The Journey

Three Extraordinary Landscapes. One Remarkable Safari.

 

This seven-day private safari brings together three of Kenya's most rewarding wildlife destinations in a journey designed to give you more than simply a collection of overnight stops.

Your adventure begins with two nights in Amboseli National Park, one of Africa's most celebrated elephant destinations. Here, enormous elephant families move across open plains and permanent wetlands beneath the immense silhouette of Mount Kilimanjaro.

From southern Kenya, travel north into the Great Rift Valley and Lake Nakuru National Park, an important sanctuary for both black and white rhinos and a beautiful contrast to Amboseli's open landscapes.

The journey culminates with three nights in Maasai Mara. With two complete days devoted to the Mara, you have the luxury of time: time to follow predators, observe animal behaviour, explore different parts of the ecosystem and remain longer at exceptional sightings.

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

Two nights in Amboseli, one night at Lake Nakuru and three nights in Maasai Mara create a beautifully balanced safari — unhurried, wildlife-rich and designed around the experience rather than simply moving from one destination to another.
The Private Safari Difference

Designed Around You

A private safari gives you the freedom, privacy and flexibility to experience Kenya at your own rhythm.

01 Your Own 4x4 Land Cruiser

Travel exclusively with your own party in a purpose-built Safari Land Cruiser with a pop-up roof for wildlife viewing and photography.

02 Professional Driver-Guide

Your dedicated safari driver-guide accompanies you throughout the journey, combining wildlife knowledge with local experience.

03 Flexible Game Viewing

A private vehicle allows more flexibility to remain at interesting sightings and focus on the wildlife experiences that matter most to you.

04 Complete Safari Support

Park fees, bottled drinking water, applicable taxes and AMREF Flying Doctors evacuation cover are incorporated according to your confirmed booking.

Safari Highlights

Why This Journey Is Exceptional

A carefully balanced combination of elephants, rhinos, spectacular landscapes, big cats and extended game viewing in Maasai Mara.

01 Two Nights in Amboseli

Enjoy a complete day among Amboseli's celebrated elephant families instead of treating the park as a brief overnight stop.

02 Kilimanjaro Landscapes

When conditions are clear, Africa's highest mountain rises dramatically beyond Amboseli's plains and wetlands.

03 Lake Nakuru Rhino Country

Search for black and white rhinos within one of Kenya's important rhino conservation landscapes.

04 Three Nights in Maasai Mara

An extended stay gives you two complete days for game drives, photography and deeper exploration of the Mara ecosystem.

05 Big Cats & Big Game

Search for lions, leopards and cheetahs alongside elephants, buffalo, giraffes, wildebeest, zebras and other classic African wildlife.

06 Unhurried Private Experience

Your private vehicle means the safari can focus more closely on wildlife encounters and photographic opportunities that interest you.

7 Days / 6 Nights Private Kenya Safari

From the elephant country beneath Mount Kilimanjaro to Lake Nakuru's rhino sanctuary and three nights across the wildlife-rich plains of Maasai Mara.

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 safari driver-guide and settle into your exclusive 4x4 Safari Land Cruiser before leaving Nairobi and travelling south toward Amboseli National Park.

As the city gives way to the landscapes of southern Kenya, the horizon gradually opens into the broad plains associated with the Amboseli ecosystem. On clear days, the immense snow-capped summit of Mount Kilimanjaro creates a dramatic backdrop across the border in Tanzania.

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

Later in the afternoon, depart on your first private game drive. Amboseli is particularly celebrated for its elephants, including large family groups moving between open plains, woodland and permanent wetlands.

Keep watch for buffalo, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, gazelles, lions, hyenas and the park's abundant birdlife as the afternoon light settles across the landscape.

Return to your lodge or camp for dinner and your first night in the African wilderness.

Overnight: Amboseli National Park
Meals: Lunch and dinner according to your confirmed package.
Day 02

A Full Day in Amboseli

Elephant Herds · Wetlands · Kilimanjaro · Private Game Viewing

Wake early for one of Amboseli's most memorable possibilities: the first light of morning illuminating Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds gather around the mountain. Visibility remains entirely dependent on weather conditions.

After breakfast, dedicate the day to exploring Amboseli National Park with your private driver-guide.

The park's permanent wetlands are sustained by underground water associated with the Kilimanjaro ecosystem, creating remarkably productive wildlife habitats within an otherwise dry landscape.

Spend time observing elephant families as they move between feeding grounds and water sources. Amboseli's open terrain can provide excellent opportunities for watching elephant behaviour and photographing these animals against the park's distinctive landscapes.

Continue searching for lions, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, gazelles, hyenas, warthogs and numerous bird species.

Depending on your confirmed programme, enjoy morning and afternoon game drives with a relaxing lunch break at your lodge or camp, allowing the day to unfold at a comfortable safari rhythm.

Return to your accommodation for dinner and your second night in Amboseli.

Overnight: Amboseli National Park
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Day 03

Amboseli → Lake Nakuru

Changing Landscapes · Great Rift Valley · Rhino Country

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

The drive introduces a striking change of scenery as the open landscapes of southern Kenya gradually give way to the highlands and Rift Valley environment surrounding Lake Nakuru.

Continue toward Lake Nakuru National Park, one of Kenya's best-known protected areas for rhino conservation.

Depending on your arrival time and confirmed programme, enter the national park for game viewing.

Lake Nakuru provides opportunities to search for both black and white rhinos. Other possible wildlife includes buffalo, giraffes, zebras, waterbuck, baboons and numerous antelope species.

The lake and surrounding habitats also support an exceptional variety of birds. Flamingos may be present around the lake, although their numbers naturally vary according to water levels and feeding conditions.

