Laikipia, Masai Mara & Diani Safari

Board a small charter from Nairobi and start your safari adventure in Kenya on the Laikipia plateau. Explore the stunning OlPejeta Conservancy by horseback or safari vehicle.

A day in Laikipia is a morning and afternoon game drive, wildlife here is diverse and we’ll be looking out for rhinos, lion, wild dogs and elephant as well as more unusual species such as the reticulated giraffe and Grevy's zebra. For those that are interested, you can meet some of the rangers and anti-poaching patrol teams.

Fly to the Masai Mara National Reserve and begin the second part of your safari. The Masai Mara is home to some of the best wildlife viewing in Africa. If you are here in August or September, you may catch sight of the Great Migration, where two million wildebeest and zebra flood the grassy savannah plains, and big cats lie in wait for the perfect moment to pounce.

Year-round the wildlife here is incredible, though, with pods of hippos wallowing in the mud, herds of elephants, prides of lazy lions lounging on the top of the rocky kopjes and cheetah who have even been known to sit on the roof of a safari vehicle as a vantage point.

For a real treat, take to the skies in a hot air balloon to get an aerial perspective. Add to your traditional safari experience a cultural Masai village visit, offering you a glimpse into traditional Masai life, great for teens.

After this, some beach time is in order, and where better than the Kenya coast, just a short hop away by plane. Relax and unwind and indulge at the spa, whilst the teenagers head to the beach to play football or volleyball, or try their hand at kitesurfing, sailing or doing an introductory dive course.
