Nairobi to Natural beauty of the Loita Hills

Nairobi to Natural beauty of the Loita Hills

Morning departure from Nairobi as early as 06:00 am (approx. 2-3 hours drive to Loita Plains (Maji Moto Eco Camp) for a morning guided cultural walking safari & bush nature, accompanied by our local Maasai guides.
Immersive Perspective: Walking allows you to experience the sights, sounds, and smells of the bush, offering a different, slower-paced, and more in-depth experience than traditional, vehicle-based safaris. The walk is led by an expert local Masai guide who understands the Loita plains.
Lunch break will be at the Maji Moto Eco Camp, which is a small, environmentally sensitive retreat. Operated by Masai people from the nearby village of Maji Moto, a stay here will immerse you not only in the intense natural beauty of the Loita Hills, but also in the ancient culture and knowledge of the Masai.
Safari is not only about viewing wildlife, but also about visiting different places that make your trip magical and create breathtaking memories.
