Day 1: Nairobi
Transfer from Nairobi Airport to the capital’s most iconic luxury
boutique hotel, Giraffe Manor. The hotel is widely famous for its herd
of resident Rothschild Giraffe that frequently peek their heads into the
windows to share your snacks. This is the only place in the world where
you share your breakfast with a giraffe from your breakfast table or
bedroom window. Get a peaceful night’s rest before setting off on your
safari tomorrow. Day 1: Nairobi – Lake Elementaita
On arrival at Nairobi Airport, head towards Lake Elementaita which is
just an hours drive. Enjoy a three night stay at Sunbird Lodge.
Day 2: Nairobi – Samburu
After breakfast, fly to Samburu National Park. Enjoy a short game drive
en-route to Larsen’s Camp. Larsen’s Camp is made up of just 20 tented
and intimate luxury suites, nestled discreetly among the trees. Samburu
has stunning landscapes and several species that cannot be spotted in
other parks of Kenya.
Day 3: Samburu National Reserve
Make sure to rise early in order to make it out onto the plains before the
park comes to life. Return to camp for a lavish breakfast before taking a
refreshing dip in the pool, a guided walk or a siesta before heading out
on an afternoon game drive. In the evening enjoy a nightcap around a
warm blazing fire.
Day 4: Samburu – Masai Mara
Fly south towards the world renowned Masai Mara Game Reserve.
Arrive at Little Governor’s Camp in time for lunch. The intimate camp
is teeming with game and birdlife. Venture out on your first Mara game
drive before returning to the lodge in time for dinner.
Days 5-6: Masai Mara
Spend two exhilarating days exploring the Masai Mara. Take a hot air
balloon flight and see Kenya from above (additional cost). Rise before
the sun for a chance to watch the great Masai Mara and its abundant
wildlife begin their day, perhaps visit the local Masai village; this is a
great way to explore their culture and learn the Masai way of life.
Day 7: Nairobi
After a morning game drive, your Kenyan safari comes to an end once
you’ve returned to Nairobi.
Day 2: Lake Nakuru National Park
Enjoy a full day visiting the nearby Lake Nakuru National Park which is

them graze along the lakes shores with their young in tow! If you are
lucky you may even spot a leopard relaxing in a tree beside the lake.
Day 3: Hell’s Gate National Park
Another full day of exploring will offer amazing walking or mountain
biking experiences alongside giraffe, eland and other varieties of game.
Hell’s Gate National Park is renowned for its open grassy plains and
towering cliffs, making for a day of brilliant landscapes.
Days 4-5: Samburu National Park
Drive to your next accommodation, Elephant Bedroom Camp, for a two
night stay in Samburu National Park. This area is well known for its rare
species along with an abundance of other wildlife. You may also see the
red–robed Samburu tribesmen bringing their cattle to the river to drink.
