9-Day Kenya Cat Scratch Circuit - Kenya…

>> After breakfast from your hotel in Nairobi, pick up with a private 4x4 WD pop-roof land cruiser and transferred to your upscale lodge in the Samburu. You'll arrive in time for lunch, then set out on a long afternoon game drive. Elusive black leopard can be spotted here. On your second day, you'll have the option of a full-day game drive with a packed lunch or split it into morning and afternoon adventures with lunch at the lodge in between. Here in Samburu, you'll have the opportunity to view rare cats such as serval cats, golden cats, African wild cats, and African civet cats, along with wild dogs and several of the “Big Five.” Samburu is also within viewing distance of Mount Kenya, which towers over the horizon as you approach the park. Cheetahs, lions, and leopards frequent Samburu as do elephants, waterbucks, zebras, and countless others.

You will arrive in time for an afternoon game drive on your first day and set out on an all-day game drive on your second day. Alternatively, you can split the game drives between the morning and afternoon with lunch at the lodge spaced between. The thousands of flamingos here create the illusion of pink, moving waters. On the land, you'll also see black rhinos, the endangered Rothschild's giraffes, antelopes, and many more. Your lodge is a luxurious place to unwind after your game drives.

Your home for this segment of the adventure is a tented luxury camp inside the Mara gates. Enjoy any of your picnic lunch at the reserve during an all-day game drive with views of zebras and antelopes! Dinner will be in the camp as the Mara doesn't allow game drives after dark. On your return at the end of an action-packed day, you'll have the chance to look carefully for serval cats running through the brush escaping headlights. On your final day, you will take a trip to the Maasai village where the villagers will give you a tour of their homes, perform ceremonial dances, and invite you to shop their hand-crafted beadwork and carvings.

Inside Mara North, lions, cheetahs, and leopards are known to congregate in greater numbers than inside the neighboring Mara, making this final stop a big cat lover's dream come true.

On this second day in Mara North, your Maasai guide will note any of your special requests and do his best to accommodate special cat sightings—such as lion cubs or leopards having breakfast in a tree. Due to the density of big cats inside Mara North, there's always an awe-inspiring sight to witness. Lunch will be taken on the plains, safe from the big cats. You’ll return to your camp in the afternoon via the Mara, stopping to photograph the majestic landscape from the heights of Mara Lookout Hill along the way.
