Nairobi → Samburu

Meet your professional driver-guide in Nairobi and begin your private journey north toward Samburu in your 4x4 Safari Land Cruiser.

Travel through central Kenya as the landscape gradually changes from the highlands to the more dramatic semi-arid environment of northern Kenya.

Arrive at your selected lodge or tented camp and, depending on timing, begin your first wildlife experience.

Full-Day Samburu Safari

Spend a complete day exploring the Samburu ecosystem with your private driver-guide.

Search for elephants, lions, leopards and distinctive northern species including Grevy's zebra, reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, Beisa oryx and Somali ostrich.

The semi-arid landscape and riverine areas create a safari environment that contrasts strongly with the destinations you will experience later in the journey.

Samburu → Ol Pejeta Conservancy

After breakfast, leave Samburu and travel south toward the Laikipia region and Ol Pejeta Conservancy.

The journey brings another change in landscape as you move toward the highlands surrounding Mount Kenya.

Arrive at Ol Pejeta and begin exploring the conservancy with your driver-guide according to the day's timing.

Ol Pejeta adds a strong conservation dimension to the safari and provides another distinctive wildlife environment before you continue toward the Great Rift Valley.

Ol Pejeta → Lake Naivasha

Enjoy breakfast before departing Ol Pejeta and continuing toward Kenya's Great Rift Valley.

Travel through the changing highland landscapes before descending toward Lake Naivasha and its freshwater environment.

After arrival, settle into your selected accommodation. Depending on your chosen programme, an optional Lake Naivasha experience can be incorporated.

Lake Naivasha → Lake Nakuru National Park

After breakfast, continue through the Great Rift Valley toward Lake Nakuru National Park.

Enter the park for a private game drive and explore its woodlands, grasslands, lake environment and surrounding habitats.

The park provides another contrasting wildlife experience before your journey continues toward the Masai Mara.

Lake Nakuru → Masai Mara

After breakfast, leave the Lake Nakuru area and travel toward southwestern Kenya and the Masai Mara.

Arrive at your selected safari lodge or tented camp and begin exploring the Mara according to the day's timing.

The vast open plains introduce the final major wildlife ecosystem of your safari and one of Africa's most celebrated safari destinations.

Full-Day Masai Mara Safari

Spend the entire day exploring the Masai Mara in your private 4x4 Safari Land Cruiser.

Search for lions, elephants, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, antelopes and the extraordinary variety of wildlife associated with the Mara ecosystem.

During the seasonal Great Migration period, your driver-guide can focus on areas where migration activity is occurring. Your private vehicle provides the flexibility to adapt the day around wildlife sightings and your interests.

Masai Mara → Nairobi

After breakfast, depart the Masai Mara and travel back toward Nairobi after an extensive journey through several of Kenya's most distinctive safari regions.

Arrive in Nairobi and check into your selected hotel for a comfortable overnight stay before continuing to the coast.

This section can also be restructured around suitable domestic flight connections for travellers who prefer to reduce road travel.

Nairobi → Diani Beach

Today the character of your journey changes from safari to the Indian Ocean.

Travel to Diani Beach using your selected arrangement: domestic flight, SGR with connecting private transfers, or road according to the final personalised itinerary.

On arrival, transfer to your selected Diani Beach hotel or resort and settle into the tropical portion of your holiday.

Diani Beach — Full Day at Leisure

Wake beside the Indian Ocean and enjoy a completely relaxed day after your safari.

Swim in the warm tropical waters, relax on Diani's white sand, enjoy your resort facilities or simply spend the day at your own pace.

Diani Beach — Optional Marine Experience

Enjoy another beach day or add a marine experience to your personalised programme.

Options can include Wasini Island and Kisite Marine Park, private boat experiences, diving and other selected marine activities depending on your interests and travel dates.

Diani Beach — Nature, Culture or Complete Relaxation

Continue enjoying the coast or explore another side of southern Kenya.

Optional experiences can include Shimba Hills, Sheldrick Falls where conditions permit, Funzi Island or selected cultural and community experiences.

Diani Beach — Final Full Beach Day

Your final complete day is deliberately left unhurried. Relax beside the Indian Ocean, enjoy your resort or add one final coastal experience.

After an extensive safari through northern and southwestern Kenya, this final free day gives the holiday a relaxed and balanced conclusion.

Diani Beach — Departure or Extend Your Holiday

Enjoy breakfast and your final morning in Diani Beach before your onward transfer according to your flight or travel arrangements.

Additional nights in Diani Beach or elsewhere on Kenya's coast can be incorporated if you would like to extend your holiday.
