Day 1 - Nairobi, Kenya
Arrive in Nairobi, where you are met and transferred to your
hotel.
Day 2 - Ol Pejeta Conservancy
Begin your luxury safari adventure with a drive from Nairobi
to Nanyuki, crossing the equator as you go. Continue to
the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, a private reserve encompassing
90,000 acres of unspoiled African landscape where the Big
Five roam, and arrive at your stunning tented camp in time
for lunch. Nestled among fever trees in the shadow of Mount
Kenya, Sanctuary Tambarare in Laikipia looks out across
a grassy plateau. Your tent is large and airy, with a private
veranda and an en-suite bathroom that features a walk-in
shower.
Day 3 - Ol Pejeta Conservancy
Set out on a morning game drive highlighted by an up-close
visit with the world’s last northern white rhinos in their
heavily guarded enclosure. Then, take a late afternoon game
drive in this biodiverse home to black rhinos, reticulated
giraffes and Grévy’s zebra.
Day 4 - Ol Pejeta Conservancy
This morning, enjoy one of these Design Your Day activities.
Take a Guided Bush Walk accompanied by a ranger,
getting up close to life in the African bush.
Interact with the Dogs of an Anti-Poacher Unit and test
their skills, as you hide and let them sniff you out.
Visit a Chimpanzee Sanctuary to observe rescued and orphaned chimpanzees up close while learning about protection and rehabilitation efforts.
Later this afternoon, head out on a game drive, followed by
dinner in camp.
Day 5 - Masai Mara Game Reserve
Fly to the Masai Mara Game Reserve and your private
tented camp, set in a secluded location in the heart of the
wilderness. This afternoon, set out on a game drive that
introduces you to the Masai Mara. The action never seems to
stop, and the chain of command begins with the Mara’s lion
population, the largest in the country. The delicate ecosystem
of the Mara is the focus of a major conservation effort to
preserve one of Africa’s last true game strongholds. During
your time in the Masai Mara, enjoy the peace of mind that
comes with staying at luxurious A&K Exclusive Mara Camp.
Day 6 - Masai Mara Game Reserve
On morning and afternoon game drives, observe crocodiles
basking in the sun, hippos wallowing in muddy water,
elephants rustling along the forest edge and graceful giraffes
snatchings leaves from high branches. After today’s drives,
return to camp for a Chef’s Table experience featuring a
cooking demonstration and tasting of a local dish before
dinner.
Day 7 - Masai Mara Game Reserve
Set out on morning and afternoon game drives, with the
option to visit a Maasai village. On an A&K-exclusive
experience, stop at a local school on the edge of the Mara to
see a LifeStraw Water Filter that purifies water for teachers
and students — like the ones funded by each departure of
this journey — a project supported by Abercrombie & Kent
Philanthropy. Enjoy a refreshing Scenic Sundowner before
your farewell dinner.
Day 8 - Nairobi
Fly to Nairobi, where you relax in a reserved dayroom before
transferring to the airport for your departing flight.
