About This Safari

Overview


The most comprehensive Kenya safari — 16 days through Ol Pejeta, Samburu, Lakes Nakuru & Naivasha, and 5 days in the Masai Mara.

Sixteen days is the perfect canvas for painting the complete Kenya picture. This comprehensive safari begins in Nairobi with a visit to the elephant orphanage and giraffe centre, then journeys north to Ol Pejeta for armed rhino tracking. Cross into Samburu's ochre landscapes for three nights of desert wildlife encounters before heading south to Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha for water-based safaris. The centrepiece is five full days in the Masai Mara — the longest Mara stay we offer, giving you the best possible chance of witnessing predator hunts, river crossings, and golden-hour photography. Cap the adventure with two restful nights at a Nairobi boutique hotel, reflecting on the journey over rooftop cocktails. Includes all internal flights, luxury lodges, and a dedicated guide from start to finish.
