By booking this 8 days Kenya scenic adventure safari, you get a chance to explore a number of wildlife ecosystems. The adventure starts with a drive to Kenya’s most visited reserve, the Masai Mara. The reserve is famous for its abundance in wild animals especially during the annual wildebeests migration, where large masses of wildebeests accompanied by zebras and other ungulates move from the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania to Masai Mara. The main spectacle, besides the big five, is normally at the Mara river as the animals plunge into the crocodile infested river and some will get trapped and eventually grabbed during the stampede. The safari then takes you to the floor of the Rift Valley to Naivasha. You will marvel at the unique attractions in this region the highlight being the Lake Naivasha (the highest lake in the Rift Valley). This fresh water lake also supports the vibrant floriculture around it. Besides the farms, there are a number of tourist resorts around the lake, making it a popular tourist destination for both domestic and international tourists. Amboseli then welcomes you as you head further south. Amboseli National Park is strategically located at the feet of the mighty Mt. Kilimanjaro.
