Day 1 Nairobi: Our safari begins in Kenya's capital city at the Norfolk Hotel, watering hole for the pioneers and Happy Valley set of 1920's Kenya. 1 overnight Norfolk Hotel Days 2,3 The Great Rift Valley: We fly by private charter aircraft (20 minutes) to the Great Rift Valley to spend two nights in this former family home on the shores of Lake Naivasha, renowned for its Hippos and birdlife. Across the lake the view is dominated by the distinctive outcrop of Longonot an extinct volcano. We spend a day in Lake Nakuru National Park, home to Black and White Rhino, Rothschild's Giraffe (rarely seen elsewhere), Zebra, Buffalo, Eland, Waterbuck as well as Lion and Leopard. Hundreds of thousands of flamingoes and hundreds of white pelicans dwell in this lakeside sanctuary. 2 overnights Loldia House Days 4,5,6 Maasai Mara Reserve: After a leisurely breakfast we fly by 40 minute private charter to the Maasai Mara. Here we spend the next 3 days exploring the world's greatest wildlife spectacle with miles and miles of open plains: Rhino, Elephant, Giraffe and herds of Buffalo, Wildebeeste, Zebra and other plains game attended by their predators - Lion, Cheetah, Leopard. This is the heartbeat of Africa: the chase, the kill, the mating…the rituals of daily survival. 3 overnights Mara Explorer Days 7,8,9 Tanzania and Serengeti: After breakfast and a game drive to the airstrip we take the scheduled flight to Nairobi to connect with the flight to Arusha, Tanzania. On arrival you transfer to a short, internal flight to The Grumeti airstrip in the heart of the Serengeti arriving early afternoon, and in time for an afternoon game drive. We spend our days exploring this most famous of Tanzania’s remote national parks, home to more than 2 million large mammals, the largest concentration anywhere in the world. Continually migrating in search of fresh grazing on the short grass over plains that stretch as far as the eye can see, the herds of Wildebeest, Zebra, Thomson’s and Grant’s Gazelles are perpetually stalked by their predators: Lion, Leopard and Hyena. 3 overnights Kirawira Tented Camp Days 10,11 Ngorongoro Crater: We fly on across the Serengeti Plains to Ngorongoro Crater. The crater protects an incredible wildlife spectacle: the floor of this extinct volcano, some 2000 feet below the rim spans, 102 miles of savannah, lakes and marshes conserves over 30,000 large mammals, the greatest concentration of resident mammals in all of Africa. 2 overnights Ngorongoro Crater Lodge
