park we view game as we proceed towards the campsite for

the second most popular park in Kenya after Masai Mara,
mainly due to the spectacular backdrop of Mt.
Kilimanjaro on the southern boundary.
Day 3: Amboseli National Park
Full Day spent exploring this park. The waters from
melted snow drain down the mountain under lava flows and
surface on the Amboseli plains, creating a green belt of
swampland amidst dusty plains. Here elephant, buffalo,
lion, cheetah, wildebeest, hyena, jackal, warthogs,
zebra and the Maasai giraffe are likely to be seen.

Breakfast at the campsite and depart for Mara crossing
loita plains arriving Mara. Game viewing enroute to the
campsite. Dinner and overnight at the campsite. Lake
Nakuru's claim to fame is anchored on its flamingo's and
the over 400 species of birds found here. The lake
itself is a soda lake on the floor of the rift valley.
The sight of the at times millions of flamingos is quite
spectacular. From a distance the lake appears ringed in
pink. The Lake has also earned a reputation as an
important haven for endangered species- particularly the
Rothschild Giraffe and the black and white rhino. Lions,
waterbuck, buffalo and baboons are all residents here

Full days spent exploring the park world’s most popular
park in search of the big 5.Morning and afternoon game
drives are offered and optional visit to Maasai villages
can be arranged with your guide. Dinner and overnight

The Mara offers wildlife in such variety and abundance
that it is difficult to believe: over 450 species of
animals have been recorded here. 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

pasture. Following on their heels are the predators of
the savanna- lion, cheetah, wild dog, jackal, hyena and
