Tour Highlights
Day By Day Information
Day 1 — Nairobi → Mara North Conservancy
Depart Nairobi and travel to the Maasai Mara region. On arrival, check in at your luxury camp in Mara North Conservancy. After lunch and some time to settle in, head out for your first afternoon game drive through the conservancy.
Mara North is a large private wilderness area forming part of the Greater Mara ecosystem, with abundant wildlife and a more exclusive safari environment than the main reserve. Return to camp as the sun sets over the Mara landscape.
Day 2 — Full-Day Maasai Mara Game Drive
After breakfast, leave Mara North for a full-day game drive in the Maasai Mara National Reserve. Spend the day exploring the reserve’s expansive grasslands in search of lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards, cheetahs and other wildlife.
A picnic lunch can be enjoyed in the reserve, allowing you to make the most of the day before returning to camp in the late afternoon.
Day 3 — Maasai Mara → Lake Elementaita & Soysambu Conservancy
Depart the Mara after breakfast and travel towards the Great Rift Valley. Continue to Lake Elementaita, arriving at your accommodation in the Soysambu area.
Later, explore the shores of Lake Elementaita and Soysambu Conservancy, taking in the changing scenery and birdlife of this important Rift Valley ecosystem.
Day 4 — Lake Nakuru National Park
Spend the day exploring Lake Nakuru National Park, one of Kenya’s important rhino conservation areas.
Game drives take you through the park’s varied habitats in search of black and white rhinos, lions, leopards, buffalo, giraffes and other wildlife. The lake and surrounding woodland and grassland also provide opportunities to see a variety of bird species.
Return to your accommodation in the evening.
Day 5 — Soysambu → Ol Pejeta Conservancy
Leave Soysambu and travel north towards Laikipia and Ol Pejeta Conservancy.
On arrival, check in to your camp, beautifully situated along the Ewaso Ng’iro River. After lunch, head out for an afternoon game drive through the conservancy.
As evening approaches, return to camp and enjoy dinner overlooking the riverbed, where wildlife may gather as animals move through the area.
Day 6 — Ol Pejeta → Samburu
Begin the morning with a short game drive in Ol Pejeta, allowing you a final opportunity to explore the conservancy before departing for Samburu.
Continue north through Kenya’s changing landscapes towards Samburu National Reserve. Arrive later in the day and check in to your luxury accommodation inside the reserve. Enjoy a relaxed evening surrounded by the distinctive scenery of northern Kenya.
Day 7 — Full-Day Samburu National Reserve
Spend the entire day exploring Samburu National Reserve on game drives. The reserve’s rugged landscape, riverine forests and open plains provide a completely different safari experience from the Mara and Rift Valley. Look for elephants, lions, leopards, giraffes, buffalo and Samburu’s distinctive northern wildlife, including species adapted to the region’s drier environment.
Return to camp in the evening for dinner and your final night in the wilderness.
Day 8 — Samburu → Nairobi
Enjoy breakfast at the camp before beginning the journey back to Nairobi.
Travel south through the changing landscapes of central Kenya, arriving in Nairobi in the afternoon, marking the end of your 8-day Kenya luxury safari.
