Welcome to Enchanting-Africa! Our tour manager will receive you at the airport in Nairobi and take you to your hotel for check in.

Explore Nairobi, the safari capital of Africa and a city that never seems to sleep. Experience one of the lively and colourful street markets, the fantastic music scene and one of the many excellent restaurants. Alternatively, discover the Karen Blixen museum, giraffe centre where you can feed giraffes or venture into Nairobi National Park, just outside town, with its cliffs and forests and large herds of Zebra, Wildebeest, Buffalo, Giraffe and more.

Accommodation: House of Waine or Fairview Hotel

Drive to Aberdares (3-4 hours)

The Aberdares offer striking mountain scenery - a mix of the alps combined with stretches of dense jungle and amazing waterfalls, with the largest a stunning 300m plunge. You can also see lots of animals as the park has a high concentration of buffaloes, elephants, hyenas and the rare bongo antelope. You can relax while fishing at the lovely streams, explore the waterfalls on foot or climb Lesatima Peak, with 4000 metres the highest point of the Aberdares with great views of Central Kenya.

Accommodation: Fishing Lodge

Drive Aberdares – Lake Nakuru (ca. 5 hours)

Lake Nakuru is one of the alkaline Rift Valley lakes with its shores populated at times by more than one million flamingos which has been called "the greatest bird spectacle on earth". Game drives offer you the opportunity to get as close as ten meters to this spectacle and to see elephants, giraffe, rhino and the elusive tree climbing lions. Enjoy the variety of wildlife combined with its striking and varied landscapes - driving through the savannah, passing by the lake and the swamps and negotiating the rocky path up to the baboon cliffs with their stunning views across the entire park will create a sense of wonder and admiration in even the most travelled visitor.

Lake Baringo & Bogoria

Drive Lake Nakuru – Lake Baringo (ca. 2 hours)

Lake Bogoria has achieved fame as the "new home of flamingos", with a migrant population of up to two million birds. The reserve offers plenty of wildlife apart from flamingos including leopard and is one of few parks in Kenya accessible on foot and bike.

Lake Baringo is a fresh water lake and with its picturesque islands and encircling mountains is a spectacular sight. The lake has a lot of fish and consequently many herons, cormorants and marabus can be found here. On Gibraltar Island, a birders paradise, are breeding more Goliath herons then anywhere else in East Africa. Bird walks and boat rides are the most popular activities around Lake Baringo but cultural tours to local villages can be arranged as well.

Drive Lake Baringo – Lake Naivasha (ca. 3.5 hours), flight to Masai Mara (ca. 1 hour)

The Masai Mara – endless seas of golden grass dotted with hesitant shrubs, broken here and there with the ghostly acacia trees and ringed by distant hills, the chocolate Mara river waters with frolicking hippos, immensely rich animal life including countless game and large prides of lions – fulfils the expectations of any visitor searching the African landscapes portrayed in movies such as "Out of Africa". From July to October, this is the sight of one of the most spectacular and dramatic sites on earth - the annual migration of one million wildebeests and 200,000 zebras following the seasonal rains in a quest for the best pastures, finding along the way the crocodile-crowded river.

Flight Masai Mara – Lake Manyara (ca. 4 hours), transfer to Ngorongoro Crater (ca. 1 hour)

The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the natural wonders of the world; its six mountain peaks are constantly in view and sightings of the big five – lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo and leopard – are frequent. The plains and swamps teem with game and an enormous variety of birds. The conservation area is also home to Maasai people and their cattle which co-exist with the existing wildlife in a unique ecosystem. The foothills between the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Lake Manyara offer beautiful lush green landscapes dotted with picturesque coffee and tea plantations.

Accommodation: Crater Lodge or Gibb's Farm

Transfer Ngorongoro Crater – Serengeti (3-6 hours, depending on the camp)

Flight Serengeti – Selous (3-4 hours)

Selous Game Reserve is Africa’s largest protected wildlife reserve, and due to its remote location, it has remained one of the untouched gems of Tanzania’s parks.

Flight from Selous to Dar es Salaam (ca. 45 min)

Enjoy a memorable good bye dinner at one of Dar es Salaam's diverse restaurants before you transfer to the International Airport for departure.
