Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Nairobi – Samburu Game Reserve
Meet and greet services on arrival in the morning at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport or pick-up from your hotel at 06:30 AM by our driver-guide. We depart and head north to the Samburu Game Reserve, passing through scenic landscapes and the northern frontier. Arrive in time for lunch at your camp or lodge. In the afternoon, enjoy your first game drive in this reserve, renowned for its exclusive wildlife such as the Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, and gerenuk. Dinner and overnight at your camp/lodge on a full-board basis.
Spend the entire day exploring Samburu with morning, mid-morning, and afternoon game drives. The early morning offers the best light for photography and excellent chances to spot predators such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs. You may opt for a full-day game drive with picnic lunch boxes or return to your lodge for meals. An optional visit to a Samburu Village is available at an extra cost to experience the vibrant culture and traditions of the Samburu people. Expect sightings of elephants, buffaloes, and crocodiles in the Uaso Nyiro River, along with a rich variety of birdlife. Dinner and overnight at your camp/lodge on a full-board basis.
After an early breakfast, we depart for Lake Nakuru National Park, often referred to as the pink lake due to the presence of thousands of flamingos. The park is also home to both black and white rhinos, giraffes, lions, and various other wildlife species. Enjoy lunch upon arrival followed by an afternoon game drive. Expect guaranteed sightings of endangered rhino species in this scenic park. Dinner and overnight at your camp/lodge on a full-board basis.
After breakfast, we continue our journey towards Masai Mara, passing through picturesque farmlands and the Great Rift Valley. Arrive at your camp or lodge for lunch followed by a thrilling afternoon game drive. The Masai Mara is one of Africa’s premier wildlife reserves, home to the Big Five and the site of the Great Migration from July to October. Return to your camp/lodge for dinner and overnight on a full-board basis.
Today is dedicated to game viewing in the Masai Mara. Explore the vast plains in search of the Big Five – lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino. The reserve is also home to giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, jackals, antelopes, crocodiles, and over 450 bird species. During the migration season (July to September), the landscape is alive with dramatic wildlife movement. A picnic lunch is provided in the park.

Enjoy another full day in the Masai Mara with early morning and late afternoon game drives.

All arrangements including hotel, game drives, food arrangements, personalised s (Read More)ervices by İmara Destinations was excellent We started our trip from New Delhi to Nairobi via Mumbai by Indigo flight. Dennis was there to welcome us at the airport early in the morning. We started off to Samburu, had lunch on the way had a relaxing evening at the resort. We had a wonderful game drive next day at the samburu national reserve, saw a leopard, zebra, giraffe, ostrich, etc from close quarters. We went to ol Pajeto conservancy, fed blind rhino, saw chimpanzees and other animals including two horned rhinos, proceeded to Nakuru saw pelicans, flamingos etc there, Masai Mara we stayed for three nights and had two game drives. Could see lots of lions, cheetah with its prey as well as a pregnant cheetah, zebras, giraffes etc. we also saw ostriches and other animals and birds there. We then went to Naivasha had a boat ride with walk and see crocodiles and hippos and crescent island visit walked with zebras, impalas and wildebeest but couldn’t see giraffe there. Due to floods last year many parts of crescent island got submerged so could only see part of the island. Our last destination was Amboseli park with game drive there. Overall it was a highly satisfying and interesting experience. İmara Destinations did a very good job of taking us to the exact spots where animals would be seen uninterrupted. Well done İmara Destinations. Thanks to Dennis and Murray for it

Just went for 8 day safari with James and Wild Portraits Safaris...it was spot o (Read More)n perfect. Reasons 1.Clear communication and replies always comes very quickly on WhatsApp. 2. 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.
