7-Day Magical Mara–Nakuru–Naivasha–Amboseli Safari 25–26

Experience of a lifetime: Soft light spills across savannah grasses as you enter the Maasai Mara. Dawn unfurls its golden promise while wildebeest and zebra ripple under endless skies. Flamingos blush on Lake Nakuru’s turquoise edge; hippos drift in Naivasha’s glassy shallows. In Amboseli, Kilimanjaro’s white crown stands watch as elephants trace riverbeds. (7) Seven days, seven acts of wild poetry, Kenya’s heartbeat echoing in every sunrise and star-strewn night.
