The Maasai Mara Game Reserve is arguably Kenya’s most popular

reserve in Kenya. The film ‘Out of Africa’ was made to a great
extent in this reserve. Virtually every type of wildlife can be
seen at the Mara. A spectacle worth seeing is the annual
migration of millions of wildebeest, zebra and gazelle from
Serengeti plains across the Tanzania border and the Mara River
to reach Maasai Mara grazing fields from late June. The dramatic
crossing of the river and the preying on the migrants by
predators can be viewed from early July to August. The reserve
abounds with birdlife since dose to about 452 species have been
recorded. Hot air balloon safaris are readily available in this
park

Lake Nakuru's claim to fame is anchored on its flamingo's and
the over 400 species of birds found here. The lake itself is a
soda lake on the floor of the rift valley. The sight of the at
times millions of flamingos is quite spectacular. From a
distance the lake appears ringed in pink. The Lake has also
earned a reputation as an important haven for endangered
species- particularly the Rothschild Giraffe and the black and
white rhino. Lions, waterbuck, buffalo and baboons are all
residents here

drive , dinner and overnight at a campsite
Located beneath the cliffs of the Manyara Escarpment, on the
edge of the Rift Valley, Lake Manyara National Park offers
varied ecosystems, incredible bird life, and breathtaking views.
Lake Manyara’s famous tree-climbing lions are another reason to
pay this park a visit. The only kind of their species in the
world, they make the ancient mahogany and elegant acacias their
home during the rainy season, and are a well-known but rather
rare feature of the northern park. In addition to the lions, the
national park is also home to the largest concentration of
baboons anywhere in the world -- a fact that makes for
interesting game viewing of large families of the primates

Serengeti is easily Tanzania’s most famous national park, and
it’s also the largest, at 14,763 square kilometers of protected
area that borders Kenya’s Masai Mara Game ParkIt is the
Migration for which Serengeti is perhaps most famous. Over a
million wildebeest and about 200,000 zebras flow south from the
northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every
October and November, and then swirl west and north after the
long rains in April, May and June. So strong is the ancient
instinct to move that no drought, gorge or crocodile infested
river can hold them back. The Wildebeest travel through a
variety of parks, reserves and protected areas and through a
variety of habitat. Join us to explore the different forms of
vegetation and landscapes of the Serengeti ecosystem and meet
some of their most fascinating inhabitants.
Day 9 : Serengeti - Ngorongoro crater
We view game as we drive southeast up into the magnificent
Ngorongoro Conservation .Full afternoon crater tour followed by
dinner and overnight stay at a Simba campsite by the crater rim.
The Ngorongoro crater is the world’s biggest whole volcanic
caldera at 8300 sq km and is arguably the most stunning arena.
It is frequently described as one of the wonders of the world,
not only because of its geological magnificence, but also
because it serves as an extraordinary natural sanctuary for some
of Africa’s largest populations of large mammals. Ngorongoro and
other freestanding mountains are volcanic in origin, formed
during the fracturing process that created the Rift valley 15 to
20 million years ago. When it peaked in size 3 million years ago
it was a similar height to Mt. Kilimanjaro today
