Depart UK and fly to Nairobi

On arrival in Nairobi, you will be met at the airport and taken to your hotel. Your tour leader will run through the tour itinerary and answer any questions. The rest of the day is free to enjoy the facilities at the hotel and relax after your journey. Overnight in Nairobi. (Safari Club) Meals: no meals included today.

Today you will have a full day in Nairobi. The children will love visiting the two sites we have included today. You will spend an hour or so at the Elephant Orphanage watching whilst the baby elephants are being fed and perhaps bathed by their handlers. The orphanage seeks to prepare the orphaned elephants for eventual re-introduction into the wild.

Next you will head to the Giraffe Centre. Expert guides will teach the kids all about giraffes and how to tell the different species apart (a skill they will be able to practice when on safari) if they are brave enough they can also try feeding them - did you know giraffes have blue tongues!

This morning you will drive north from Nairobi to Lake Nakuru, one of the many lakes of the Great Rift Valley. This soda lake forms the centrepiece of the Lake Nakuru National Park and is famous for the thousands of pink flamingos which can be found here.

This morning there will be an early game drive in the park. After breakfast you will continue the tour to Lake Naivasha, a drive of about two hours. The lake here is surrounded by shady acacia woodland and attracts a wide variety of birds and wildlife. In the afternoon you can take a guided boat ride out on the lake in search of hippo. The rest of the day is free to enjoy the pool at the hotel. Overnight in Naivasha (Lodge) Meals: breakfast, dinner

This morning you will drive southwest to the Masai Mara Reserve, one of the most famous wildlife areas in Africa. This part of the country is particularly beautiful with rolling green plains and riverine woodlands. Amongst the huge diversity of species here are; black-maned lions, leopard, cheetah, wildebeest, zebra and Thompson’s Gazelle. As with all areas that we visit, the Mara is not a zoo and sightings of particular species cannot be guaranteed, but with three days here, the chances of seeing at least some of the ‘Big Five’ are good. Overnight in the Masai Mara (Lodge) Meals: breakfast, dinner

Our lodge here is positioned just outside the reserve, the best time for game viewing is early - mid morning and from mid afternoon – sunset. During the hotter time of day is time to relax, enjoy the beautiful surroundings and cool off in the pool. Today there will be a morning game drive and in the afternoon there is a chance to walk to the nearby Masai villages and learn about the tribe and how they live. Overnight in the Masai Mara (Lodge) Meals: breakfast, dinner

There will be a morning and afternoon game drive in the Mara today with free time to enjoy the lodge facilities. This will be you last day in the Mara so keep those eyes peeled for any elusive animals you have not yet spotted. Overnight in the Masai Mara (Lodge) Meals: breakfast, dinner

Today you will drive back to Nairobi, arriving in the late afternoon. You will check-in at the same Safari Club as before and there will be time to relax after a long journey or make use of the pool for the last time. In the evening your tour leader will take the group out to the famous Carnivore Restaurant where you can sample such delicacies as Ostrich, Crocodile and Zebra.
