Let us customise this sample itinerary to make your dream safari

Overview

Go on your own personal migration across Kenya, with each step of the way being an opportunity for extraordinary game viewing under expert guidance, usually by Masaai or Samburu rangers. Spotting big game on the outskirts of Nairobi, the third biggest city on the continent and the only one in the world with a reserve quite like this, is the first taste of a week’s worth of East African adventure.

After sleeping under canvas at Nairobi Tented Camp, fly south-east to Mount Kilimanjaro and the great elephant herds of Amboseli National Park, to the true African style of spacious tents at Tortilis Camp. Sleep the sleep of the enchanted after a day’s game viewing and a relaxing massage, followed by a fine meal. Sad to leave but excited to move on, you head into the dry Northern Frontier District, to the land of the enigmatic Samburu, where the Elephant Bedroom is your home. You will be forgiven for thinking you have packed up all your creature comforts and gone back into the past, so remote and unspoilt is this spectacular location.

Your last stop is Ilkeliani Camp in the Masai Mara, nestled in riverine forest. This is the home of vast herds of plains game, followed always by hungry predators. And for you, delicious food, campfires by night and stargazing to end off perfect days.

Itinerary

Day to day

Get into the safari spirit as soon as you touch down in Nairobi, with your first night under canvas at Nairobi Tented Camp, the earliest accommodation ever built in Nairobi National Park. Prepare to be pleasantly surprised: you may be next to Africa’s third largest city, but the camp is deep in riverine forest and is surrounded by wildlife. And the tents are your first taste of traditional safari life – comfortable, en-suite, with hot water heated on a log fire for your shower, and romantically lit in the evenings.

Wake to the dawn chorus on your first morning in Kenya, with a game drive and a hearty breakfast on the agenda. The southern boundary is unfenced, drawing migratory species during the dry season. Trips to other Nairobi landmarks, such as the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage and AFEW Giraffe Centre, are also easy to undertake from the park. Or simply enjoy a nap under a shady tree in your hammock.

I love the option of experiencing a tented camp as soon as you arrive - located outside of the city centre. The private conservancy experience outside Amboseli offers more diverse activities before you head into the park for the famous Kilimanjaro view. Look out for the unique animals of the Samburu, before ending off with the Masai Mara, known for its excellent concentration of game large population of Big Cats. This is a great for a first Kenyan safari.
