Days 3-4
Amboseli National Park

After breakfast and a short briefing, a private transfer will take you to the Nairobi-Wilson airport for a flight aboard a small executive aircraft with a maximum of eight passengers.

Days 5-6
Loisaba Conservancy

Fly north to the Loisaba Conservancy for a truly distinct Kenyan experience. Set amongst the rolling river valleys and rich forest, the Loisaba Conservancy is home to the iconic Big Five as well as diverse bird species and even the endangered wild dog. Instead of the usual game drive, try exploring the area by horseback, a thrilling way to get unusually close to the wildlife. During your stay, you can also learn about the extraordinary efforts to tackle poaching with highly trained dogs at the conservations headquarters. For the more adventurous at heart, bound down the ridges by mountain bike, raft through the canyons or take a sundowner trek by camel.

Days 7-8
Masai Mara National Reserve

Take a scenic flight into the Masai Mara, one of the premier wildlife experiences in Kenya, where you’ll begin your stay with a game drive en route to the Elewana Sand River camp. With old-world 1920s style, dark wood and draped four-poster beds, this antique style is more akin to a movie set and brings the bygone era to the Mara. Located on the banks of the serene Sand River, wildlife viewing will be plentiful from the comfort of your verandah.

Expert Masai guides with deep knowledge of wildlife and culture will take you on morning and afternoon game drives - the main attraction of the Mara. A vast ecosystem is found in the Masai Mara with ample opportunity to spot the big five and even some of the smaller lesser-known game. Enjoy sundowner drinks over the plains where zebra and wildebeest can be seen grazing for miles, taking in this once in a lifetime experience.

Stay: Elewana Sand River Masai Mara (Deluxe)

Days 9-11
Serengeti National Park

Today you'll say goodbye to Kenya and head to the Serengeti, located in northern Tanzania. The Serengeti is abundant with game, and with its vast 14,763sq km area, migrating animals are always on the move. An extra night in the Serengeti is welcome, offering more time to explore and track fantastic animals and species. If timed right, the migration in the summer months can see close to a million animals migrating north, daring to cross the crocodile-infested Mara River.

The chosen camp for this stay will depend on the time of year. The Pioneer Camp, with its bygone era style located in the southern region of the Serengeti, is ideal for year-round visits with large herds of wildebeest passing frequently. During the migrating months, head north to the Migration Camp, which is ideally placed to watch the migration unfold from the comfort of your stilted tent. Whilst out on game drives, enjoy packed picnics with local favourites and sundowner G&Ts in the evening, watching the sunset over the plains of the Serengeti.

Stay: Elewana Serengeti Pioneer Camp (Deluxe) or Elewana Serengeti Migration Camp (Deluxe)

Days 12-13
Lake Manyara & Ngorongoro Crater

After an unforgettable time in the Serengeti, fly east to Lake Manyara where you will be met on arrival and transferred to lunch at the Lake. After enjoying lunch, join a game drive en route to the lodge, where hippos can be seen in the shallows as well as a flamboyance of flamingos on the water. Your final two nights will be spent at the elegant Cape Dutch-style cottage, The Manor. Enjoy a spa treatment and the afternoon at leisure before dinner.

The next day will be spent fully immersed in the biodiversity which is unique to the Ngorongoro crater. At over 20km wide and 600 metres deep, this natural volcanic amphitheatre is home to the highest density of animals in Africa at over 30,000. Explore the crater from its edge with views across the horizon, before descending down to its floor. Between spotting grazing zebra, lounging lions and a good number of black rhino, take in a final picnic lunch under the acacia trees.
