Overview
The 4-day Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru safari from Nairobi takes you to Kenya’s two most visited parks, each unique in its own way with lots to offer. Masai Mara is famous all over the world for its annual wildebeest migration . This event brings millions of wildebeest from the Serengeti to the Masai Mara in search of water and pasture. This is no ordinary crossing. As the wildebeest attempt to cross the Mara River, they will encounter crocodiles, lions, and predators. Lake Nakuru National Park, on the other hand, offers quite a unique experience. The park is home to many black and white rhinos, both endangered species. The lake itself is a sight to behold and a must-see during your Kenya safari. Millions of flamingos inhabit it, and all you can see is a mass of pink in every direction.
