Our well-maintained Jeeps are driven exclusively by highly skilled drivers and guides who take care of the safaris completely.
For optimum comfort, greater access to rough terrain, and superior views of wildlife from the higher seating position, a safari Jeep is a better choice if the budget allows.
As with the minivan, only the 6 window seats are used, so that you also have a bit more space around you for your belongings.

Masai Mara National Reserve

You've been dreaming of your safari for so long and now it's finally about to begin. You'll meet your guide who will tell you everything you need to know to get your safari started. We're as excited as you are to get your trip underway.

You're in for a really special safari experience on your visit to the Masai Mara National Reserve. This is one of the best places in Kenya to look for big cats. You may see so many elephant, giraffe, Thomson's gazelle, buffalo, zebra, wildebeest and hippo that you stop noticing them after a while! And these are just the start: watch for the reserve's population of black rhino, which are present in the Mara Triangle although they can be pretty hard to spot. Beautiful savannah grasslands, acacia trees, distant escarpments and more than 500 possible bird species are other highlights you can look forward to.

Fig Tree Camp Mid-Range

Tented camp Inside Masai Mara National Reserve

The Talek River almost completely surrounds you at lovely Fig Tree Camp, and many of the safari tents and chalets face right onto the river. Relax in the swimming pool, or in the bar and restaurant, but most of the time you're here, you'll want to just sit by the river and wait for the wildlife to come down to drink.

Day 4

Lake Nakuru National Park

On your visit to Lake Nakuru National Park, you can expect some fantastic wildlife experiences. Flamingos have returned to the lake in varying numbers. You might also see tree-climbing lions, endangered Rothschild's giraffes, and the park's thriving populations of both black and white rhinos. And because the park is relatively compact, your chances of seeing these and other animals are excellent. The park's scenery, too, is a highlight, with the picturesque lake as a centerpiece. The acacia woodlands are especially pretty, and the views of the lake are best from the Out of Africa Lookout (where some scenes from the 1985 film were shot).
