Day 1-2

Your Safari Begins – Journey to the Legendary Masai Mara

Your Safari Begins – Journey to the Legendary Masai Mara

Your safari begins with a scenic 5–6 hour drive from Nairobi into the breathtaking landscapes of the Masai Mara National Reserve. Upon arrival at your safari lodge, enjoy a delicious lunch and some time to rest before heading out on your first afternoon game drive. The Mara is one of the most spectacular ecosystems on Earth, and your first encounters may include herds of zebra, elegant giraffes, and even prides of lions stalking through the golden grass.

On your second day, you’ll fully immerse yourself in the rhythm of the savannah with both morning and afternoon game drives. Each safari offers a new perspective — maybe a leopard hidden in the brush or elephants bathing in a stream. Between drives, enjoy relaxing time at your lodge or opt for a Maasai village visit to experience the rich cultural heritage of Kenya’s pastoral people. For those seeking a breathtaking start to the day, a hot air balloon ride over the Mara at sunrise is an unforgettable add-on.

Day 3

From Savannah to Serenity – Walk and Float Among Wildlife at Lake Naivasha

From Savannah to Serenity – Walk and Float Among Wildlife at Lake Naivasha

After breakfast, travel about four hours to Lake Naivasha, a highland lake framed by dramatic escarpments and home to an abundance of wildlife. After settling in at your lodge and enjoying a peaceful lunch, you’ll embark on a walking safari at Crescent Island, one of the few places in Africa where you can walk freely among giraffes, zebras, and antelope.

In the afternoon, glide across the lake on a guided boat safari, passing hippos and spotting vibrant birdlife as the sun dips toward the horizon. The peaceful setting of Naivasha offers a tranquil contrast to the Mara’s raw energy, allowing you to connect with nature in a slower, more personal way.

To the Shadows of Mount Kilimanjaro and Amboseli National Park

Leave Naivasha behind as you head south on a scenic 5-hour drive to Amboseli National Park, known for its large elephant herds and unbeatable views of Mount Kilimanjaro. After check-in and a hearty lunch, embark on an afternoon game drive, where you'll search for lions, buffalo, and graceful gazelles beneath the snow-capped peak of Africa’s tallest mountain.

The following day, immerse yourself fully in Amboseli’s dramatic beauty with morning and afternoon game drives. The open terrain allows for incredible wildlife sightings and breathtaking photos. As the sun rises and sets behind the mountain, every moment in Amboseli feels like a scene from a wildlife documentary — only you’re living it.
