The Masai Mara is Kenya's ultimate game reserve and one of the best in the world, so any safari here will be special. However, if you are coming to the Mara, then why not stay at its most famous camp, with its traditionally colonial atmosphere. Located in the heart of the reserve and alongside the Mara river, Govenor's Camp has been recently featured on BBC's Big Cat Diaries. This tented camp is luxuriously appointed in an old fashioned way and is famed for its exquisite service, it's a real 'Out of Africa' experience! And what about the wildlife? Well, the Mara is teeming with game of all descriptions and it is here that you have the very best chance of spotting the Big Five together with all the other creatures that make a visit to the Mara so unique. You will enjoy three game drives in the reserve at different times of the day, giving you optimum viewing opportunities, and all the vehicles here are 4WD, giving you the chance that little bit closer.....
Two days and one night in Tsavo Park will introduce you to the magic of Kenya's largest game reserve. You'll complete several game drives, hoping to spot lion, giraffe, warthog, buffalo and the red elephants who take their name from rolling in the coloured soils of the park. Saltlick Lodge is Kenya's most unusual accommodation in architectural design with the bedrooms in rondavels on stilts. Whilst sipping a cool drink at the bar, overlooking the spotlit watering hole at night, you'll really believe you're in the heart of Africa.
Este tour es una combinación ideal para personas que tienen muy poco tiempo en Nairobi. Al principio visitaremos el Parque Nacional de Nairobi situado a 10 kilómetros (6 millas) del centro de la capital. Fundado en 1946, tiene 114 km cuadrados (44 millas) de sabana virgen con un amplio ganado migratorio de caza y se encuentra entre el ferrocarril de Nairobi-Mombasa y el suburbio jardinero de Langata. Está abierto en su perímetro sur-este y aquí el Área de Conservación de Kitengela permite la migración natural del ganado que tiene lugar durante las lluvias estacionales. Después de visitar el parque tomaremos un almuerzo en el restaurante El Carnívoro. Famoso por sus suculentos bistecs, platos de barbacoa y gran variedad de carne de caza, el Carnívoro casi se ha convertido en un punto de referencia de Nairobi que no se puede perder y hasta un atractivo turístico como el Museo Nacional. Terminaremos nuestro viaje con un espectáculo preparado por varios bailarines tradicionales y más tarde una orientación entre las distintas tribus de Kenia en la tierra de Bomas de Kenia.
