Itinerary

Nairobi Nairobi

We begin at our hotel in Nairobi. There is a welcome briefing today, which provides more information about our wildlife-watching adventure. Additionally, the Nextgen shopping mall is next door, which has a money exchange store and ATMs should you wish to exchange or withdraw money.

Typically, our groups enjoy dinner together tonight, a chance to get to know each other.

Accommodation: Eka Hotel (or similar)

After breakfast, we transfer (4hr 30min) to Amboseli National Park with comfort stops along the way. Our journey takes us via the Athi-Kapiti plains. At the town of Sultan Hamud, we leave the paved road and turn south towards Amboseli. If the weather is clear, we should get good views of the Chyulu Hills to our left and Mount Kilimanjaro in front. We should also start to see many types of antelope, zebra and possibly giraffes. Also look out for the Maasai in their red shuka robes herding cattle and goats on the dusty plains.

We have lunch on arrival at the lodge, then a little time to relax and explore the grounds, before an afternoon game drive. Amboseli is known as the home of the African elephant, but is also populated by leopards, cheetahs, giraffes, lions and crocodiles, plus more than 600 bird species. The setting is spectacular too with several different habitats, including the dried-out Lake Amboseli and savannah, plus Mount Kilimanjaro in the distance.

After our exploration, we return to the lodge, where you can head to Hemingway’s Bar for uninterrupted views of the tallest mountain in Africa and a chance to reminisce on our first safari together.

Accommodation: Amboseli Sopa Lodge (or similar)

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Our wildlife-watching adventure in Amboseli continues today with two game drives, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. A second day in the park gives us time to explore areas not visited yesterday. We have lunch at a special site called Rocky Hill, which is run exclusively for guests of Amboseli Sopa Lodge. A second day here also significantly increases your chances of seeing some of the iconic animals.

Accommodation: Amboseli Sopa Lodge (or similar)

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Bid farewell to Amboseli after breakfast and transfer to Lake Naivasha. After four hours or so, we stop at the Carnivore Restaurant in Nairobi for lunch, where the chefs roast meats on traditional Maasai swords over a grand charcoal pit.

Once you’ve had your fill, we transfer (two hours) to Lake Naivasha Sopa Lodge, arriving around 5pm. Enjoy an evening stroll along the lakeshore gardens before sundown and dinner.

Accommodation: Lake Naivasha Sopa Resort (or similar)

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Rise early for breakfast, then transfer to the lake for a one-hour boat safari. If we’re lucky, we will spot the resident hippo population, plus the majestic African fish eagle swooping from the trees. The safari adventure continues after, as we transfer (1hr 30min) to Lake Nakuru National Park, where we embark on a game drive upon arrival. The wildlife here is plentiful, including rhinos, hippos, giraffes, buffalo and abundant birdlife. We have lunch at our lodge for tonight, followed by another game drive, allowing us to further explore this haven for wildlife.

Accommodation: Lake Nakuru Sopa Lodge (or similar)

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Transfer (four hours) to the Masai Mara National Reserve after breakfast, regarded by many as Africa’s finest game park.

After lunch at our lodge, we embark on our first game drive across the savannah, looking out for the abundant wildlife, which includes lions, elephants, rhinos, leopards and buffalo.

Accommodation: Masai Mara Sopa Lodge (or similar)

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

We head back into the Masai Mara today, enjoying two game drives, one in the morning and another in the afternoon. Our second day lets us explore different sections of the park.

On one game drive, we also visit a Maasai village for a glimpse into the life of this famous tribe. During the experience, we meet a village elder and are introduced to the rest of the villagers. We can also see traditional dwellings, watch cultural demonstrations and participate in an adumu, where dancers jump several feet high. You can also purchase traditional crafts.

In the evening, we gather for one final dinner, an excellent chance to reminisce about our adventures together.

Accommodation: Masai Mara Sopa Lodge (or similar)

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Bid the Masai Mara farewell after breakfast. We then transfer (4hr 45min) to the airport for your onward flight, enjoying good views of the Rift Valley Escarpment on the way back. If you’d like to stay in Nairobi a little longer, speak to your sales representative to book extra nights.

Meals included: Breakfast

Vaccinations and Health

Kenya

There are no required vaccinations. However, recommended vaccinations include hepatitis A, polio, tetanus, typhoid, cholera, hepatitis B, meningococcal disease, rabies, tuberculosis and yellow fever. You will also need a yellow fever vaccination certificate if arriving from a country with risk of yellow fever transmission. Please confirm with your doctor or travel clinic.

