Explore Kenya’s Wildlife from Samburu to the Mara

This 6 day Kenya safari from Nairobi takes you across some of Kenya’s best known wildlife areas. Start in Samburu, where the landscape and wildlife are very different from the southern safari parks. Continue to Lake Nakuru, then travel to the Maasai Mara for two days of game drives across the famous savannah plains.

The safari combines morning and afternoon game drives with comfortable lodge or camp stays and full board meals. It is a good choice for travellers who want to see several of Kenya’s major safari destinations in one trip.
