   Day 2 — Maasai Mara

   Maasai Mara National Reserve
   After an early breakfast, you'll get the chance to head out on a hot air balloon ride to check out the African Savannah as the sun rises. Then, after a champagne breakfast to top it all off, you'll rejoin the morning's game drive. At midday, we’ll head back to the lodge for lunch and a swim, and then embark on our second game drive this afternoon – in search of Africa's elusive big cats. The Maasai Mara is the setting for one of nature’s greatest phenomena: The Great Migration. If you’re here at the right time of year, you’ll have the chance to witness millions of wildebeest and zebras en route to greener pastures.
   
   Day Highlight:
   *Take a morning Game Drive in the Maasai Mara MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience (INCLUDED EXPERIENCES)——Known for its grassy plains and rolling hills, home to lions, cheetahs, elephants, zebras and hippos, the Maasai Mara is a jewel in Africa’s wildlife crown – don’t miss your chance to explore it at sunrise.

   *Maasai Mara Balloon Safari (Free-time add on)——Rise with the sun as this excursion takes-off at sunrise for a spectacular start to the morning. Wildlife spotting commences immediately as you drift along the Maasai Mara savannah from just a few feet above to ground to high in the sky for glorious views. The flight lasts about 50mins and is followed by a bush breakfast complete with bubbly.

   Day 3 — Maasai Mara - Nairobi

   Maasai Mara National Reserve
   Rise and shine, Kenyan explorers! With the Maasai Mara lodged firmly in our memories (and our hearts), we'll make our way back to Nairobi this morning - where plenty more magic awaits.
   
   Nairobi
   This afternoon we head back to Nairobi, where something truly special awaits us. We'll visit the Kibera Slum to see the incredible work being done by the Mirror of Hope Foundation - working to break the cycle of poverty through education, helping the women and children to improve their quality of life. Afterwards, the afternoon is yours to relax and choose from a variety of hotel restaurants with views of the Nairobi National Park.

   Day 4 — Nairobi - Amboseli

   Nairobi
   Back in Nairobi, we'll have the chance to take a unique game drive in Nairobi National Park. Keep your eyes peeled for waterholes, cityscapes and the elusive white rhino too. We'll also visit the Daphne Sheldrick Elephant rehabilitation centre to watch baby elephants play and bathe in the water (the most beautiful chaotic mess you'll ever encounter), and hear the fascinating story of their road to recovery too.
   
   Amboseli
   After a picnic lunch and a visit to a local Curio shop, we’ll head for our lodge (right on the edge of the Amboseli National Park, might we add, with views of Mt Kilimanjaro too!) to enjoy a delicious included dinner.
   
   Day Highlight:
   *Encounter Wild Rhinos & Rescued Elephants at Nairobi National Park (Free-time add on)——Sprawling grassland with a cityscape in the background? A troop of ostriches gazing up at a plane that flies overhead? This is Nairobi National Park - made special because it's the only major national park located on the outskirts of a capital city. And because it's one of the best spots for viewing the black rhino - plus lions and cheetahs too! A shining example of how nature and humanity can coexist? You ain't seen nothing yet. As part of the tour, we'll also visit the Daphne Sheldrick Elephant rehabilitation centre. We'll hear stories of how the elephants were orphaned and how they will be reintroduced back into the wild whilst we watch on as more than 20 young elephants play together in the water. 
   Please Note: Only US$ in cash can be paid for this excursion.
