Park
5
Days/ 4 Nights Masai Mara & Lake Nakuru National
Park takes
you to the Masai Mara – Kenya’s most famous
and finest game sanctuary and Lake Nakuru National
Park – bird sanctuary.
In
the months of June and July each year, the wildebeests
in their troops arrive at the Kenyan border, ready
to cross the steep banks of the broad and fast flowing
Mara River.
This
crossing is truly the greatest episode of the entire
migration. Hot on their heels are the predators of
the savannah – lion, cheetah, wild dog, jackal,
hyena and vultures.
The
banks of the Mara River provide one of the best vantage
points to witness the drama. The Masai Mara also offers
wildlife in such variety and abundance that it is
difficult to believe: over 450 species of animals
have been recorded here. You will most likely see
the Big Five- lion, rhino, buffalo, leopard, and elephant.
Not to mention numerous plain animals.
Lake
Nakuru National Park is dominated by a gentle undulating
terrain with open bush and woodlands, typical of the
dry rift valley vegetation.
Twenty
seven percent (27%) of the park is composed of the
Lake Nakuru waters. The park was declared a rhino
sanctuary in 1983. The Rhino stocking programme which
ensued received white rhinos from South Africa. Currently
the sanctuary has approximately 45 black and 31 white
Rhinoceros.

Day
3: Discover Masai Mara Game
Reserve
We
spend a full day in the Masai Mara on morning and
afternoon ‘Spice’ game drives. The trees
in the distance might turn out to be a family of Giraffes.
Those clump of bushes a pride of Lions, and the rock
that moves a Rhino lumbering out of your way.
With
diligence and some luck, you may encounter a family
of Cheetahs, or a herd of Elephants crossing the path
in front of you. Large animals are not the only entertainment
– a family of warthogs may amuse you, running
as fast as their little legs will carry them, until
they forget why they are rushing and stop to regroup.
