Classic Kenya Safari by Air

Safari summary

This unforgettable Kenya safari combines the thrill of wildlife spotting with the ease and beauty of fly-in travel. Starting in Nairobi, you'll take a scenic flight to Amboseli National Park, where massive herds of elephants roam beneath the towering backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro. After two days of game drives and soaking in the stunning landscapes, you'll board another flight—this time to the world-famous Masai Mara, Kenya’s top wildlife destination and home to the Big Five.

In the Mara, you’ll spend three days exploring its rolling plains, teeming with lions, elephants, buffalo, and more. You can also add an optional hot air balloon safari for a sunrise view like no other. From Masai Mara, you'll travel by road to Lake Nakuru, known for its pink flamingos and rhino sanctuary. After a night here, continue to the peaceful shores of Lake Naivasha. Enjoy a relaxing boat ride or guided nature walk before heading back to Nairobi.

Throughout your journey, you'll travel in a 4x4 Land Cruiser with a pop-up roof for all road transfers and game drives, led by an experienced safari guide. Accommodations include Kilima Safari Camp in Amboseli, Mara Sopa Lodge in Masai Mara, Buraha Zenoni in Nakuru, and Kongoni Lodge in Naivasha—each chosen for comfort and proximity to nature.

This safari is ideal for travelers looking to see Kenya’s iconic parks without long road journeys between distant regions. It blends luxury, convenience, and authentic wildlife experiences, making it perfect for first-time visitors, families, couples, or wildlife lovers looking to tick off the best of Kenya in one trip.

Whether you're standing face-to-face with an elephant in Amboseli, watching a lion stalk the plains in the Mara, or cruising past hippos on Lake Naivasha, this journey delivers lifelong memories.

Optional activities like a hot air balloon safari ($450) and Naivasha boat ride ($30) can be added for a more customized experience. Park fees, domestic flights, accommodation, meals, and game drives are all included. International flights, visa fees, and tips are not.
