DAY 11 & 12<br />

Masai Mara | Visit to Maasai Village & Game viewing drives<br />

Sumptuous breakfasts then we depart for a full day adventure with morning and afternoon<br />

game drives.The Masai still live as they did for centuries - interact with these nomadic<br />

people and experience their way of life as you learn about their customs and traditions.<br />

We are right in time for the greatest spectacle on earth; the eighth wonder of the world<br />

– the wildebeest migration. From July to October, the fields are awash with thousands<br />

of wildebeests that yearly migrate from the Serengeti National park in Tanzania to Masai<br />

Mara in search of pasture. They cross the Nile crocodile invested Mara River. Tens of them<br />

drawn in the ranging waters, others are captured and killed by the giant crocodiles. The<br />

wildebeests are closely followed by Burchell’s zebras and impalas. Predators too in their<br />

hundreds also follow and lay in wait for those animals that become weak or incapacitated<br />

during the long journey for a kill. Be on the look-out for the big five that Maasai Mara is<br />

famous for. These include the lion, savannah (African) elephant, the Cape buffalo, the<br />

leopard and the black rhino.<br />

In the early 20th century, Kenya was a famous hunting destination. Killing any of the big<br />

five game one pride, a sense of class, a feeling of heroism. We may even be so lucky to<br />

witness a leopard or a cheetah sprint and make a kill! We return back to the camp before<br />

dusk.<br />

OPTIONAL ACTIVITY:<br />

Balloon Safari over the Mara plains followed by a champagne breakfast.<br />

All meals and overnight at the Sentrim Mara Lodge<br />

Masai Mara – Lake Naivasha | Boat ride + Visit to Crescent Island<br />

Breakfast at leisure and check out. Depart and drive via Narok to Lake Naivasha arriving at<br />

your lodge in time for lunch.<br />

Early evening enjoy a one hour boat ride on the lake before proceeding to The Crescent<br />

Island for game walk.<br />

It is simply one of the most beautiful parks in Kenya, often called Naivasha’s best kept<br />

secret. It is private, secure and patrolled by Guides who can accompany anyone who wishes<br />

a for guided walk. Surrounded by water, it is actually a peninsular and is accessible by boat<br />

from East or West as well as by road From the top of the hill there is a 360 degree view<br />

across the Lake from Longonot to Hell’s Gate to the Mau Escarpment to Eburu and onto<br />

the Aberdares. Walking along the ridge in the golden hour before sunset whilst watching<br />

the animals grazing with the water shimmering beyond, is what Africa is all about.<br />
