Itinerary Highlights: Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara Safari

Day 1: Nairobi to Lake Nakuru National Park

Your journey begins with a morning departure from Nairobi, traveling through the scenic Great Rift Valley to reach Lake Nakuru National Park by lunchtime. The Lake Nakuru 4 days tour kicks off with an afternoon game drive showcasing the park’s incredible biodiversity.

Activities in Lake Nakuru Tour on your first day include:

  • Photographing the spectacular pink flamingo flocks (seasonal)
  • Spotting endangered white and black rhinos
  • Searching for tree-climbing lions unique to this region
  • Viewing Rothschild giraffes grazing against stunning lake backdrops
  • Visiting panoramic viewpoints like Baboon Cliff for breathtaking vistas

Overnight accommodation at a comfortable lodge inside or near the park ensures you’re perfectly positioned for wildlife viewing.

Day 2: Lake Nakuru to Masai Mara National Reserve

After breakfast and a final morning game drive in Lake Nakuru, you’ll journey westward to the world-renowned Masai Mara National Reserve. This leg of your Lake Nakuru & Masai Mara adventure takes approximately 5-6 hours through picturesque Kenyan landscapes.

Upon arrival at the Masai Mara in the afternoon, you’ll be greeted with your first game drive across the reserve’s legendary plains. Witness the stunning diversity of wildlife that makes the Masai Mara famous, potentially including lions, cheetahs, elephants, and numerous antelope species.

Evening accommodation at a luxurious tented camp or lodge within the Masai Mara, complete with authentic safari ambiance and delicious cuisine.

Day 3: Full Day in Masai Mara National Reserve

Day three is entirely dedicated to exploring the magnificent Masai Mara. You’ll have several options to make the most of your time:

  • Early morning game drive when predators are most active
  • Full-day expedition with picnic lunch in the bush
  • Visit to a local Maasai village to experience traditional culture (optional extra)
  • Sunrise hot air balloon safari floating over the plains (optional premium experience)

During the migration season (July to October), witness the spectacular wildebeest migration – one of nature’s most impressive wildlife spectacles. Your experienced guide will track the latest animal movements to maximize sightings during your Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara Safari.

Day 4: Masai Mara to Mombasa via Nairobi

Your final safari morning features one last game drive in the Masai Mara before departing for Nairobi’s Wilson Airport. From here, you’ll board an afternoon flight to Mombasa, where the second part of your Kenyan adventure begins along the stunning Indian Ocean coastline.

This efficient transfer from safari to sea allows you to be enjoying Mombasa’s beaches by evening, with no accommodation needed in Nairobi.

Best Time to Visit

The best time to go to Lake Nakuru is during the dry seasons from January to March and June to October when wildlife congregates around water sources. For the Masai Mara, July to October offers the additional spectacle of the Great Migration, though the reserve teems with resident wildlife year-round.

If you’re hoping to combine your safari with excellent beach weather in Mombasa, January to March provides ideal conditions for both experiences.
