5 Days Luxury Family Safari Across Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli

Our friendly driver-guide will collect your family from Nairobi and assist with luggage before beginning the approximately 260–280-kilometre journey to the Maasai Mara. The transfer normally takes five to six hours, with washroom, meal and stretching stops arranged for children and older relatives. The route passes Great Rift Valley scenery, farms, towns and Maasai countryside. After checking in at your family-friendly luxury lodge and enjoying lunch, you will take an afternoon drive featuring possible elephants, giraffes, zebras, antelopes and lions. The guide will introduce younger travellers to wildlife through simple explanations and identification activities.
