Day by day

Itinerary

1
Jambo (Hello) Nairobi
Your small group safari begins in Nairobi, Kenya’s capital and the gateway to the country’s renowned national parks and wildlife reserves. On arrival, a Trafalgar Representative will meet you at the airport and escort you to your hotel. This evening, meet your fellow travellers and Driver Guide over dinner at the renowned Carnivore restaurant as your Kenya safari gets underway.
2
Journey to Aberdare National Park
Leave the hustle and bustle of Nairobi behind and embark on a 4 x 4 journey north to Aberdare National Park. En route you'll Connect With Locals during a Be My Guest experience in the highlands of central Kenya. Join Elizabeth to learn about the complete journey of coffee and tea production before settling in to savour local cuisine including a sample of local tea and coffee made from the onsite coffee and and tea plantation. Tonight you’ll stay in The Ark Lodge, one of Trafalgar's Stays With Stories, offering spectacular opportunities to view the resident birdlife and wildlife.
3
On to Samburu National Reserve
Leave the lush greenery of the Kenya highlands region behind as you journey to the contrasting arid landscapes of Samburu National Reserve. As you continue your safari adventure here, you'll have the chance to spot the 'Samburu Special 5', including species such as the grevy's zebra and the reticulated giraffe, found only in the northern Kenya region. Your accommodation tonight is a luxury tented camp on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River.
4
Safari in Samburu National Reserve
Made famous in the award-winning book and movie Born Free, Samburu National Reserve was the home of Elsa, the famous lioness, raised by conservationists George and Joy Adamson. Rise early with the birds and head out on a guided nature walk along the edge of the reserve, where a local ranger introduces you to the region’s flora, fauna and river life. Then embark on a morning game drive through acacia forest and open grasslands in search of wildlife. Relax at your camp on your return, then head back out into the savannah on a late afternoon game drive.
5
Off to Ol Pejeta Conservancy
The plight of Africa’s rhinos takes centre stage today during a poignant visit to Ol Pejeta Conservancy, a MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience. This morning, you’ll learn about their efforts to fight poaching in East Africa’s largest black rhino sanctuary and enjoy a quick photo stop at the point where the equator slices through the conservancy. Next up is a visit to Sweetwaters Sanctuary, where you'll meet the cheeky resident orphaned or rescued chimpanzees. Continue to your accommodation this evening, keeping a keen eye out for thirsty wildlife that come to drink at the floodlit on-site waterhole after a dry day in the African wilderness.
6
Onwards to Lake Nakuru National Park
Have your camera ready for a photo stop at the spectacular Thomson's Falls. Visit the birdwatcher's paradise that is Lake Nakuru National Park, then join your Driver Guide for an afternoon game drive to spot pink flamingos lining the lakeshore and to search for lions and leopards.
7
Continue to the Maasai Mara National Reserve
Your journey continues to the world-renowned Maasai Mara National Reserve, your home for the next two nights. While here, visit your lodge’s watering hole, where large pods of hippo can often be seen.
8
A Day to Discover the Maasai Mara
Don your hat and polish those binoculars for a full day in the Maasai Mara's wilderness. When you’re not traversing the savannah in search of the Big 5, you’ll join a Maasai community in their local village. Watch the colourfully clad warriors demonstrate their jumping prowess, learn traditional bush hunting skills, and tour the village for a deeper understanding into their daily life. Back at the lodge enjoy a hearty lunch before you set out on an afternoon game drive to soak in more of the iconic Maasai Mara landscape and nature.
9
Admire the Maasai Mara and Return to Nairobi
As your Kenyan safari adventure comes to an end, you’ll return to Nairobi with your small group, where a day room has been reserved at the Four Points by Sheraton Nairobi Airport Hotel for you to use prior to your evening flight home (onward flights should not be booked to depart until after 5 pm). Please Note: The full duration of this itinerary is operated by a 4x4 safari vehicle, including all road travel and safari game drives. The trip will travel over a variety of terrains, resulting in some rough and bumpy journeys.
