7 Days Nairobi to Mara Safari Tour

The short transfer between Nakuru and Naivasha is barely noticeable. But you will tell by the shift in the ambiance as more birds welcome you. Lake Naivasha is for the adventurers, occasionally raging with storms like an untamable spirit.

You will go on a boat ride across the lake if the weather permits. You will also visit the nearby Crescent Island to see animals in the protected game sanctuary. Lake Naivasha promises even more interesting and colorful birds. Then after a hearty meal, you will retire in preparation for the next day.

Be ready to take a walk on the wild side on the third day, for you will visit the neighboring Hell's Gate National Park, the inspirational setting for the classic Disney animated film, 'The Lion King.'

Don't let the name scare you, as it refers to the geothermal activities within its enclosures. This excellent site spreads across the sky-scraping cliffs, rock towers, volcanoes, geothermal steam, and scrub. This day trip will introduce you to adventurous activities, including mountain biking, a natural spa, and rock climbing.

Next, you will travel to one of Baringo's hidden gems. This beautiful place hosts a series of small hot springs trickling from the ground on a seasonal river bed. Your first impression of the riverbed may be underwhelming, but we encourage you to keep going and stay positive.

You will get to play in the multiple hot springs that connect through thin corners and streams. A dip into these hot springs feels like a well-deserved bath. The waters are warm and welcoming.

And finally, you will travel from your spa sensation to the wildlife hub of Kenya. Masai Mara National Reserve has spectacularity to offer in wildlife and scenery.
