planning process went well. I was expecting the unexpected on the day of my trip, but our guide John was super helpful and knowledgeable about experience so I felt comfortable and taken care of. We had interesting conversations during the trip. I absolutely recommend this tour company .

Kenya is a magical place and our tour guide John really went out of his way to bring us closer to nature.
