Made for the way you want to travel.
This four-day private safari gives guests two meaningful wildlife bases: the open grasslands of the Masai Mara and the bird-rich Rift Valley around Lake Nakuru. The route is designed for couples, families and small groups who want a premium pace, reliable logistics and time for photography rather than a hurried checklist.
Highlights
- Two Mara game-drive windows
- Lake Nakuru wildlife and birding
- Private guide and 4x4
