Soaring mountain ranges give way to plummeting valleys as streams cascade over waterfalls, making Aberdares National Park a landscape lovers paradise. With over 250 species of bird, it is also a haven for bird watching enthusiasts.

Located in the heart of Aberdares National Park, The Ark is known as a "tree hotel", built on pylons in such a way as not to disturb the animals around the waterhole. Its three decks provide superb vantage points for game viewing around the floodlit waterhole.

This unique wildlife sanctuary is just a few kilometers from Nairobi's bustling city center. Despite its proximity over 50 species of mammals can be found there, including four of the "Big Five". The park is one of Kenya's most successful rhino sanctuaries and sightings of Black Rhino are almost guaranteed.

The park has a rich and diverse range of birdlife with 400 species recorded, however all species are not always present and some are seasonal.

Your tour also includes a visit to the animal orphanage. Located inside the National Park, the orphanage is home to wounded or orphaned animals which are nurtured back to health. You can expect to see lions, leopards, cheetahs, warthogs, cranes, antelopes, baboons and more.

The famous images of millions of pink flamingos congregating on the surface of a soda lake is a familiar one at Lake Nakuru. It is here they gather in huge numbers to feed on the algae, making for a wildlife photographers dream come true.

Yet there is more to Lake Nakuru than these bizarre looking birds. There is plenty of game to be spotted and the park is one of the best places in Africa to see the elusive Leopard.

An abundance of wildlife is on offer at Maasai Mara Game Reserve ranging from the smallest of insects and reptiles, to the largest mammal walking the earth. Have your camera ready at all times on this three day trip as there are surprises lurking behind every tree and under every rock.

Spend two nights in the famous reserve allowing you plenty of time to start ticking off the "Big Five" (Buffalo, Elephant, Leopard, Lion and Rhinoceros) or even the "Big Nine" (Cheetah, Zebra, Giraffe and Hippo). If wildlife is what you came to Kenya for, look no further.
