The journey

Built for experienced safari-goers, this north-to-south transversal links Kenya's arid northern frontier with the Great Rift Valley and the Kilimanjaro plains. Track the rare Samburu Special Five along the Ewaso Nyiro River, drift past hippos on a Lake Naivasha boat safari and walk among wildlife on Crescent Island, then close with two full days beneath Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli. The itinerary is paced with two nights in Amboseli, so no transfer day ever steals your game viewing.
