Day 1: Arrival in Nairobi – Gateway to the Wild

Welcome to Kenya! Upon arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, a friendly Musabe Tourism Africa representative will meet and transfer you to your hotel in Nairobi. Depending on your arrival time, you can explore the city’s vibrant energy or relax after your flight. Optional visits include the Giraffe Centre or the Karen Blixen Museum for a cultural touch.

Day 2: Nairobi to Lake Nakuru National Park – Flamingos & Rhino Encounters

After an early breakfast, set off for Lake Nakuru National Park, known for its striking pink flamingo populations and one of Kenya’s best rhino sanctuaries. The park is also home to lions, leopards, giraffes, and over 400 bird species. Enjoy an afternoon game drive before settling in at a scenic, budget-friendly lodge overlooking the park’s acacia forest or lake shore.

Day 3: Lake Nakuru to Maasai Mara – Into the Legendary Savannah

Today, journey southwest to the famed Maasai Mara, Kenya’s crown jewel of safari destinations. Arrive in time for an afternoon game drive in the vast plains teeming with wildlife: elephants, lions, cheetahs, and herds of wildebeest. Stay at a comfortable yet affordable tented camp that blends adventure with authenticity. Drift to sleep under the starlit African sky, serenaded by the distant call of the wild.

Day 4: Full Day in the Maasai Mara – A Safari Dream

Rise early for a full-day game drive in the Mara. Your expert guide will help track wildlife through acacia-dotted landscapes and winding rivers. Witness the drama of the hunt, the grace of antelope, and perhaps even the elusive leopard resting in a tree. Enjoy a picnic lunch in the heart of the reserve. In the late afternoon, visit a nearby Maasai village to learn about their culture, dances, and timeless traditions. Return to camp for a hearty dinner and fireside stories.

Day 5: Maasai Mara to Nairobi – Farewell, Kenya

After breakfast, take one last morning game drive as you exit the reserve — one final opportunity to soak in the beauty of the Mara. Drive back to Nairobi with a scenic lunch stop along the Great Rift Valley viewpoint. Upon arrival, you will be transferred to the airport for your onward journey or flight home, your heart full of memories and your soul touched by the wild spirit of Kenya.
