One of the things I do to help with navigating my calendars is to use the day view. As Pratik says you can set this in the view menu. Once in your calendar view, you can use the left and right arrow keys to move between the days and the tab and shift+tab keys to move between events. F6 and shift+F6 will take you between your different calendars if you have multiple calendars opened. As Pratik says, if you're in your calendar view, shift+F6 will take you to your list of calendars. You can move up and down on this list and press enter on those calendars you want to open or close. F6 will then take you from calendar to calendar. F6 and shift+F6 will also take you to other panes on the screen, such as your ribbon, the list of calendars and so on. I hope this helps.
