• day 1

  Nairobi

  JAMBO - KARIBU! Upon your arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, the representatives of Inclusive Holidays Africa will warmly welcome you to Kenya. We will then head to our hotel, located in a serene environment, away from the busy business city center, offering peace of mind and heart, a pleasant place for you to rest and relax before starting your safari. Nairobi is the main economic, administrative, and cultural center of Kenya, and one of the largest and most dynamic cities in Africa. Nairobi means "place of cool waters" in the Maasai language. Our representative will assist you during check-in and ensure that you are well settled.

• day 2

  Nairobi - Lewa Downs Conservancy

  You will go in search of game just before sunrise, taking advantage of the rich wildlife and savannah of the park. The game viewing is exceptional, with many black rhinos, buffaloes, the rare Grevy's zebra, and resident predators, all set against the backdrop of magnificent views of snow-capped Mount Kenya. Between morning and afternoon, you will have plenty of time to relax and enjoy the atmosphere of your luxury tented camp.

• day 3

  Lewa Downs Conservancy

  Leave early in the morning from the camp for a walk in the desert with an experienced guide, discovering the sights and sounds of the bush: the tracks of the lion, hyena, and rhinoceros; the piercing alarm call of the guinea fowl; the rich scent of African earth. Finish your adventure with a picnic breakfast in the shade of an acacia tree. In the evening, sunsets at stunning viewpoints are a daily indulgence, a true safari ritual. Private bush dinners are also available on request.

• day 4

  Lewa Downs Conservancy - Northern Laikipia

  Return to the airstrip for a flight to the Loisaba airstrip. A vehicle will be waiting to take you to the camp. The eastern escarpment of the Rift Valley, known as the Laikipia plateau, is divided into huge game reserves, which contain some of the most exclusive lodges in the most remote parts of Kenya. This immense stronghold of wildlife is remarkable for its selective huts, its important ecosystem with significant wildlife populations, and the fact that it is home to more endangered species than anywhere else in Africa.

• day 5

  Northern Laikipia

  Start the day by driving early in the morning in search of endangered wild dogs. Return to the camp for a late breakfast. During the day, you can go climbing, swimming, tubing, rafting, or even fishing. Later, leave in the late afternoon for a hunting walk that ends at your camp for the night. Enjoy dinner and drinks around the fire before sleeping under the stars. Return to the camp for breakfast in the morning.

  Northern Laikipia

  Your daily schedule will be discussed with you upon your arrival, in order to include all activities according to your interests. Today, you can go on a longer safari by visiting a local Samburu village.

  Northern Laikipia - Masai Mara

  After breakfast, you will be transferred to the Nanyuki airstrip. Here, you will take a scheduled flight to the Masai Mara. Your driver-guide will welcome you at the airstrip and drive you to the camp or lodge, with game viewing along the way. Lunch at the lodge and rest before departing for the afternoon safari. The Mara reserve is one of the largest wilderness areas in the world. Large mammals are varied and easy to observe here. Among the park's residents are: the Masai giraffe, buffalo, eland, and thousands of hoofed animals, including impala, zebra, topi, Thomson's gazelle, and other gazelles.

Then enjoy an afternoon game drive in this vast reserve teeming with wildlife. Be on the lookout for the famous "Big Five," the most sought-after at the beginning of the 20th century, when Kenya was a paradise for hunters. The vast endless savannah grasslands are home, among others, to the black-maned lion, Cape buffalo, savannah elephant, black rhinoceros, the elusive leopard, impalas, Masai giraffes, waterbucks, warthogs, Thompson's and Grant's gazelles, topis, and resident wildebeest.
