Kenya Tours: Wildlife Tour, Aberdares Safari, Lake
Nakuru, Masai Mara
Kenya Road Safari 4 Nights/5 Days
Tour Summary/ Features:
This safari takes you through three very different game
viewing experiences: Aberdares, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara.
In the Aberdares 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
then head to Maasai Mara, Kenya’s most famous and finest
game sanctuary. The Mara offers wildlife in such variety
and abundance that it is difficult to believe: over 450
species of animals have been recorded here. You will easily
see the Big Five- lion, rhino, buffalo, leopard, and elephant.
The famous Maasai tribesmen live within the dispersal area
of the game reserve.

Ark, one of the two famous tree hotel in the Aberdares National
Park.
Aberdares
National Park has a diverse topography that includes icy
rivers, spectacular waterfalls and rain forests. The flora
and fauna is quite unique and is not found elsewhere in
the country, expect on Mount Kenya. Leopard, elephant, serval,
waterbuck, reedbuck, dikdik, rhino and the rare bongo can

Nakuru's claim to fame is anchored on its flamingo's and

is a soda lake on the floor of the rift valley. The sight
of the at times millions of flamingos is quite spectacular.
From a distance the lake appears ringed in pink. The Lake
