7-Day Kenya Wildlife Safari

Morning:Leave Nairobi at 08:00 AM, driving north through central Kenya’s fertile highlands, past rows of coffee and tea plantations, before arriving at Aberdare National Park.

Afternoon:Check into a unique forest “tree lodge.” Spend your afternoon relaxing on the observation decks. Wildlife comes directly to you here, drawn by a floodlit salt lick and waterhole located right beneath the lodge. Spot unique forest species like black rhinos, bushbucks, and giant forest hogs from the comfort of the viewing decks.

Night:Dinner and overnight at The Ark Lodge (or similar).

Morning:After breakfast, leave the Great Rift Valley lakes behind and drive across the expansive Loita Plains, entering the ancestral lands of the Maasai people.

Afternoon:Arrive at your Maasai Mara safari camp in time for lunch. Unwind before your 04:00 PM game drive, where you will immediately begin tracking the reserve’s famous big cat prides.

Night:Dinner and overnight at Zebra Plains Mara Camp (or similar).

Morning:After an early breakfast, depart Lake Nakuru and drive south through the floor of the Rift Valley, heading up the escarpment toward the Maasai Mara.

Afternoon:Reach your luxury camp in the Mara by lunchtime. Head out at 04:00 PM for an afternoon game drive, tracking lions and leopards along the riverine forests.

Night:Dinner and overnight at Mara Leisure Camp (or similar).

Morning/Afternoon:Enjoy three full days in the Maasai Mara. This extended stay allows your guide to take you to remote corners of the reserve, including the Mara Triangle and the border zones near the Serengeti. You will have plenty of time to witness active predator behavior, large elephant herds, and seasonal migration river crossings.

Night:Dinner and overnight at Mara Leisure Camp (or similar).

Morning:Take a short, final sunrise game drive followed by a hot breakfast back at camp. Check out and begin your return drive to Nairobi.
