– Visit to the Ol Pejeta Conservancy where you can feed the tame black rhino from a specially created feeding platform. Black rhinos are by nature very aggressive and territorial and this will probably be your only opportunity of ever getting close to one of these magnificent and endangered creatures. Be sure to have your camera ready for this once-in-a-lifetime experience. You will also have the prospect of visiting the Morani Information Centre, named in honor of the first tame black rhino that called this conservancy home. The centre affords visitors a chance to learn about the large variety of wildlife in the reserve and also provides comprehensive information as to how modern wildlife conservancy operates.
– Visit to the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary, the only place in Kenya where these highly endangered and incredibly intelligent primates can be found. The sanctuary provides a haven for orphaned and abused chimpanzees that enjoy roaming freely in their vast natural enclosure.
Many of the chimps that are taken to the sanctuary have been orphaned due to the abuse of man, and often arrive traumatized and ill. Through hard work and dedication, the staff assists the chimps in their rehabilitation and integration into one of the two groups within the reserve. The chimpanzees here can never be reintroduced into the wild and guests can ‘adopt’ one for a fee. The revenue collected goes back into the sanctuary to aid its ongoing operations.

Located 156 km northwest of Nairobi, Lake Nakuru derives its name from the Masai word “Enakuro” which means cloud of dust. It is home to many herbivores including Rothschild’s giraffe, buffalo, hippo, gazelle and nearly 55 mammals including lions, leopards, spotted hyenas, rock hyraxes and reedbuck. Lake Nakuru National Park is famous for hosting both white and black rhinoceros, reintroduced after many years’ absences.

-Discover the Masai Mara National Reserve, the most famous and most visited reserve in Kenya. Covering an area of 1510 km², the Masai Mara reserve is in fact the extension in Kenyan territory of the vast Serengeti Park in Tanzania. Together, they constitute a huge ecosystem in which animals move freely. All large African animals are present. Thomson’s and Grant’s gazelles, impala, Kirk’s dik-dik, bushbuck, topi, buffalo, ellipsen waterbuck, eland and giraffe, all are there. Famous for its rich wildlife, the Masai Mara is home to not only the “Big 5” (elephant, lion, buffalo, rhino and leopard) but also many birds (over 500 species of birds have been recorded). Along the rivers, crocodiles and hippos lie in wait.
In the Maa language, Mara means “spotted” and may refer to the colorful landscapes. Alternatively, the name may refer to the arrival of over two million herbivores during the annual migration (wildebeest, gazelles and zebras).

The balloon safari ends by touching down in the wilds of the Masai Mara to enjoy a delectable champagne breakfast. Sundowner in the wonderland of the Kenyan Rift Valley. Known as the birthplace of mankind, chances are you will never feel closer to the essence of nature and human existence than when sitting on one of the Rift Valley plains, surrounded by spectacular scenery, a multitude of animals, beautiful lakes and birds of every kind.
