8 Days / 7 Nights Kenya Wildlife Explorer

Depart Nairobi after breakfast or collection from your agreed pickup point. Travel north through Kenya's central highlands towards Samburu as the scenery changes from fertile farmland to the drier landscapes of northern Kenya.

Arrive in the Samburu area and, depending on timing, continue with an introductory game drive. Your professional driver/guide will coordinate wildlife viewing and arrival at your confirmed accommodation.

Spend a full day exploring Samburu with morning and afternoon game drives or a longer wildlife-viewing programme according to conditions and your confirmed itinerary.

The region's riverine habitat and semi-arid landscape create a distinctive safari setting. Your guide will focus on wildlife, photography and the experience of a Samburu safari in Kenya.

After breakfast, leave Samburu and travel south towards the central highlands and the Aberdare region. The landscape becomes greener as the safari moves from northern Kenya into highland country.

Arrive in the Aberdares area and continue with the day's confirmed programme. Depending on your lodge and timing, the afternoon can include relaxation, scenic exploration or wildlife viewing around the reserve area.

Depart the Aberdare highlands after breakfast and continue towards the Great Rift Valley and Lake Nakuru, enjoying changing scenery along the route.

On arrival, continue with the day's Lake Nakuru safari programme. The park's lake environment, birdlife and varied wildlife provide a different experience from the northern and highland sections of the journey.

After breakfast, leave Lake Nakuru and travel to Lake Naivasha. The shorter transfer provides a more relaxed day and additional time to appreciate the Great Rift Valley.

Depending on your confirmed package, optional activities around Lake Naivasha can be arranged separately. The day provides a useful change of pace before continuing to the Masai Mara.

Depart Lake Naivasha after breakfast and travel via Narok towards the Masai Mara. The landscape gradually opens as you approach one of Kenya's most famous wildlife regions.

Depending on arrival time, enjoy an introductory Masai Mara game drive before proceeding to Talek and checking in at Rovers Campsite Mara.

Spend a full day exploring the Masai Mara with your professional driver/guide. The programme focuses on wildlife viewing, photography and time across the open savannah.

Your guide will use local knowledge to search for rewarding sightings. Depending on conditions, the day may offer opportunities to see elephants, giraffes, buffalo, antelopes and predators associated with a classic Masai Mara safari in Kenya.

After breakfast, enjoy any final wildlife-viewing activity included in your confirmed programme before leaving the Masai Mara and beginning the return journey to Nairobi.

Travel via Narok and the Great Rift Valley, with comfort stops coordinated by your guide. Arrival in Nairobi is expected later in the day, completing your 8 days Kenya Wildlife Explorer safari.
