12-DAYS KENYA AND TANZANIA HONEYMOON SPECIAL
Itinerary
From the open plains of the Masai Mara to the waters of Lake Nakuru and the swamps of Amboseli, this safari takes in three of the most picturesque regions in Kenya. It also provides the perfect opportunity to spot the Big-5 and to capture some diverse scenery.
Day 1 Nairobi Arrival
Upon your arrival in Nairobi, you will be met and transferred to your Nairobi were you will have the rest of the afternoon at leisure. Overnight at the Safari Park Hotel /Windsor Golf and Country club. Meal Plan {Bed and Breakfast}.
Day 2/3 Masai Mara National Reserve
Leaving Nairobi after breakfast, you’ll travel towards Kenya’s fertile highlands and head down the Rift Escarpment on a road built by Italian prisoners of war during World War II. Look for the charming chapel they built at the foot of the escarpment. You will pass the impressive Longonot earth satellite station as you head across the Valley to Narok, and then travel across acres of wheat and barley, before you reach the Masai Mara in time for lunch. Following lunch and a siesta, there is an afternoon ‘Spice’ game drive returning to the lodge before the sun sets. The next day you will have morning and afternoon ‘Spice’ game drives, relaxing around the pool in the heat of the day. Overnight at Mara Sopa Lodge/Keekorok Lodge/Mara Simba Lodge on a full board basis Meal Plan {B, L, D}.
One of the most requested events in the migration is the arrival crossing of the Mara River that occurs around late July to August with parts of September and again on their return south, around the last two weeks of October through early November. These are the best times to track and see the annual wildebeest migration in Masai Mara. While the sight of masses of animals thundering across the open plains is spectacular, the Mara River crossing will take you through a range of emotions – awe, anticipation, heartache, inspiration, excitement and much more. The crossing is the subject of many documentary films from the BBC to the National Geographic, but even superb filmmaking cannot give you the experience of being on-site.
Day 4 Masai Mara- Lake Nakuru
Depart the Masai Mara after breakfast and travel across the breadbasket of Kenya, where acres of wheat and barley litter the landscape as you head north to Narok, the district headquarters of Masailand. Enjoy the views of the landscape as you across the vast plains on the floor of the Rift Valley. You will see herds of giraffe and gazelle as you head up the Mau Escarpment, before arriving at your destination, Lake Nakuru. The waters here are often colored shimmering flamingo pink, from thousands of the beautiful birds lining its shores. Once in the Park, there will be a ‘spice’ game drive en route to the lodge. Following lunch and a siesta, there is an afternoon ‘Spice’ game drive returning to the lodge as the sun sets. Overnight at Sarova Lion Hill or Lake Nakuru Lodge. Meal Plan {B,L,D}

Depart Lake Nakuru and your journey today takes you across the top of the Rift Valley Escarpment, providing spectacular views of lakes Elementaita and Naivasha and the Great Rift Valley, with the dormant Longonot volcano at centre stage. Traveling on through Kenya’s highlands, you will have lunch in Nairobi and then head south across the Athi Plains to the border town of Namanga. Here you will turn east to Amboseli National Park at the foot of majestic Mount Kilimanjaro, home to a wealth of wildlife but particularly known for its Elephants. With a ‘Spice’ game, drive enroute you will arrive at your lodge late evening.
