Welcome to Kenya. Upon arrival in Nairobi, you’ll be met at the airport for a short game drive transfer to your comfortable tented camp within Nairobi National Park. This is the only national park in the world that’s located in a city.

Your base for the next two nights is Porini Amboseli Camp, a small, remote, and eco-responsible bush camp in the heart of the reserve. Its location makes it one of the best places to head out on a walking safari, accompanied by Maasai warriors and a local guide. You can also visit an authentic Maasai village, offering an authentic insight into Maasai culture. Back at camp, relax around the outdoor fireplace and soak up sunset views over Mount Kilimanjaro. Overnight at Porini Amboseli Camp.

Day 3

Amboseli

Today you can enjoy a full day 4x4 game drive in the Amboseli National Park, getting up close to the huge herds of elephants and other wildlife that live here. As well as the wildlife itself, another memorable highlight is the parks dramatic setting beneath Africa’s highest mountain, Kilimanjaro. After time to relax back at camp, another great experience is a thrilling night drive through the conservancy. This offers a great opportunity to witness the behaviour of nocturnal animals in their natural habitat. Overnight at Porini Amboseli Camp.

Day 4

Amboseli & Mount Kenya

Fly to Nanyuki by light aircraft, then drive to your camp in the vast Ol Pejeta Conservancy between Mount Kenya and the Aberdare range. Porini Rhino Camp is hidden in a secluded valley in Africa's largest black rhino sanctuary, home to around 105 black rhino, 20 southern white rhino and two northern white rhinos. During your stay you can enjoy both day and night game drives, discovering the rhino and learning about how they are protected here. Overnight at Porini Rhino Camp.

Day 5

Mount Kenya

Enjoy a second day in Ol Pejeta, with further game drives or a fascinating walking safari across the open plains escorted by Maasai guides. The nearby chimpanzee sanctuary is also well worth a visit. You may also choose to spend some time closer to home, where a wildlife viewing hide is carefully located to enhance sightings right in front of camp. Overnight at Porini Rhino Camp.

Day 6

Mount Kenya & Maasai Mara

Today fly to the Olare Motorogi Conservancy, bordering the famous Maasai Mara National Reserve. Created in co-operation with 150 Maasai landowners, this 33,000-acre wilderness conservancy was set aside for wildlife conservation and low-impact tourism. During your two-night stay at the Porini Lion Camp you’ll join morning, evening, and night drives, accompanied by highly qualified safari guides and wildlife spotters. Together you’ll seek out the various big cats that the area is famous for. The conservancy setting also offers the opportunity for guided bush walks with Maasai warriors. Overnight at Porini Lion Camp.

Day 7

Maasai Mara

Today you’ll finish your wildlife adventure in memorable fashion. Firstly, you may like to consider an optional hot-air balloon safari, offering an endless panorama and completely new perspective on the wildlife roaming far below. Then spend the rest of the day on a game drive exploring the incredible Mara National Reserve. Here there’s the opportunity to spot the Big Five, plenty of big cats, and a long list of other wildlife species. Returning to camp you may want to consider a final night drive, in search of nocturnal animals like aardvarks, bat-eared foxes and serval cats. Overnight at Porini Lion Camp.

Maasai Mara Balloon Flight

Maasai Mara

Take to the skies on a hot air balloon safari, where you’ll watch the sunrise over the Maasai Mara and get an aerial view of African wildlife. A private balloon safari is available at many of our recommended properties in the Maasai Mara. Starting just before dawn, you’ll enjoy a hot drink while watching the balloon slowly inflate at the launch site. Take off is around 6.00am as the sun rises over the plains, bringing the landscape into colourful life. The aerial views over the Maasai Mara are just magical, with the chance of seeing large herds of elephants, buffalo, and gazelles from above, as well as giraffes and zebras wandering the plains. Guests are amazed by how vast the savannah looks from this elevated angle, it’s a totally different perspective from a game drive in the Maasai Mara. When you land there will be a table all set up with camp chairs and a tablecloth for the bush breakfast. The first thing you’ll get is a glass of Champagne – who doesn’t want some bubbly in the middle of the Maasai Mara? Then you’ll enjoy a hot and cold breakfast spread. Your pilot will join you to answer questions, share bush stories, and explain the history of ballooning in the Mara. Or you can just sit back and take in views of the Maasai Mara as it wakes for the day.

Day 8

Maasai Mara & Departure

Depart Olare Motorogi after breakfast, on a 50-minute light aircraft flight back to Nairobi.
