Tour Overview

This four-day journey concentrates on two of Kenya’s best-known wildlife areas. The Masai Mara offers expansive plains and exceptional predator country, while compact Lake Nakuru brings a different landscape shaped by forest, escarpment and lakeshore.

With two nights devoted to the Mara and a final wildlife stop at Nakuru, the route gives short-stay travellers a satisfying balance of depth and variety.
