Tour Overview

This 10-days Bush And Beach safari combines Kenya's Lake Nakuru National Park, a treat for birdwatchers and a rhino sanctuary with the legendary Masai Mara National Reserve. Get the best of both worlds on this adventurous road and air safari. Your tip begins with a 3-hour drive northwest of Kenya's capital, Nairobi to Lake Nakuru National Park. Lake Nakuru is bird- and animal watchers’ haven. The Park has over 400 bird species. These include, herons, pelicans, storks and the conic African fish eagle. Lake Nakuru is also home to a vast number of mammals (56 species) including a healthy population of the highly endangered rhino. The Park has four of the Big Five (Lion, Leopard, Buffalo and Rhino) except the Elephant. Expect to see tree-climbing Lion, Cheetahs, Python, Hyenas, Jackal, Rothschilds giraffes, zebra, hippo, impala, waterbuck, and plenty of baboons and monkeys. After a night in Lake Nakuru we get back on the road and make our way to our next game viewing destination in Kenya, the world-famous Masai Mara Game Reserve. We spend 3 nights in the Mara on morning and afternoon game drives in search of Africa’s Big Five and the plethora of other wildlife. The Maasai Mara is home to the Masai giraffe, Baboons, Warthogs, Bat-eared foxes, grey jackals, spotted Hyena, Topi, Impala, Hartebeests, Wildebeest, Elephants, Buffalos, Zebra, Hippo, Cheetah. The ultimate action here is without a doubt the annual wildebeest exodus, the Great Migration. In August and September millions of these grazers move north from the Serengeti in search of lusher grass before turning south again in October. Balloon trips are an entirely wonderful way seeing the savannah plains teeming with wildlife. These Masai Mara balloon trips can be arranged at extra cost. After your game-viewing adventure in Masai Mara, we fly to Mombasa and spend the next four days enjoying the sunshine and the warm Indian Ocean at a beach resort near Mombasa, on the coast of East Africa. Mombasa is the second biggest city in Kenya and boasts the largest port on the East African coastline. Relax on the sandy beaches and dip in the sea, taking it easy after our action-packed game viewing in Kenya's finest wildlife areas. You can also enjoy optional (extra cost) activities and water sports in and around Mombasa, a chaotic melting pot of Indian, Arabic and African influences.

The absolute peace of immense vistas, muted colours and crisp fresh air… and the ever present promise of something wild…. as the balloons float you silently above it all “like a dream come true”. The hot air balloon safari tours in Kenya lift off at dawn (06:15) after coffee and a flight briefing. The one hour flight will give you a bird’s eye view of the best Kenya has to offer in the magnificent setting of the Great Rift Valley. After you land, a champagne breakfast in the bush adds to the buzz you will get from the early morning air and the sights and sounds that only an eagle ever sees.

We had an amazing experience - everything was organised perfectly, with itinerary ideally planned. Our guide, James, was highly professional throughout the whole week he was with us. The safari car was in perfect condition, very clean, stocked with fresh water and very comfortable. Most importantly, James is a perfect driver, able to navigate off-road conditions with ease. The beach experience at Diani was the best! On the safari itself our guide went out of his way to give us the best experience ever so that we see as many animals up close as possible. Can't recommend him enough!
