5 days/4nights Aberdare /Nakuru and Masai Mara game
parks.
This
safari takes you through three very different game viewing
experiences: Aberdare, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. In the
Aberdare you find icy rivers, spectacular waterfalls and rain
forests. Here elephants, buffalos and other animals visit you at
the floodlit waterholes of The Ark. Lake Nakuru's claim to fame
is anchored on its flamingo's and the over 400 species of birds
found here. This soda lake on the floor of the Rift Valley is
host to millions of flamingos and an important refuge for
endangered species- particularly Rothschild Giraffe and black
and white rhino. You will easily see the Big Five- lion, rhino,
buffalo, leopard, and elephant. The famous Masai tribesmen live
within the dispersal area of the game reserve.
