Masai Mara Safari and Mt Longonot Hike plus Hell’s Gate Ride

This is a tour that combines some of the most spectacular parks in Kenya within 4 days. It is intended to allow you to experience the full adventure of each park within a shorter time frame. It has some exceptional experiences such as a bush breakfast and bonfire dinners. This option is particularly inclined to outdoor and active adventurers.
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.
