Itinerary

Day 1: Arrive at the Nairobi

Upon arrival in Nairobi, Kenya, your host will be on hand at the Jomo Kenyatta International airport to welcome you with a warm smile, assist and escort you to Ole Sereni Hotel. As ‘The City Hotel by the Game Park’, Ole Sereni combines the best features of a modern city hotel and a traditional wildlife lodge to present guests with a cocktail of breathtaking fundamentals of nature’s tranquility from a very close range.

Drive to Amboseli National Park

Amboseli

After breakfast, drive to Amboseli National Park, considered the prime location in the world for viewing wild elephants. Nothing can beat the site of these magnificent creatures with Mount Kilimanjaro as their backdrop. The mountain is the world’s highest free-standing mountain and its majesty will take your breath away. You’ll know this is a real safari as you travel over the rugged roads to the park and later on your afternoon game drive.

The day starts with breakfast and a morning game drive. Amazingly, the sites you see in the morning will be quite different from those you’ll see in the afternoon game drive as the various creatures respond to their unique biological clocks. Depending on the time of year, the terrain will vary – from Ernest Hemingway’s “Snows of Kilimanjaro” to the hot dry summer to the life-giving rainy season – but it will always be beautiful.

Drive to Ol Pejeta Conservancy

After breakfast, it’s time to head to the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, situated between the foot hills of the Aberdare and the magnificent snow-capped peaks of Mount Kenya. The 90,000-acre private wilderness boasts an astounding variety of wildlife, including all the members of the ‘Big Five' (the endangered black and white rhino, leopard, elephant, buffalo and lion). Offering one of the highest wildlife densities in Kenya and a higher wildlife to acre ratio than any Kenyan national park

Transfer to Lake Nakuru

Lake Nakuru

After breakfast this morning, it will be time to head out to Lake Nakuru National Park. The park serves as Kenya’s first rhino sanctuary and is home to both white and black species. Protection is also offered to rare Rothschild giraffes – a 188-km area around the lake is fenced off to protect them. You’ll also be able to explore the beautiful Malaika Waterfall and, of course, Lake Nakuru. This is the true “Out of Africa” experience as tonight you’ll stay at Sarova Lion Hill

Transfer to the amazing Masai Mara

Masai Mara

When those of us in the west hear the term “African Safari” the picture that comes to mind is the Maasai Mara Reserve, which is where you are going today. Here is where you’ll find the grasslands, the lions, the jackals, the wildebeests and more. This will also be your opportunity to get to know the Maasai, the semi-nomadic natives of Kenya. These cattle-herding people have managed to preserve their way of life through the centuries; visiting them is an enriching experience.

Masai Mara

You will be glad to have a second day to explore the Masai Mara Reserve. Today you’ll have both a morning and an afternoon game drive. It is an unforgettable experience that is not to be missed. You will learn about the Masai way of life and how they have managed to retain their semi-nomadic customs even in today’s modern world. After all these adventures, you will be more than ready for a mid-day nap, take a dip in the pool or laze on the veranda to escape the heat of the day.

Transfer to Nairobi by road

Masai Mara

A day that seemed a long way off has come much too soon. Business, work and home await and it is time to return to that other world and bid your travel companions goodbye. In the morning, if time allows, enjoy a final predawn game drive followed by a leisurely breakfast. Later we depart by road for Nairobi. A farewell dinner awaits you before you depart. In the evening we transfer to the airport for your outbound flight home, carrying a lifetime of memories from your African Safari with you.
