5 DAY MASAI MARA TOUR
TO NAIROBI, LAKE NAKURU NATIONAL PARK AND MASAI MARA NATIONAL PARK
Day One: Arrive at Jomo-Kenyatta International Airport and meet your Kompass Safari representative who will escort you to your accommodation in Nairobi where you can relax, dine and rest in preparation for safari adventure.
Day Two: Following breakfast, we make our way to Nakuru National Park where we spend the day exploring the park and spotting Rothschild giraffes, rhinoceros and leopards amongst other shining examples of African wildlife.
Day Three: After breakfast, we take a breathtaking drive through the Great Rift Valley before arriving at your tented camp in Masai Mara. After arrival and lunch, you can enjoy an afternoon game drive in Masai Mara National Reserve, which is probably Kenya’s most famous, well known and most popular wildlife destination. Mara is almost certainly the best place to see the Big Five. It is home to all the iconic African wildlife of your safari daydreams. The millions of migratory herbivores are dominated by wildebeest, zebra, impala and gazelles. Elephant and buffalo are very common, in addition to eland, waterbuck, reed buck, several species of gazelle, Masai Giraffe, Topi, hartebeest, and some black rhino. The predators are dominated by lions with some exceptionally large prides and some of the highest densities in the world. Also present are leopard, cheetah, spotted hyena, wild dog, jackal, serval, caracal, bat eared fox and hyrax. The Mara River is home to large populations of hippo and crocodiles. Birdlife is also abundant with nearly 500 species recorded.
Day Four: After an early breakfast you can take an early morning game drive and continue exploring Masai Mara. The Reserve is one of the world’s largest wildlife sanctuaries and it will leave you awestruck with its unequalled beautiful vistas and wildlife.
Optional activity
A hot air balloon ride over the Masai Mara National Reserve is available at (supplementary cost by pre-arrangement). This is a stunning once in a lifetime experience to soar and drift above these African plains, spotting wildlife and enjoying the amazing aerial view of the rivers, villages and wildlife below you.
Day Five: Following breakfast we return to Nairobi, arriving in the city center around midday you will be taken to the airport to continue with your onward travel.
