FAQs
Nairobi National Park: Can I visit the Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage on Day 1? Yep – and it’s so worth it. After the Free Time Add-On Nairobi National Park game drive, you’ll have the option to swing by the Sheldrick Elephant Nursery. Note, however, that you’ll need to grab your own ticket in advance directly from the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust website. This costs around $20 USD.
Amboseli: What is Premium Camping? Premium camping is classic camping, levelled up. Our road crew will set up these tends for you - all with premium facilities like chill-out zones, solid bathrooms and all the creature comforts.
Amboseli: Do I need to bring a sleeping bag? Nope, you're all good! All equipment (tents, sleeping bags, etc) will be provided for you.
Amboseli: Do I need to set up camp, cook and clean when we're camping? You don't have to. Your road crew will set up camp, cook meals, and clean up afterwards - but you're always welcome to help!
Amboseli: What are the bathroom facilities like when camping? You'll have access to proper bathrooms with real toilets, hot showers and everything you need - just shared with the crew.
Included Experience
Maasai Mara National Reserve: Known for its grassy plains and rolling hills, home to lions, cheetahs, elephants, zebras and hippos, the Maasai Mara is a jewel in Africa’s wildlife crown – don’t miss your chance to explore it at sunrise.
Maasai Mara National Reserve: It’s your last evening in the Mara to see the epic wildlife on this vast savannah.
Nairobi: Meet the dedicated team and see for yourself the work being done to help the women and children who live here in the Kibera slum.
Amboseli: Get that iconic wildlife shot with the snow-capped peak of Kilimanjaro as a backdrop.
Amboseli: Get up early in search of the famous elephants in this iconic Kenyan National Park.

Tarangire National Park: Take a drive through the ‘land of giants’. This national park is known for its elephants and sprawling Baobab trees.
Mto Wa Mbu: Stroll through the Maasai Market with vibrant stalls of fruit, handmade shukas and beaded jewellery. And even sample traditional dishes (washed down with banana beer!). You'll also learn about the art of Makonde carving in this little town that's home to around 120 Maasai tribes - all with their own unique language and customs.
Serengeti: Watch out for local wildlife as we head to our camp, which is bang in the middle of these endless plains. Could the location be any more epic?
Serengeti: Was that lion we heard last night? Let’s go find out. Take an incredible morning drive in search of the wildlife we heard throughout the night.
Serengeti: Cruise around the plains at sunset to explore new areas and spot a few more animals before they head off to bed.

Maasai Mara to Sagana via Nairobi
Rise and shine, Kenyan explorers! Today, you'll have the chance to visit a Maasai village, meet members of the tribe & even learn their traditions. Then, it's back to Nairobi. This afternoon, we'll make a quick stop to visit the Kibera Slum in Nairobi.

Time to settle down in our camps for the night. So, rest up and keep dreaming of all the adventure that awaits us tomorrow.
Sagana
Love adrenaline-pumping activities? Boy, you're gonna love today. White water rafting. Mountain biking. Rock climbing. Archery. Ziplining. There's no end to all the fun you can opt in for here. Best part? You've got an onsite restaurant (with a pool & bar) to fuel up as you go.
Sagana to Amboseli
Bye bye Sagana, you've been epic. We'll hit the road once again, making a quick lunch stop for some delicious DIY sandwiches.Aaaand finally, we're in Amboseli! And of course, it's time for a game drive. So keep an eye out for the some epic wildlife (maybe even against the backdrop of Mt Kilimanjaro!) before we head to our camps for the night.
Amboseli to Mto Wa Mbu via Arusha
This morning we'll have one final game drive in Amboseli before heading across borders. So, say goodbye to our Kenyan guides, and say hello to our Tanzanian ones as we drive to the town of Arusha. Here, we'll visit the Shanga Community Project - a wonderful initiative that offers employment to disabled community members through arts & crafts.Welcome to Mto Wa Mbu - our home for the coming two nights (and also the gateway to some of the best national parks in Africa). So settle in, grab dinner, and spend some time with your crew.
Mto Wa Mbu (Including Tarangire)
Wakey wakey. You guessed it - it's game drive time!We'll head off to our game drive in Tanzania - Tarangire. Famed for its two African giants; the elephant and baobab trees.This evening, we'll wander around this wonderful lil' town's markets (and possibly get a souvenir or two). Then you have the option to walk through the canopy around Lake Manyara and even spot monkeys!
Mto Wa Mbu to Serengeti via Ngorongoro Crater
See ya in a bit, Mto Wa Mbu. We've got a couple more places to tick off. Switching to our pop-top safari vehicles, we'll head out on another game drive in search for the Big 5. Was that a lion?! Oh, it was your tummy grumbling. Fear not - it's time for lunch. Next, one more game drive in the world-famous Serengeti before heading back to our camps for the night.
Serengeti
We'll spend a full day seeking out the game of Africa's plains, with predators in hot pursuit of their prey. If the wildebeest migration is around, then you are in for a wildlife treat: millions of wildebeest and zebra grazing for as far as the eye can see really is one of Africa's greatest spectacles to observe. If you want to make today even more unforgettable, you can opt in for a once-in-a-lifetime balloon safari. A buffet dinner awaits us back at our safari camp.
Serengeti to Mto Wa Mbu
Another day, another safari. Take in the epicness of our final game drive in this wonderful national park before we head back to Mto Wa Wbu. A Maasai village tour? Mountain biking to Lake Manyara? Canoeing across it? You've got loads of activities to choose from today. Plus, if a night game drive sounds like something you'll love - this is your chance!
Mto Wa Mbu to Arusha via Lake Manyara
It's our last day on safari and our last chance for some wildlife viewing. So opt to jump on one last game drive to Lake Manyara National Park?Known for its famous tree-climbing lions (yep, you read that right), Lake Manyara offers a completely different vibe from the other parks we've hit up. Think grassy floodplains, towering forests, and the chance to spot some seriously unique wildlife and birdlife you won’t see anywhere else. And with that, our wonderful, epic, surreal trip has sadly come to an end. With full hearts and memories made, it's time to say fond farewells to your new lifelong friends, and to our African adventure.
