Day
4: Samburu – Drive
to Mount
Kenya Safari Club
This
morning we drive to the magnificent Mount Kenya Safari
Club nestled in the foothills of snow–capped
Mount Kenya. Its sprawling colonial design was influenced
by the late actor William Holden, who founded the Club
in 1959 with two of his friends.
His
love for Africa led him to make Kenya his second home
for over twenty-five years. The club has over the years
attracted legions of internationally renowned members
and guests from the world of politics, film and theatre.
Sir Winston Churchill and Lord Mountbatten were members,
and enjoyed sojourns at the club, as have legends Clark
Gable and John Wayne, and more recent celebrities such
as Robert Redford, Sean Connery and Catherine Deneuve.
You
too will receive the star treatment as you settle into
your suite or cozy cottage. Pay a visit and do not miss
the animal orphanage operated by the William Holden
Wildlife Foundation. Here wildlife foundlings are raised
with great care and many are quite tame. It is an opportunity
to get close to some wild creatures that despite a struggle
have managed to survive.

Day
5: Mount Kenya Safari Club – Drive
to Masai
Mara Game Reserve
After
breakfast depart for Masai Mara. This is the Africa
of your imagination, where panoramas are vast. It is
a country of rolling grasslands, dense thickets of scrub
and groves of acacia woodland where predators might
hide. Luxuriant forest grows along the banks of the
Mara River, where hippos and crocodiles bask in the
sun.
The
Mara is considered the finest game sanctuary in Kenya,
home to an astonishing number and variety of animals.
According to the season, hundreds of thousands of migratory
Wildebeest, Gazelle and Zebra move back and forth between
the Mara and the plains and woodlands to the south.
Enjoy
lunch at Naivasha Country Club and continue to the Mara
for your afternoon ‘Spice’ game run, when
your driver will set off in pursuit of the great herds.
Overnight at Keekorok Lodge or Mara Safari Club or Kichwa
Tembo Camp or Mara Serena Lodge

Day
6: Explore Masai Mara Game Reserve
Your
day begins with an early morning ‘Spice’
game drive taking you into the Mara plains when the
animals are most active.
On
the other hand, you may choose to add a hot air balloon
safari – the ultimate safari experience! You leave
camp before dawn – the sky is clear, the air is
brisk and the conditions are perfect. As the sun rises
over the Mara plains in your balloon lifts off, a bright
splash of color rising into the blue.
Watch
as a stunning panorama unfolds below you and the balloon’s
basket becomes your lookout post for a bird’s-eye
view of the beauty of Africa. Float silently just a
few hundred feet above herds of wild animals. Gazelle
and Impala watch curiously with their tails flagging
– a warning to others that you are approaching.
A
pride of Lions stalks an unsuspecting herd of Wildebeest.
Giraffes poke their heads out of the forest where they
have been nibbling tender leaves. The tranquility of
the experience is interrupted only by the occasional
‘whoosh’ of the air heaters.
Finally,
you gently touch down, with an appetite sharpened by
the fresh air, all ready for a delicious champagne breakfast
in the middle of the bush. After a relaxing repast,
continue honing your game spotting skills on a game
drive as you make your way back to the camp/ Lodge.
After
lunch and some time to relax, enjoy a second ‘Spice’
game drive this afternoon.
Overnight

Day
7: Masai Mara – Drive to Nairobi
Begin the day with an optional bush walk,
an intimate exploration of the world of the African
savannah. Use all your senses as you encounter the sights,
sound and smell that surround you.
Your guide will point
out brilliantly colored birds, camouflaged game of every
variety, and a wealth of flora. Learn the skills of
successful tracking as you follow animal trails in the
dust, watching for each clue to their habits and movements.
Alternatively, you may
take the regular morning ‘Spice’ game drive.
After breakfast, depart for Nairobi arriving in early
afternoon.