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

Overnight: Lake Nakuru area
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Day 04

Lake Nakuru → Maasai Mara

Great Rift Valley · Maasai Country · First Mara Game Drive

Enjoy breakfast before continuing your journey through the Great Rift Valley toward the legendary Maasai Mara.

Depending on your confirmed schedule, complete your Lake Nakuru wildlife experience before leaving the park and beginning the journey southwest.

As you approach Maasai country, the landscape gradually opens into rolling grasslands and the vast savannahs associated with the greater Mara ecosystem.

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

Later, set out on your first private Maasai Mara game drive. The reserve supports an extraordinary diversity of wildlife, from elephants, buffalo and giraffes to wildebeest, zebras and numerous antelope species.

Keep watch for the Mara's celebrated predators — lions, cheetahs, leopards and hyenas — as you explore the savannah in the afternoon light.

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

Overnight: Maasai Mara
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Day 05

Full-Day Maasai Mara Safari

Big Cats · Savannah Wildlife · Great Migration Ecosystem

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

With no major road transfer today, you have the luxury of time to explore different areas of the reserve and concentrate on meaningful wildlife encounters.

Search for lions, elephants, buffalo, giraffes, cheetahs, leopards, wildebeest, zebras, hyenas, hippos and the many species of antelope that inhabit this remarkable ecosystem.

Your exclusive vehicle gives your driver-guide greater flexibility to remain longer at exceptional sightings and concentrate on the animals, behaviour and photographic opportunities that interest you most.

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

During the seasonal Great Migration period, large concentrations of wildebeest and zebra may move through parts of the greater Mara ecosystem. Their exact timing and location depend entirely on rainfall, grazing conditions and other natural factors.

As the day draws to a close, return to your lodge or camp for dinner and your second night in Maasai Mara.

Overnight: Maasai Mara
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Day 06

A Second Full Day in Maasai Mara

Extended Game Viewing · Predators · Photography · Optional Balloon Safari

Your three-night stay in Maasai Mara gives you something particularly valuable on safari: another complete day dedicated entirely to wildlife viewing.

The additional time allows your driver-guide to explore different areas of the ecosystem according to recent wildlife movements, weather conditions and information gathered during your previous game drives.

You may spend the morning searching for predators, follow elephant families across the plains or simply remain with an exceptional wildlife encounter without the pressure of needing to continue toward another destination.

For photographers and wildlife enthusiasts, this additional day can be especially rewarding because it provides more opportunity to observe natural behaviour rather than simply moving rapidly between sightings.

An optional early-morning hot-air balloon safari can be arranged in advance, subject to availability and additional cost.

A cultural visit to a Maasai community may also be arranged according to your interests and confirmed programme.

Return to your selected lodge or tented camp for your final dinner and third overnight in Maasai Mara.

Overnight: Maasai Mara
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Day 07

Maasai Mara → Nairobi

Final Safari Morning · Great Rift Valley · Journey Home

Enjoy breakfast during your final morning in Maasai Mara.

Depending on your confirmed departure schedule, there may be an opportunity for final wildlife viewing before leaving the Mara ecosystem.

Begin your return journey toward Nairobi, travelling through the Kenyan countryside and Great Rift Valley.

The journey provides time to reflect on the extraordinary contrasts of the past seven days: Amboseli's elephants beneath Mount Kilimanjaro, Lake Nakuru's rhino habitat and the predator-rich grasslands of Maasai Mara.

Upon arrival in Nairobi, your professional driver-guide will transfer you to your confirmed hotel, residence or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport according to your onward arrangements.

Your seven-day private Kenya safari concludes in Nairobi, bringing to an end a journey through three of the country's most remarkable wildlife landscapes.

Day 7: Breakfast and other meals according to your confirmed package.
Final Drop-Off: Nairobi.

Frequently Asked Questions

Planning Your Private Kenya Safari

Essential information about this seven-day Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara itinerary.

How are the six safari nights divided?

The safari includes two nights in Amboseli National Park, one night in the Lake Nakuru area and three nights in Maasai Mara.

Why do we spend two nights in Amboseli?

Two nights provide a complete day for game viewing in Amboseli, giving you more opportunities to observe the park's elephant herds and experience Mount Kilimanjaro views when weather conditions are favourable.

Can we see Mount Kilimanjaro from Amboseli?

Yes. Amboseli is famous for views toward Mount Kilimanjaro. Visibility depends entirely on weather and cloud conditions, with early morning often providing particularly good opportunities.

Can we see rhinos at Lake Nakuru?

Lake Nakuru is an important rhino conservation area and provides opportunities to search for both black and white rhinos. As with all wildlife experiences, sightings remain natural and cannot be guaranteed.

Why are three nights allocated to Maasai Mara?

Three nights provide two complete days in Maasai Mara without a major road transfer, giving considerably more time for game drives, photography, predator viewing and exploring different parts of the ecosystem.

Can we experience the Great Migration?

The greater Maasai Mara ecosystem forms part of the annual Great Migration route. Large wildebeest and zebra herds may be present during the migration season, but their timing and location depend on rainfall, grazing conditions and other natural factors.

Are Mara River crossings guaranteed?

No. River crossings are spontaneous natural wildlife events. Although they may occur during the migration period, their timing cannot be scheduled or guaranteed.

Can we add a hot-air balloon safari?

Yes. A Maasai Mara hot-air balloon safari can be arranged in advance at additional cost and subject to availability and operating conditions.

Is this safari completely private?

Yes. Your 4x4 Safari Land Cruiser and professional safari driver-guide are reserved exclusively for your travelling party.

Where does the safari start and finish?

The safari starts in Nairobi on Day 1 and returns to Nairobi on Day 7. Collection and final drop-off are arranged according to your confirmed travel plans.
