Combine two exquisite safari lodges on this premium week-long itinerary. Search for the Big Five in the world-famous Maasai Mara. Stay in a luxurious tented camp on the banks of the Mara River, and explore the arid Laikipia plateau from a traditional style ranch in a private conservancy. Both lodges afford the opportunity for spectacular game-viewing up close, as well as a myriad of choices for cultural connections with local communities or time to unwind and relax.
Your suggested itinerary
Day 1 Nairobi
Touchdown in the vibrant capital Nairobi, where you can relax and explore the city at your own pace, perhaps taking an optional visit to the Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage in Nairobi National Park. Overnight at Fairmont The Norfolk Hotel.
Day 2 – 4 Maasai Mara
Fly to the world-famous Maasai Mara, home to one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in the world. Here, stay at one of the best wildlife viewing spots on earth, right by the banks of the Mara River, and on the doorstep of the famous Marsh pride lions. Your home is the luxurious and intimate Il Moran considered one of the area’s premiere camps. During the day, head out on game drives in search of big cats and a whole host of other wildlife. Take to the skies on an optional sunrise hot air balloon safari, spotting crocodiles, hippos and elephants below. Overnight at Governors’ Il Moran
Days 5 – 7 Laikipia
Fly on to Laikipia in a light aircraft. A 4×4 safari vehicle will pick you up from the airstrip taking you to your home for the next three nights. Relax by the infinity pool with views of the acacia forested Mugie Conservancy and enjoy drinks by the crackling fire or overlooking the busy waterhole before heading off for game drives or walking safaris. Conservation is a huge priority here and you can learn how wildlife co-exists with local farming communities and how the anti-poaching dog units operate. Or you can simply enjoy an optional game of golf (additional cost) and take the opportunity to meet Tala the friendly giraffe. Overnight at Mugie House.
Day 8 – Departure
After a final morning game drive, fly back to Nairobi aboard a light aircraft. You will then be transferred to Nairobi international airport for your flight home. Alternatively ask us about extending your holiday to include some beach time in Kenya, Zanzibar, Mauritius or the Seychelles.
