    Wonderful Wildlife and Excellent Safari Service

    I had the good fortune to see the Big Five at the Masai Mara - the entire group of lions, elephants and leopards - all up close. In the boat safari in Lake Naivasha the hippo came so close that I was surprised. It is heartening to see thousands of flamingos and white rhinoceros in Lake Nakuru. Guide David was very experienced and patient, always took you to a good place. Accommodation was clean, comfortable and the food was good. Everything was much more than it was worth. Choose this package if you want to go on a safari in Kenya - fully satisfied!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much Whitney for your wonderful review. We’re happy to hear that you enjoyed your safari in Kenya and got to see so much wildlife in the Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, and Lake Nakuru.

    Comfortable and Exciting Safari Trip

    In four days, I visited three different parks - the vast savannahs of Masai Mara, the serene lakes of Naivasha and the bird kingdom of Nakuru. Awesome experience! I got a chance to see the Big Five at the Masai Mara, especially the lion group and the elephant herd. In the boat safari in Lake Naivasha the hippo came so close that I was surprised. Seeing the sea of flamingos and rhinos in Nakuru fills the heart. The guide brother was always helpful, the car was clean and suitable for photography. Accommodation is comfortable, food is fresh and tasty. Everything was more than worth it. If you want to go on a safari in Kenya, you can choose this package - you will definitely be satisfied!

    JusT WOW 😍😍

    This 4-day Masai Mara + Lake Naivasha + Lake Nakuru Safari was truly amazing. Everything was perfect from the first day. To see lions hunting in the vast savannahs of the Masai Mara, herds of elephants and huge herds of zebras - all this will be remembered forever. I was fascinated to see hippos and various birds in the boat ride of Lake Naivasha. The view of the sea of pink flamingos and white rhinoceros in Lake Nakuru is memorable. Guide Bhai was very knowledgeable and always helped us to get a good position for photography. Both the food and service were excellent. In short - it is one of the best choices for safari in Kenya..........

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your 4-day safari through Maasai Mara, Lake Naivasha, and Lake Nakuru. It’s great to know that the wildlife, boat ride, food, and service made your experience memorable.

    Hippos, Flamingos and a Lion Hunt – An Amazing Safari

    The safari was great. On the first day on the boat in Lake Naivasha I had not thought of seeing the hippos so closely. Then I saw the sea of pink flamingos and rhinos in Nakuru. I still remember the moment when I saw a lion hunting in Masai Mara. The guide brother's patience and knowledge were amazing, and the night campfire was also fun. It would have been better if there was a little Dutch touch in the food, but overall I really got value for money. I want to go again!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We’re thrilled that you enjoyed your safari, from the hippos at Lake Naivasha and flamingos and rhinos in Nakuru to the unforgettable lion sighting in the Masai Mara. We’re especially glad you appreciated our guide’s knowledge and patience, as well as the campfire experience. Thank you also for your feedback about the food. We’ll definitely keep that in mind. We’re delighted you felt you received great value for money, and we’d love to welcome you back to Kenya for another adventure.

    Four Days of Big Five and Beautiful Landscapes

    On a 4-day trip to Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru. I've seen all of the Big Five at Masai Mara, especially a Pride of the Lions close-up. I was fascinated by the huge flock of flamingos and rhinos in Lake Nakuru. While going on boat safari in Lake Naivasha I saw a marvellous sight of hippos and birds. Private guide James was very experienced and helpful - every morning he would tell in advance which areas would be good for sightseeing. We stayed at the Luxury Camp - the tents were comfortable, the food was excellent and the service was top class. I also added a hot air balloon ride, which is the highlight of the entire trip. Everything was beautifully organized. I would certainly recommend it!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your wonderful feedback. We are delighted that your 4-day safari in Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Lake Naivasha was so memorable, and that you were able to see the Big Five, including close-up lion encounters, along with flamingos, rhinos, hippos, and diverse birdlife. It’s great to hear that your guide James enhanced your experience with his knowledge and timely advice, and that you enjoyed the comfort, food, and service at the Luxury Camp. We’re especially glad the hot air balloon safari was a highlight of your trip. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you again for another adventure in Kenya.

    4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.

    How much does 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,023 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nairobi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari take?

    +

    Plan for about 96 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nairobi is not rushed.

    Is 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 40 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 96-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari?

    +

    Around 14 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nairobi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nairobi and add a light layer if any part of the 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nairobi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Nairobi?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Nairobi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Wild 5-Day Safari: Magical Mara, Nakuru Wonders & Hell's Gate, 2 Days Amboseli Safari using a 4x4 Landcruiser jeep(with options), Kibera Slum Tour with Lucas. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Nairobi?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Nairobi?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari?

    +

    Included: All park entrance fees and full board accommodation as per the chosen option; Lunch; Dinner; Breakfast; and Transport in a safari-modified vehicle, inclusive of hotel/airport pickup and drop-off. Not included: Optional: Boat ride ($30 p/p), Cultural village visit ($20 p/p). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Nairobi. Be ready about 45 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to 4-Day Masai Mara, L Naivasha and L Nakuru Safari if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Nairobi. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
