Introduction

9-Day Spectacular Kenya Safari: Start your safari on the Laikipia plateau in the shadows of Mount Kenya, learn first-hand how Kenya’s conservancies blend tourism, conservation and communities in a sustainable way, then fly to the rich grasslands of the Masai Mara. This luxurious and off-the-beaten track experience includes Borana and Namunyak Conservancies as well as the Mara.

  • Availability: 1 June – 31 May 
  • Duration: 9 days 
  • Locations: Kenya – Laikipia Plateau, Samburu National Reserve, Masai Mara National Park and Conservancies
  • Start: Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, Kenya

Kenya is a land of contrasts, where ancient traditions meet modern innovations and diverse ecosystems coexist harmoniously. On this unforgettable safari, you will explore Kenya’s iconic Laikipia plateau and the Masai Mara. 

You will encounter rare and endangered wildlife in Laikipia, such as rhino, elephant, and the long-necked graceful gerenuk antelope. You will also learn how local communities work with conservationists to protect these precious animals and their habitats. The majestic Mount Kenya, Africa’s second-highest peak, makes a dramatic backdrop to your safari here. Continuing north, the stunning landscape and diverse wildlife offering of Samburu National Reserve await, providing an immersive blend of culture and wilderness.

From Samburu, you will fly to the Masai Mara, a vast savannah teeming with life. You will see prides of lion, elephant herds, cheetah, leopard, and more. If you’re travelling between July and September, you might be lucky enough to witness the Great Migration. This natural phenomenon occurs as a year-round cycle between the Masai Mara and Serengeti when millions of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle cross the Mara River in search of greener pastures. This is one of the most spectacular sights in the natural world and a thrilling experience for any wildlife lover. 

You will stay in hand-picked boutique camps throughout your safari, offering comfort, warm and genuine service, and authenticity. You will be guided by expert and passionate guides who share their knowledge and stories with you. Spend your days discovering the incredible wildlife whilst learning about the fascinating culture and traditions of the local communities. 

This is more than just a safari. This is a journey of discovery, adventure, and inspiration. This is the wild wonder of Kenya.
