Safari in 3 parks: Masai Mara with cycling at Hells Gate and hiking Mt Longonot
We're sorry. This tour is no longer available.
Overview
This is a tour that combines 3 of the most spectacular parks in Kenya within 4 days. It is intended to allow you to experience the full adventure of each park quickly. It has some exceptional experiences such as bonfire dinners and picnic lunches in the parks.
All the parks are different and allow you to connect with nature. You will love Hells Gate National park!
The Mt Longonot option is particularly inclined to outdoor and active adventurers (moderate hike). However our Lake Nakuru NP option of the same safari, substitutes the Mt Longonot hike with a scenic drive in the Lake Nakuru National Park where we will find rhinos and a waterfall and thus is more relaxed and less active.
The accommodation is carefully thought out and is in exquisite tented camps/lodges. Camp Carnelley's is on the shores of Lake Naivasha with perfect sundowner views and AA Lodge Masai Mara has a swimming pool and is within Masai Mara, you will occasionally have a few visitors like giraffes.

The tour package included park entry fees, accomodation (the tents at Maasai Mara were so comfortable), food (and booze!) and transport at a super affordable price. Our tour guides were very considerate, had great knowledge, fun to hang out with and the the driver did an awesome job of driving us safely around the parks. The trip to Hell's Gate included a bike rental and I would recommend eyeryone to visit the park by doing so. At Maasai Mara and Mara River we had tons of fun spotting wildlife. Our tour guide even took pictures of us and shared them. So all in all, I can really recommend joining them for the trip as I had a blast!kenzyelgenidy

Amazing experience and very nice place. We had the chance to see a lot of animals, and the stay at the camp was amazing, including the camp fires.
