Day 1 Nairobi
The journey begins in Kenya's multicultural capital. Get to know this modern city with its colourful markets and atmospheric bars.
Day 2 Lake Nakuru
Pitch tents alongside glistening Lake Nakuru then head out on an afternoon game drive. Fringed by acacia trees, the lake shimmers pink throughout the year as hundreds of flamingos descend upon it. Keep an eye out for other wildlife; the savannah area also boasts a wide variety of animals including giraffes and lions.
Days 3-4 Lake Naivasha
Discover this birdwatchers' paradise ringed by flat-topped acacia trees. In free time its possible to cruise the lake to spot hippos, trek into Hell's Gate National Park to explore its dramatic caves and gorges or simply relax in the lakeside surrounds.
Day 5 Loita Hills
Travel across the Great Rift Valley floor to Loita Hills, right in the heart of Masai country. Tonight, camp among these friendly, semi-nomadic tribespeople and learn about their ancient culture. Perhaps pick up a local recipe while sharing a campfire meal.
Days 6-7 Masai Mara National Reserve
Help the Masai milk their cattle before tackling the world-renowned Masai Mara National Reserve: a huge area of woodlands and open plains backed by the striking Esoit Oloololo Escarpment. Safaris through the park might reveal prides of lions, herds of elephants and maybe even a stealthy cheetah. In the rainy season this area is flooded by over a million wildebeest on their annual migration.
Day 8 Nairobi
Travel through Masai farmlands and back to the urban jungle of Nairobi.
