Wildlife experience

Kenya is a fantastic country for big-game safaris. Its vast parks and reserves are home to a great density and variety of wild animals and birds. It's also one of only a few African countries where you can see all of the Big Five: elephants, leopards, lions, Cape buffaloes and black rhinos. Moreover, the Great Wildlife Migration heads into south Kenya between June and October, offering a spectacle like none other on Earth!

Our itineraries

We have four exciting Kenya itineraries on offer. All include visiting the spectacular Great Migration in Maasai Mara, but each has something else unique to offer. Our Great Migration itinerary is perfect for those with limited time.
