The Classic Kenya Safari

Elephants, Rhinos, Big Cats & Extraordinary Landscapes

 

This seven-day private Kenya safari combines three remarkably different wildlife destinations while giving you enough time to experience Amboseli and Maasai Mara without rushing.

Begin with two nights in Amboseli National Park, where large elephant herds roam across open plains beneath the towering presence of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Continue north through Kenya toward the Great Rift Valley and Lake Nakuru National Park, an important sanctuary for black and white rhinos and a rewarding destination for birdlife.

The final three nights are devoted to Maasai Mara, giving you two complete days to search for lions, leopards, cheetahs and the immense variety of plains game associated with this world-famous ecosystem.

Throughout the journey, you travel exclusively with your own party in a private 4x4 Safari Land Cruiser accompanied by a professional driver-guide.

Two nights in Amboseli and three nights in Maasai Mara make this a more relaxed and wildlife-focused alternative to a fast-moving seven-day circuit.

Day 01

Nairobi → Amboseli National Park

Southern Kenya · Elephants · Mount Kilimanjaro

Your private Kenya safari begins with collection from your Nairobi hotel, residence or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport according to your confirmed arrangements.

Meet your professional driver-guide and depart Nairobi in your exclusive 4x4 Safari Land Cruiser, travelling south toward Amboseli National Park.

As you approach the Amboseli ecosystem, the landscape becomes increasingly open, with expansive plains stretching toward the Kenya-Tanzania border.

Arrive at your selected lodge or tented camp for check-in and lunch according to your confirmed arrival schedule.

Later in the afternoon, depart on your first Amboseli game drive. Search for elephants, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, antelopes and predators across the park's plains and wetland habitats.

When weather conditions are favourable, Mount Kilimanjaro provides one of Africa's most dramatic safari backdrops.

Return to your lodge or camp for dinner and your first overnight in Amboseli.

Day 1: Lunch and dinner according to your confirmed package. First overnight in Amboseli.
Day 02

Full-Day Amboseli Safari

Elephant Country · Wetlands · Kilimanjaro Views

Begin the day early, when the cooler morning temperatures can provide excellent wildlife activity and clear conditions may reveal Mount Kilimanjaro beyond the plains.

Spend the day exploring Amboseli with your private driver-guide. The park is internationally celebrated for its elephants, including large family groups that move between the open plains and permanent wetlands.

Search for lions, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, hyenas, jackals, warthogs and numerous antelope species.

Amboseli's wetlands, fed by underground water originating from the Kilimanjaro region, create productive wildlife habitats within an otherwise relatively dry landscape.

Depending on your preferred safari rhythm, enjoy morning and afternoon game drives with a break at your lodge or spend an extended period inside the park.

Your private vehicle gives you flexibility to concentrate on the wildlife and photography opportunities that interest you most.

Return to your lodge or camp for dinner and your second overnight in Amboseli.

Day 2: Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Second overnight in Amboseli.
Day 03

Amboseli → Lake Nakuru

Southern Kenya · Great Rift Valley · Rhino Country

After breakfast, leave Amboseli and begin the journey north toward Kenya's Great Rift Valley.

Depending on your confirmed schedule, your departure may include additional wildlife viewing as you leave the Amboseli ecosystem.

Continue toward Lake Nakuru, travelling through changing landscapes from the open plains of southern Kenya into the highlands and Rift Valley region.

Lake Nakuru National Park is particularly renowned for its rhino conservation programme and supports both black and white rhinos.

Depending on arrival time and your confirmed programme, enjoy a game drive in search of rhinos, buffalo, Rothschild's giraffes, zebras, waterbuck, baboons and other wildlife.

The lake and surrounding habitats also support rich birdlife. Flamingos may occur around the lake, although their numbers vary naturally according to water levels and ecological conditions.

Proceed to your selected lodge or camp for dinner and overnight in the Lake Nakuru area.

Day 3: Breakfast, lunch and dinner according to your confirmed package. Overnight in the Lake Nakuru area.
Day 04

Lake Nakuru → Maasai Mara National Reserve

Great Rift Valley · Maasai Country · Afternoon Game Drive

Enjoy breakfast before leaving the Lake Nakuru region and continuing through the Great Rift Valley toward Maasai Mara.

As you travel toward southwestern Kenya, the landscape gradually opens into rolling grasslands and pastoral country associated with the greater Mara ecosystem.

Arrive at your selected Maasai Mara lodge or tented camp for check-in and lunch according to your confirmed schedule.

Later, depart on your first Maasai Mara game drive.

Search for elephants, buffalo, giraffes, wildebeest, zebras, warthogs and numerous antelope species while keeping watch for the reserve's famous predators.

Maasai Mara is especially renowned for lions, cheetahs and leopards, although all wildlife sightings remain entirely natural.

Return to your lodge or camp for dinner and your first overnight in Maasai Mara.

Day 4: Breakfast, lunch and dinner. First overnight in Maasai Mara.
Day 05

Full-Day Maasai Mara Safari

Big Cats · Savannah Wildlife · Great Migration Ecosystem

After breakfast, devote the day to exploring Maasai Mara with your private professional driver-guide.

With no major road transfer today, you can spend substantially more time following wildlife movements and exploring different parts of the reserve.

Search for lions, leopards and cheetahs alongside elephants, buffalo, giraffes, hyenas, wildebeest, zebras and numerous antelope species.

Your driver-guide will use current wildlife activity and local knowledge to determine the most productive areas to explore.

During the seasonal Great Migration, large herds of wildebeest and zebras may be present within the greater Mara ecosystem.

Migration movements depend on rainfall, grazing conditions and other natural factors. Mara River crossings are spontaneous wildlife events and cannot be scheduled or guaranteed.

Depending on your confirmed programme, enjoy a picnic lunch inside the reserve or return to your lodge before continuing with afternoon game viewing.

Return for dinner and your second overnight in Maasai Mara.

Day 5: Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Second overnight in Maasai Mara.
Day 06

Second Full Day in Maasai Mara

Extended Game Viewing · Mara River · Optional Balloon Safari

Your third night in Maasai Mara provides another complete day devoted to wildlife viewing without the pressure of travelling to another destination.

An early start can be particularly rewarding as predators may still be active and the morning light creates excellent photographic conditions across the grasslands.

Your driver-guide can return to areas where interesting wildlife activity was observed previously or explore different sections of the reserve.

Depending on current conditions, the day's game viewing may include open grasslands, riverine woodland and areas around the Mara River.

Continue searching for the Mara's predators as well as elephants, buffalo, giraffes, wildebeest, zebras, hippos and other wildlife.

For an additional experience, an optional hot-air balloon safari can be arranged in advance at extra cost and subject to availability and operating conditions.

An optional Maasai cultural visit may also be incorporated according to your interests and confirmed arrangements.

Spend your final afternoon enjoying the Maasai Mara before returning to your lodge or camp for dinner.

Your safari has taken you from Amboseli's elephant country beneath Mount Kilimanjaro to the rhino conservation landscape of Lake Nakuru and finally to three nights in the extraordinary Maasai Mara.
