4-DAY FLY/DRIVE SAFARI TO MASAI MARA & LAKE NAKURU

From Beach… to Birds and Buffalo

Starting from/returning to Diani Beach area resorts. We’ll pick you up from your hotel and take you right to the airport.

You’ll get to your safari destinations twice as fast on Natural World Kenya Safaris’ 4-day fly and drive tour from the Kenya Coast. The lit landscapes below on your early morning flight from Mombasa will preview the excitement of game drives through two of Kenya’s most popular parks.

The Masai Mara is known throughout the world for its rolling savannahs, flat-topped acacia trees and streaming wildlife throughout the reserve. Lake Nakuru is a bird lovers’ paradise with its many species including pelicans and a virtual sea of pink flamingos.

You’ll catch the sunrise on your morning flight from the coast to the capital city of Nairobi. There you’ll be met by your driver/guide and head out in a safari vehicle with views of the central Kenyan highlands. The Masai Mara beckons!

Nothing quite compares with the first views of the Masai Mara National Reserve with its vast grassland and massive herds of migrating wildlife. In season, the Great Migration presents the largest movement of animals on the planet. Well over a million grazing wildebeest and zebra herd in from the Serengeti to the Mara in an awe-inspiring display of the natural order.

Over your 3-day visit here, you’ll stay in one of the many lodges or tented camps of your choice.

Day 2 – Masai Mara

This will be a very full day exploring the reserve and its boundless wildlife. On your many game drives, you’ll be on the lookout for lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhino. Plus, cheetah, giraffe, gazelle, topi and the immense herds snaking into the distance that make up the spectacle of this greatest migration.

At the Mara River we will observe hippos and crocodiles as they engage with the vast streams of wildlife crossing the river.

Along with the game drives, you’ll have the opportunity to participate in several optional activities: For a small fee, your guide can arrange a visit to a local Masai village to meet and interact with the local inhabitants.

For a special early morning adventure, take a hot air balloon excursion over the awakening Mara to see this magnificent reserve come alive.

Day 3 – Masai Mara/Lake Nakuru

We will welcome the dawn with an early game drive and then depart the Mara for Lake Nakuru National Park. This is a beautiful park with towering escarpments, acacia forest and a great assortment of wildlife, including Rothschild’s giraffe.

Here too, is a rhino sanctuary where you’ll get to see both black and white rhinos. Guaranteed!

We will spend the evening here in the lodge or tented camp of your choice.

Day 4 – Lake Nakuru/Nairobi/Kenya Coast

Get ready for another early morning game and bird viewing drive. Lake Nakuru is the place to view hundreds of bird species and especially the thousands of bright flamingos blanketing the edges of the contrasting deep blue lake.

But also stay alert for lion, leopard, ostrich, giraffe and the many others that populate this beautiful park.

Along our safari travels we will also stop to view the lakes at Naivasha and Elementaita as well as the Great Rift Valley escarpment.

Now it’s time to head back to Nairobi and the short flight returning you to your coastal resort. In just four days you’ve seen and experienced much of the land and wildlife that makes Kenya so special.

All-Inclusive. Your 4-Day Masai Mara/Lake Nakuru fly/drive safari includes all ground transportation, accommodation at your choice of economy, comfort, superior comfort or luxury lodge or tented camp, park entrance fees, game drives, all meals and pickup/drop off at your Diani and south coast locations.
