Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Nairobi to Samburu National Reserve.
  • After an early morning breakfast, you will head to the jewel of the North, Samburu Game Reserve.
  • Arrive in time for lunch at the Camp/Lodge.
  • Later in the afternoon, we will head out for our first game drive in search of African elephants, leopards, lions, and the African sunset.
  • A tailored game drive to maximize your time and opportunity to explore Samburu National Reserve.
  • Enjoy watching elephants wallowing in the brown waters of the Ewaso Nyiro River.
  • Observe Reticulated giraffes that dot the landscape.
  • Spot the spear-horned oryx, giraffe antelope, gerenuk, endangered Grevy's zebra, and unique Somali ostrich, which are some of Samburu's highlights.
  • It is one of the best places to see the beautiful spotted cat, the leopard, as well as birds of prey, Somali bee-eaters, and woodpeckers.
  • From Ol Pejeta, we drive to the Mt. Kenya region to arrive at the Lodge/Hotel, where you will be exploring.
  • Dinner and overnight accommodations are at the Lodge/Hotel. Optional night game drives to see nocturnal animals can be arranged at an extra cost.
  • Sweetwaters is the only sanctuary in Kenya dedicated to the rehabilitation of widely abused chimpanzees, with two groups living in an environment as close to their natural habitat as possible.
  • The site is also a dedicated black rhino breeding area.
  • It is home to the fastest-growing population of rhinos in Africa.
  • There are southern white rhinos, about 80 endangered black rhinos, and in a special sanctuary, there are two of the world's last remaining northern white rhinos.
  • We leave camp/lodge after breakfast and drive to Lake Naivasha.
  • We make a stop at the East African section of the Great Rift Valley viewpoint, a geological wonder of the world.
  • Enjoy views of Mount Longonot, a stratovolcano with an 8x12 km caldera.
  • We drive past the small Italian Catholic church built in 1942 during World War II, when Italians were prisoners of war, and Kenya was still a British colony until 1963.
  • We arrive in time for lunch, and after a brief rest, we head out for the afternoon's activities.
  • We begin with a one-hour boat ride on the only freshwater lake in the Kenyan Rift Valley, which is home to hippos and over 400 bird species.
  • Observe pied kingfishers in action and the African fish eagle searching for its primary food source, fish.
  • Common carp is the most prevalent fish in the lake.
  • Later, we go out for a nature walk at Crescent Island.
  • Dinner and overnight stay at the camp/lodge
  • Depart from Naivasha early in the morning.
  • Travel to the Masai Mara with several stops en route.
  • Arrive at the Mara in time for lunch.
  • Embark on an evening game drive in search of the big cats of Masai Mara, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, rhinos, and other species.
  • The Masai Mara National Reserve offers unrivaled opportunities for big cat sightings.
  • Return to the Camp for dinner and overnight stay.
  • Full day spent exploring the park in search of the Big Five and other predators.
  • Optional hot air balloon safari can be arranged at an extra cost of US$ 450 per person.
  • Dinner and overnight stay at the Camp.
  • The Mara offers wildlife in such variety and abundance that it is difficult to believe over 450 species of animals have been recorded here.
  • You will easily see lions, rhinos, hippos, crocodiles, giraffes, wildebeests, zebras, buffalo, warthogs, hyenas, jackals, wild dogs, leopards, many kinds of antelopes, and elephants.
  • In the Mara, perhaps the most spectacular event of the natural world takes place: the annual migration of millions of wildebeests and zebras from the Serengeti (Tanzania) in search of water and pasture.
  • Following on their heels are the predators of the savanna: lions, cheetahs, wild dogs, jackals, hyenas, and vultures.
  • We have a very flexible itinerary, and game drives are tailored to your interests with our experienced professional safari guide.
  • An early morning game drive with a picnic breakfast increases your chances of witnessing the sunrise and observing animals while they are still active.
  • The morning serenity is indescribable; you simply have to experience it.
  • The Mara River, where river crossings occur in July, August, and September, is the main water body winding through this paradise.
  • Hippopotamuses and Nile crocodiles call this area home, making it the best place in the reserve to catch a glimpse of them as they bask on the riverbanks.
  • The Sand River is another picturesque area in the Masai Mara, located right at the border with the endless plains of the Serengeti.
  • Throughout the journey, our safari guide will explain more about nature as it unfolds before you, ensuring you capture the best angles for your photos.
  • Later, you will retire to your strategically located safari camp for a sumptuous dinner and overnight stay.
  • After breakfast, we will head back to Nairobi, arriving by early evening.
  • You will either be dropped off at a Nairobi hotel or at the airport.

Very genuine with suggestions and doesn't do things as a job or formality. 3. James is very knowledgeable. 4. The enthusiasm and passion shown by James was just so infectious. 5. The planning of itinerary takes care of all the finer details. 6. They really take care of your focus and they don't try to sell anything you are not interested in. For example we skipped the village visit because we didn't see value in it. 7. Quite flexible and adjusts as things progress.

Janet was very thorough with our itenary and helped us throughout and Bonnie knew all the best spots on all of our game drives.

From the very beginning, Christine and Judith from Donwel Tours were highly atte (Read More)ntive to what we were looking to get from our first ever trip to Kenya, and Africa, for that matter. We wanted to cover a lot of ground, and were going from one agency to another before we found Donwel as most agents couldn't quite squeeze everything we wanted into our itinerary. Judith and Christine however made it all possible. Good quality stays everywhere, regular communication through the trip to ensure we were ok and were getting what we wanted. Special shoutout to Teeman, our driver who absolutely fantastic, drove safely and ensured our safety and comfort throughout the trip, regularly coordinating with Christine. This is an excellent team and we would highly recommend their services.
Everything was perfect.
