Kenyan Safari
This Kenya safari takes you to three different national parks and reserves, each with its own uniqueness in terms of animals and nature. We start in the Aberdare Mountains where we visit Solio Game Ranch where you have very good chances of seeing rhinos. On to Nakuru where we spend the night at the neighboring lake Elementaita with a wonderful view of this soda lake. Safari in Lake Nakuru National Park where we also have a good chance to see i.a. rhino but also leopard. We end this safari in the Masai Mara National Reserve with open savannas and abundant wildlife. The perfect safari for those who want to see a little more of Kenya and want a mixed safari experience with accommodation on smaller campers and wonderful safaris. Kenya is abbreviated as KE by Abbreviationfinder.

DAY 3
At 07.30 you leave Nairobi and start your safari adventure. Your first destination has a great location at the foot of the Aberdare’s Mountain Range. You go through the fertile hills of central Kenya and pass large coffee plantations and pineapple plantations that make this region known as “the breadbasket of Kenya”. You arrive at your accommodation, Rhino Watch Safari Lodge in good time for lunch. Satisfied and satisfied, you go out on an afternoon gamma drive in Solio Conservancy, here you have the opportunity to see black and white rhinos.
DAY 4
You check out from the lodge and drive to Nakuru. You will arrive at your accommodation at Sunbird Lodge, where you will also enjoy lunch, followed by an afternoon game drive in Lake Nakuru National Park.

DAY 5
You continue the safari southwest and reach the unique Masai Mara National Reserve in time for lunch and rest before your first game drive in the Masai Mara. You will need a moment of rest after riding the tough roads to the Masai Mara.
The reserve is one of the world’s largest with fantastic wildlife, including Africa’s “Big Five”. With one of the highest populations of predators on the continent such as lion, leopard and cheetah, Mara is in a class of its own.
DAY 6
Enjoy these days in the Masai Mara National Reserve, this world famous savannah with glorious game drives. You can plan with your guide how you want your game drives to be designed. Either you go out early in the morning and have a picnic breakfast or return to camp for breakfast. Full-day gamma drive with picnic lunch or game drive morning and afternoon with lunch at the camp.
