Tour Plan

Day 1 Nairobi to the shores of Lake Naivasha

Your private safari adventure begins as we collect you from your hotel, residence, or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. Preferably before 8:00am, our driver-guide will meet you for a safari briefing before departing for the Rift Valley escarpments to the floor of the valley where Lake Naivasha, a popular fresh water Lake lies.

Lake Naivasha and its surrounding parks are a varied world of birds, grazing game, and landscapes easily explored by boat and foot as we have planned for you. You will arrive at your Lodge for lunch and after go out to the Lake for an afternoon boat ride to enjoy the lake’s fresh waters as you view numerous water life that includes birds and animals.

We will glide by hippos and transfer you for a guided walking safari at Crescent Island Game Sanctuary. This beautiful piece of paradise hosts an abundance of bird life, especially large numbers of pelicans, cormorant and fish eagles. Walk amongst Giraffes, Zebras and more and see hippos grazing in the cool afternoon air or resting under acacia trees in the heat of day. The scenic beauty and sense of freedom in this little Sanctuary has seen many film makers alight on its shores to film herds of wildebeest, water buck and zebra passing through the grassy Savannah.

The day will end in the evening with dinner and overnight back at your Lodge.

Though you won't have much time here, Lake Victoria is impressive. This body of water is notable for being Africa's largest lake and the second-largest freshwater lake globally. It spans 210 miles (337 km) from north to south and 150 miles (240 km) across, with a coastline of more than 2,000 miles (3,220 km). One popular activity is to grab a fishing pole and see if you can catch some tilapia.

Spend the day living the dream of every wildlife enthusiast as you embark on safaris across the wondrous Serengeti. This legendary park is one of the largest and oldest ecosystems on Earth, created in 1951 and covering about 14,800 km2 of open plains. Thus, its name Serengeti (from the word Siringet, meaning “endless” plain in maa, the language of the Maasai).

Besides being a great place to spot the Big Five, the Serengeti hosts the annual Great Migration. From June to November, this "greatest wildlife show on earth" sees more than a million wildebeest, plus hundreds of thousands of zebras and Thomson's gazelles, undertake the long trek to new grazing grounds.

You'll enjoy both morning and afternoon game drives to witness exotic animals in the park. You'll likely see grazing giraffes and zebras, and perhaps even lions as they hunt wildebeests and gazelles in herds or elephants and buffalo, with leopards and rhinos being a less common sight. You can choose to have lunch on the road or back at camp, after which you'll continue the game drive into the afternoon.
