Overview

This four-day circuit adds Lake Nakuru National Park to the classic Mara safari. Nakuru is Kenya’s most reliable park for both black and white rhino, and on a good day the shoreline turns pink with flamingos.

The route is efficient: two nights in the Mara, one night in Nakuru, with no backtracking. It is a good choice for first-time visitors who want variety without long drives.