Malaria prophylaxis is essential and we suggest you seek advice from your doctor or travel clinic about which to take. Additionally, dengue fever, a tropical viral disease spread by daytime biting mosquitoes, is a known risk in places visited. There is currently no vaccine or prophylaxis available, so take the usual precautions to avoid mosquito bites.

Visa

Kenya

Travellers from the UK, US and EU need an electronic travel authorisation (eTA) to enter Kenya. Please note, requirements often change and it is your responsibility to obtain any required eTAs/visas for this trip. Therefore, we recommend you check with the nearest embassy or consulate of your chosen destination(s), including any countries you may be transiting or transferring through.

Some local governments provide guidance on entry requirements for their citizens. To help, we’ve gathered a selection of useful links below.

Australia: www.smartraveller.gov.au/destinations/africa/kenya
Canada: www.travel.gc.ca/destinations/kenya
United Kingdom: www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/kenya/entry-requirements
USA: www.travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/International-Travel-Country-Information-Pages/Kenya.html

You can apply for your eTA, which costs US$30, on the official website for the Kenyan government. You will need the following before you make your application:

Valid passport
Recent passport picture OR a selfie picture taken during application process
Contact details (home address, telephone, email)
Travel information and flight itinerary (arrival flight number, date of departure of initial flight in case of connecting flights)
Proof of booking for the hotel you will be staying at (if staying with friends, a letter of invitation is accepted)
Yellow fever vaccination certificate if coming from endemic countries (please check the World Health Organization website for the updated list of countries)

Food & Drink

All breakfasts, six lunches and six dinners are included. The provided meals are buffets, with a variety of continental, Indian and Kenyan dishes. Vegetarian and vegan diets can be catered for − please let us know in advance.

Purified water is provided by the tour leader throughout your trip from large drums carried in the vehicles. A metal flask, which you can keep, is provided; alternatively, you can bring your own reusable water bottle.

Weather

Kenya straddles the equator, so showers can occur at any time of year; however, the wettest period is April and May. Due to the altitude of both Nakuru (5,250ft/1,600m) and the Masai Mara (5,085ft/1,550m), the night-time temperature is beautiful, cool yet not cold. Daytime temperatures can get as high as 30C (86F) but with low humidity. There can be light rains at the end of the year, which cuts down the dust and brings out the colours. In the wet, the roads can become difficult, and a little patience may be required. Please be aware, in recent years weather patterns have changed and are now somewhat unpredictable.

GRACE THORNTON

Reviewed July 2025

Pinch me bucket list moment!

Kenya’s week-long safari adventure was an unforgettable journey, taking us from the breathtaking elephant herds of Amboseli National Park beneath Mount Kilimanjaro, to serene early-morning boat rides among hippos on Lake Naivasha, and the vibrant birdlife of Lake Nakuru, where hundreds of species filled the skies. It concluded with the wildlife-rich plains of the Masai Mara, where we encountered lions, rhinos, giraffes, and zebras in their natural habitat. Each moment was seamlessly organised, our guides were expert in all areas, covering topics on not only the animals in the parks, but welcoming us into the essence and culture of Kenya as a country, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in all that Kenya had to offer – it’s beauty and wildlife while experiencing the peace and wonder of Africa’s landscapes—a truly inspiring and transformative adventure.

Most Inspirational Moment

A sunrise hot air balloon ride over the masai mara, seeing the game reserve below from a different perspective, watching animals dash across beneath us while relishing in the beautiful warm sunrise

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our group leader was truly magnificent. He was totally immersed in everything to do with wildlife. He had been an ecologist and studied many different animals over a 25 year career, with his current studies into butterflies. Knowledgeable about his country, politics, farming, animals, populations and history. He made us feel safe and secure throughout the week, with the customer and animal safety at the forefront of everything he did.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Kenya accepts USD and KES and the conversion rate is best with KES so try and pay with KES where you can. Some of the optional extras (Masai Mara village visit and hot air balloon ride) and require USD but for all other things, KES is the currency to pay with. Also ensure you have a camera with a great zoom lens and a decent pair of binoculars to really take in, close up, all that Kenya and it's wildlife has to offer
