This seven-day journey is Kenya distilled into its most rewarding form — four ecosystems, four iconic wilderness areas, and six nights in hand-picked luxury properties. Beginning in the remote Northern Frontier at Samburu National Reserve — home to rare species found nowhere else in Kenya — the route sweeps south through the rhino sanctuary of Ol Pejeta Conservancy, the flamingo-fringed shores of Lake Nakuru, and reaches its crescendo at the legendary Masai Mara. Each property has been selected for its exceptional location, guiding quality and conservation credentials: Elephant Bedroom Camp in Samburu (where elephants regularly wander through); Sweetwaters Serena Camp on Ol Pejeta (Africa's largest black rhino sanctuary); The Cliff Nakuru (elevated views over the lake); and Ilkeliani Camp inside the Masai Mara reserve. From the Samburu Special Five — Grevy's zebra, reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, Somali ostrich, Beisa oryx — to the Big Five in the Mara, this is Kenya's full wildlife story, told in seven extraordinary days. A Maasai village cultural visit and optional rhino tracking on foot at Ol Pejeta add depth and meaning to every game drive.

Vehicle Used
Your safari begins with a morning pick-up in Nairobi by your private guide in a customized safari 4x4 Land Cruiser. Head north past the fertile highlands of central Kenya, crossing the equator with dramatic vistas of Mount Kenya's jagged peaks before descending into the wild Northern Frontier. Arrive at Elephant Bedroom Camp in time for lunch. Set directly on the banks of the brown, life-giving Ewaso Nyiro River, the camp regularly hosts resident elephants wandering beneath the shade of towering riverine trees. Head out for an afternoon game drive in search of Samburu’s unique wildlife, returning at dusk for a gourmet dinner under the stars.

Tipping Guidelines

Tipping is a customary gesture of appreciation for exceptional service throughout your journey. We recommend budgeting US $15.00 per person, per day for your main safari driver-guide. For lodge and camp staff, general tip boxes are available at reception, where US $5.00 to $10.00 is standard to cover back-of-house teams. For specialized local guides or boat captains, US $5.00 to $10.00 per activity is appreciated. Tips are best paid in cash using crisp US Dollar bills or local

Child Policy

Children aged 2 to 11 sharing a room with two full-paying adults receive discounted rates, typically 50% to 75% of the adult price depending on the property. Children occupying their own room are charged standard adult or single rates. Minimum age limits apply for specific activities, including gorilla trekking (minimum 15 years) and walking safaris (typically minimum 12 to 16 years). Children under 2 years generally travel free, though nominal transport or sanctuary fees may apply.

Single Supplement Policy

Safari package pricing is based on double occupancy. Single travelers occupying a private room or tent incur a single supplement charge to cover fixed accommodation and transfer costs. During low or green seasons, select partner lodges may waive this fee. For group bookings requesting individual rooms, the supplement applies strictly to those single units. Exact rates vary by property and season, typically ranging between 20% and 50% above the per-person sharing rate.
