Overview

Kenya is the only place in Africa where you can watch a lion-kill in the morning, then drift over coral reefs in a glass-bottomed boat off tropical Mombasa in the afternoon. Or, you can wander back in time through the Islamic island of Lamu... buy sisal baskets, semi-precious stones, beadwork, ebony Makonde and soapstone carvings in one of the hundreds of market places.

Take off on an elegant balloon safari over the Masai Mara, visit the nomadic, ochre-clad Maasai, gaze at the breathtaking views of snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro or watch pink flamingoes rise over the Rift Valley soda lakes.

Be one of the few who witness the mid-year spectacle of over two million herbivores thundering through the Serengeti to the sweet grass of the unfenced Masai Mara, the richest wildlife sanctuary in the country.

This 9-day safari takes you to the best sites in Kenya: Nairobi (two nights), Samburu National Reserve (two nights), lake nakuru (1 night), Ol Pejeta and Masai Mara (two nights). All of our tours are customizable and we can increase or decrease the number of days, mix accommodation levels, and more.
