Welcome to Kenya. This is just one of the many, many extraordinary magical and wondrous experiences you could experience on our 7-night adventure. This is the minimum amount of time you need to get the most out of Kenya; to see more than one park or game reserve, you need at least a week, with one day at least at each to make the most out of early-morning and late-afternoon game drives, when animals are most active.Nairobi, where our journey starts, serves as an excellent starting point for safaris around this spectacular country. We’ll soak up the colour and buzz of this dynamic city and then set out to explore a land where animals still roam as freely as they did, hundreds of years ago.
Our safaris will take us to corners of Kenya that create those magical moments when you just think – ‘this is what it’s all about’. One of those places is Amboseli National Park where African elephants stand proud against the backdrop of ice-capped Mount Kilimanjaro – it is one of the most iconic images of Africa.
Then we visit Lake Naivasha, Kenya’s hidden gem. This is Kenya’s second-largest freshwater lake, and a very beautiful area, filled with kingfishers, herons, pelicans, and hippos!
We’ll also go on safari in Africa’s most famous wildlife park, the Masai Mara National Reserve. It is perhaps one of the few regions left in Africa where you’ll find wildlife in exceptional abundance. There’s no telling what you might encounter here: golden-maned lions lounging in the sun; giraffes gracefully stretching their long necks to nibble the tip-tops of acacia trees; hundreds of
zebra grazing in the grass; a cheetah quietly hunting an antelope; a mother elephant giving its baby a mud bath; that’s what makes a day here so special.
And as we’ll be visiting in August, we’ll be able to see The Great Migration – a once- in-a-lifetime experience. Here, as they have done for hundreds of years, around 1.5 million wildebeest and other iconic wildlife will chase the rains across this grassland. It’s a journey beset with drama and danger, as the herds have to contend with lions, leopards, hyenas and crocodiles as they make
their way. It is truly nature’s most thrilling spectacle.
This trip is, without doubt, the most glorious adventure in the great outdoors, and one guaranteed to make your ‘wild’est dreams come true.
