Kenya Classic Safari

Itinerary information

Your African adventure begins with one night in Nairobi. Following your flight into Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, you will be met and transferred to the nearby Four Points Sheraton hotel to relax and unwind after your travels. An outdoor pool, fitness center, spa, and rooftop restaurant are all available on-site for your enjoyment.

After a restful evening, a private vehicle will transfer you from the hotel to the domestic Wilson Airport for a 40-minute flight to the Ol Pejeta Conservancy. Upon landing, one of Ol Pejeta Bush Camp's guides will meet you at the airport for a game drive to your new home away from home. After a warm welcome, settle into your private, eco-friendly, en-suite tent and take a moment to admire the view and listen to the natural soundtrack of your surroundings.

A delicious lunch overlooking the river is next on your agenda before venturing off into the bush for a mid-afternoon game drive. Known as a wildlife-rich reserve, there is no shortage of exciting sightings, including safari heavy hitters, the Big 5.

Itinerary information

Embark on enlightening journeys of exploration with morning and afternoon activities accompanied by knowledgeable guides. The standard rhythm of the day involves an early game drive and, if you're willing, an opportunity to try their electric, carbon neutral vehicle. Typically, guests are given an early wake-up call with tea or coffee and invited to breakfast before their morning out. However, there is always the option to head out early with a delicious picnic-style breakfast to be enjoyed on the road.

Following the morning's activity, indulge in a leisurely lunch and take the opportunity to read a book, have a snooze, or watch the world, and wildlife, go by from the comfort of your tent. Afternoon tea is the perfect time to refuel for the late afternoon game drive, complete with sundowners. Upon your return, enjoy a relaxed dinner and lounge by the fire or retire to your room and listen out for lion's calling to each other.

While game drives are the bread and butter of any safari experience, Ol Pejeta Bush Camp also offers excursions to see endangered species, Africa's modern-day dinosaurs, rhinos. Horseback safaris are also available and offer a once-in-a-lifetime experience, as does a visit to the Canine Anti-Poaching Unit visit to meet the bloodhounds sworn to protect their marks. For those who wish to get up-close and personal with big cats, venture out for some exhilarating lion tracking. Finally, for fitness fanatics and those seeking an extra adventure, head out with the Ol Pejeta Conservancy rangers for their morning run and coffee.

Itinerary information

After a final breakfast at Ol Pejeta Bush Camp, a transfer will take you back to the airstrip for a short flight to the Masai Mara. Touch down in the heart of the reserve and meet your guide from Rekero Camp for an introductory game drive on the way to your new accommodation.

Once settled in your tent, a relaxed lunch will settle you into the rhythm of the Masai Mara. Spend the afternoon acclimating to your surroundings before indulging in a much-loved tradition of freshly baked cake and tea or coffee before an afternoon game drive. Dinners are a communal affair and offer the perfect opportunity to share stories and relive each magical moment from the day.

Rekero Camp is perfectly positioned for a front-row seat to an epic annual journal, the world-famous Great Migration. In fact, you can watch this mega-herd from the comfort of your riverside tent or one of the decks. During your time here, enjoy the wealth of detailed knowledge available thanks to expert Maasai guides who know their homeland and its wildlife like the back of their hands.

For avid and amateur photographers alike, a specially modified, fully kitted out game viewing vehicle is available on request. If that's not quite your speed, enjoy a bird's eye view of the Mara plains from a hot air balloon, or learn more about the famous Kenyan big cats from the Kenyan Wildlife Camp.
