Accommodation

Masai Mara Sopa Lodge

Located high on the slopes of the Oloolaimutia Hills, the Maasai Mara Sopa Lodge was one of the first safari lodges to be built in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, a reason why its gardens and trees are so lush and mature. The lodge has 50 guest cottages divided into two wings to either side of the main public areas. Each of these houses has two spacious guest rooms with queen and king size beds, mosquito nets, electronic safes, dressing tables, en-suite bathrooms, and sheltered verandas that all have views over the gardens and the game reserve beyond.

Accommodation level: Mid-range

Nakuru Sopa Lodge

Located on a range of hills that form the western limits of Africa’s Great Rift Valley, the lodge offers spectacular views over the vastness of Africa.

The lodge also overlooks Lake Nakuru and its surrounding national park, one that is a paradise for bird watchers and wildlife lovers alike. Lake Nakuru National Park is mainly a wooded and bushy grassland with a wide ecological diversity and characteristic habitats that range from the lake waters to the escarpment and ridges. The lodge has 60 rooms, including two inter-connecting rooms and two wheelchair accessible rooms.

Accommodation level: Mid-range

Lake Naivasha Sopa Lodge

Set in one hundred and fifty acres of grassland studded with Acacia bushes and trees, the resort is not only home to the resident giraffes, waterbucks, and both Vervet and Colobus monkeys. It is also a night stop for the hippos when they leave the lake every night to come and trim the grass on the expansive lawns. With Sopa’s traditional and conscientious care for the environment, all the buildings have been carefully positioned on the property no trees were cut.

As a result of this, the lodge had to come up with a radically innovative and artistic design for the main public area building which now snakes its way between the trees with long and graceful curves. For this reason, the two swimming pools with a children’s section and a pool complex with its bar, snack kitchen, pizzeria, health spa, tennis court, two conference halls with their four differently sized meeting areas, and stables are so widely set apart.

Other facilities in the lodge include sundowners, a gift shop, board games, outdoor dining, free Wi-Fi, sauna, and wheelchair accessible rooms. Rooms include bedroom kettles, hairdryers, telephones, and a television. The lodge also has adjoining rooms, babysitting services, laundry, and turndown service. Other activities you may want to indulge in at the lodge are fishing, horseriding, birdwatching, and nature walks.

Amboseli Sopa Lodge

Set on 200 acres of private land and with a rustic charm all of its own, the lodge nestles in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro which, at almost six thousand meters, is Africa’s highest and most famous snow-capped mountain.

Amboseli Sopa Lodge is set within mature wooded gardens with a wide variety of trees and plants which include thorn trees, Acacias, fragrant Frangipanis, colorful bougainvillea, and giant cacti which all thrive in these surroundings. The gardens are also home to numerous species of birds, as well as monkeys, mongooses, squirrels, duikers, the occasional gazelle and, once in a while, even an ever inquisitive leopard.

Rustic, well spaced cottages meander through the vast expanse of the mature gardens and house the eighty three guest rooms. These are all brightly decorated with Maasai themed wall murals, and each room has been purposely built to contain either one or two queen sized beds, as well as a veranda.

Dinner and overnight at Mara Sopa Lodge.

Day 2: Masai Mara

Spend the day on a game drive with morning and afternoon game drive with breakfast and lunch at your lodge/camp. You have an option of having a very early morning breakfast and depart with a picnic lunch so as to spend the entire day on the game drive having not to come back to the camp for meals.

Day 3: Masai Mara - Lake Nakuru National Park

Early breakfast thereafter go on a game drive out of the reserve for the drive to Lake Nakuru, arriving in time for lunch. There will be afternoon game drives around the lake where you will have a chance to see thousands of flamingos, rhino, Rothschild giraffe (different from the Masai giraffe at Masai Mara), lion, leopard, and buffalo among other. Dinner and overnight at Lake Nakuru Sopa Lodge.

Day 4: Lake Nakuru National Park - Lake Naivasha

Early game drives in search of more wildlife returning back in time for breakfast. At 10 a.m., depart for the drive to Lake Naivasha arriving in time for lunch. Afternoon, drive to Hell’s Gate National Park which is in the heart of the Rift Valley with hot springs/volcano. Visit the gorge with a nature guide who will give you in-depth history of the volcano. Dinner and overnight at Naivasha Sopa Lodge.

Day 5: Lake Naivasha - Amboseli National Park

Day 6: Amboseli

Early morning, you will have game drives in search of game and this will also be the best chance to see the famous Mt. Kilimanjaro which is just next to the park. Though Mt. Kilimanjaro is in Tanzania, the best place to see it clearly is in Amboseli and you can see more clearly than on the Tanzanian side. You can also decide to have another game drive after breakfast or just relax at the lodge and enjoy the view. You will have an afternoon game drive after lunch. Dinner and overnight at Amboseli Sopa Lodge.

Day 7: Amboseli - Nairobi

Have an early breakfast and depart with a short game drive en-route out of the park for the drive back to Nairobi with a drop-off back at the airport.

Note: This safari combines very well for those who want to extend to Tanzania safari.

Location

Tailoring a tour to coincide with the spectacular wildebeest migration, during July and October, is one such way to ensure your experience gets off to the best possible start. Witnessing a whole host of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelle, crossing the Mara River and fending off crocodiles in the process, is simply a phenomenal sight and certainly not to be missed during peak season.

Elsewhere in Kenya, you’ll discover the Great Rift Valley where volcanic landscapes and hot thermal springs make a visit to the shores of Lake Bogoria another unforgettable highlight. Of course, finding Lake Nakuru fringed by thousands of pink flamingos can really take some beating alongside the chance to spot Africa’s Big Five easing their thirst around the water’s edge.

From views of Kilimanjaro during a couple of nights in Amboseli National Park to organic encounters with local Maasai communities, who’ve lived and worked in Kenya all their life, this is your chance to tailor a tour of Africa in the most exciting and authentic way possible
