MealsBed and breakfast
Where you sleep
Every property on this route was picked for location first: inside the reserve, on the river, facing the waterhole.
Nairobi
A quiet garden property for the first three nights, chosen because arriving well matters more than arriving glamorously.
Ol Pejeta Conservancy
Tents arranged around a waterhole with Mount Kenya beyond. Rhino, elephant and buffalo come to drink through the night.
Samburu National Reserve
Canvas suites facing the river, where elephants cross at dusk and the doum palms hold the last of the light.
Lake Nakuru National Park
Perched above the park with long views to the lake and the escarpment behind it.
Maasai Mara National Reserve
Inside the reserve, which means you are on the plains at first light rather than queuing at a gate.
Lake Naivasha
Green lawns, fever trees and hippos grunting somewhere out in the dark.
Amboseli National Park
The closing nights of the safari, with elephants passing and the mountain behind them.

Make it yours
Add any of these to your quote. Nothing is charged until you confirm — selections simply update the summary below.
Lift off in the dark and watch the Mara appear beneath you as the sun comes up — herds moving, rivers turning silver, no engine noise at all. Champagne breakfast in the grass afterwards.
US$550 per person
A respectful visit to a Maasai family near Amboseli, centred on conversation rather than performance: how a boma is built, what cattle mean, the ornaments the women make, and the questions you are welcome to ask.
US$45 per person
Your driver-guide stops somewhere with a long view, and breakfast is already waiting — proper coffee, fresh fruit, hot food, and nothing between you and the plains.
US$70 per person
Drinks and light refreshments set out on a rise as the light goes gold and then red. Twenty quiet minutes that most travellers remember longer than the drives.

Traveller stories
Reviews from travellers who have taken this route with our guides.
“Every transfer, every camp, every early start was handled before we even thought to ask. Our guide found a leopard on our last morning in Samburu and we all cried a bit. Faultless from the first email.”
“We were worried about the driving days. Top Africa Safaris rearranged two nights so the children had a swim and a rest in the middle. Amboseli with Kilimanjaro out of the window was the moment of their lives.”
“What stood out was the honesty — they told us when a sighting was unlikely rather than overselling it. The balloon over the Mara was worth every cent, and the bush breakfast afterwards was pure magic.”
“Window seat for everyone, Wi-Fi that actually worked, and a driver-guide who could name every bird we pointed at. Ol Pejeta and the rhino work there was the highlight for me.”
A message from our founder
“I grew up with these landscapes on my doorstep, and I still find the first light over the Mara difficult to describe. What we build for you is not a package. It is thirteen days shaped around how you like to travel — how early you want to rise, how long you want to sit with a sighting, where you would rather have lunch. Tell me what you are hoping for, and I will write the journey around it.”
