Full 7-Day Itinerary

Day 1 — Nairobi to Lake Naivasha: Arrival & Lake Boat Ride
Arrive at Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and meet your local safari guide before a scenic drive to Lake Naivasha, a freshwater gem of the Rift Valley. After check-in at your lake-side lodge, enjoy an afternoon boat ride on the calm waters—look for hippos, African fish eagles, and prolific water birds. Later, take a guided walk on Crescent Island (optional) among grazing giraffes and zebras for close but respectful wildlife viewing. Tonight, savor a lakeside dinner and conservation talk by your guide: learn about wetland protection, bird migration timing for 2026/2027/2028, and how the tour supports local communities. This gentle introduction sets the tone for wildlife and photography across the week.

Day 2 — Lake Naivasha to Lake Nakuru: Flamingos & Rhinos
After an early breakfast, depart for Lake Nakuru National Park, world-renowned for its concentrated birdlife and rhino sanctuaries. On arrival, head out on a guided game drive across the lakeshore and forest fragments where flocks of flamingos—when present—paint the shoreline pink. Your guide will prioritize spotting black and white rhinos in secure conservancy areas and explain anti-poaching measures. Midday, enjoy a picnic or lodge lunch, followed by a late afternoon game drive to catch golden light on the rift escarpments. Lake Nakuru’s mix of prideful predators and abundant birds offers superb photographic moments and a chance to discuss avian ecology with your expert guide.

Day 3 — Lake Nakuru to Masai Mara: Scenic Drive & Evening Game Drive
Today is a memorable overland drive to the legendary Masai Mara, crossing the Rift Valley floor and passing rural communities. Arrive at your Mara camp or lodge in time for lunch and a rest before your first Mara game drive. In the afternoon and at dusk, the Mara’s vast plains come alive: zebra, gazelle, buffalo and if you’re lucky, early big cat activity. Your guide will brief you on migration dynamics for 2026–2028 and suggest the best vantage points for river crossings. Evening brings a sundowner at a safe viewpoint and a campfire dinner (or lodge meal), where the guide reviews the plan for tomorrow’s full-day wildlife immersion.

Day 4 — Full Day Masai Mara (Migration & River Crossings)
Spend a full day following the Great Wildebeest Migration (seasonal) and the Mara’s resident predators. Early morning game drives capture predators at dawn; the guide times drives for likely sightings based on local ranger reports and wildlife behavior. If river crossings occur, you’ll observe dramatic scenes of wildebeest stacking, crocodile ambushes, and frantic crossings—prime photography opportunities handled with safety and ethics in mind. Between drives, relax at a picnic site or your camp and enjoy interpretive talks about predator–prey dynamics, Mara ecology, and community conservancy models. Optional hot-air balloon safaris (upgrade) provide an unmatched aerial view of the migration and Mara landscapes.

Day 5 — Masai Mara: Conservancy Game Drives & Cultural Visit
Today explore private conservancies adjoining the Mara for exclusive wildlife encounters away from main roads. These conservancies often allow flexible game drives and closer sightings of big cats and elephant families. Midday, meet Maasai hosts for a cultural visit that highlights local traditions, community conservancy benefits, and joint tourism projects—allowing travelers to learn how your safari gives back. Afternoon game drives focus on photographic hides and action zones recommended by your guide. Emphasis remains on low-impact viewing, following vehicle limits, and ethical photography to protect wildlife behavior for seasons 2026–2028.

Day 6 — Masai Mara to Amboseli: Transfer & Afternoon Game Drive
After breakfast, depart for Amboseli region (fly/drive options available) — a change of scenery from savanna plains to the broad Amboseli flats with Mount Kilimanjaro on the horizon. Arrive at your lodge, enjoy lunch, then head out for an afternoon game drive where Amboseli is famed for large elephant herds and exceptional photographic foreground of the mountain (weather permitting). Learn about Amboseli’s elephant family structures and the park’s research programs. Evening includes a lodge talk about highland-lowland conservation linkages and options for a sunrise drive tomorrow to maximize elephant-Kilimanjaro compositions for 2026–2028 portfolios.

Day 7 — Amboseli Sunrise Game Drive & Return to Nairobi / Departure
Rise early for a sunrise game drive to photograph elephants, scavengers, and the awakening savanna framed by Kilimanjaro’s changing light. This is the perfect time for close, atmospheric wildlife shots and an interpretive session with your guide about Amboseli’s long-term elephant monitoring and community outreach. After a hearty breakfast, begin the transfer back to Nairobi (or fly out from Amboseli’s airstrip where available). Arrive in Nairobi with time for final shopping or a city drop-off at your hotel/airport. End of tour: guests receive departure documentation, conservation donation receipts (if applicable), and advice for safe onward travel.
