Day 1 – Lake Naivasha
The tour leaves Nairobi and travels north to Lake Naivasha where we spend the day at Hell’s Gate NP, known for its wide variety of wildlife and for its scenery. This includes the Fischer's Tower and Central Tower columns and Hell's Gate Gorge. The interesting name comes from the huge red-coloured cliffs that form the entrance to the geothermal interior. You can go hiking in the park and activities include game and bird watching. The park entry fees are included and one of the more popular optional activities is to go game viewing from a bicycle. An alternative way to spend your afternoon is to take high tea at Elsamere, the former home of Joy Adams, best known for her autobiographical novel, Born Free.
Optional Activities: Cycle hire, high tea at Elsamere

Day 2 & 3 – Masai Mara National Reserve
The Masai Mara National Reserve is the Kenyan side of the world-famous Serengeti National Park (located in Tanzania). Today the tour will be entering this huge area of spectacular game viewing to photograph some of Africa’s most abundant wildlife. Famous for the annual migration of around 1.5 million wildebeest, the Masai Mara is also home to many other open plains animals, including lions. In addition to what we hope will be a successful day’s game viewing, cultural interaction with Kenya’s native Masaai people will round off your experience.
