Kenya Lodge Safari

8 days - from $2915

Kenya's game reserves are among the best in the world with large numbers of animal life inhabiting vast tracts of lands that are easily accessible from Nairobi. This classic safari features three very different habitats, with the opportunity to observe a variety of unusual species common only to this part of Africa. The ecosystems, landscapes and wildlife highlight the diversity of this region and our guide will be happy to explain to us all the intricacies of this fascinating area. Utilising lodges and an atmospheric permanent tented camp are also key features of this safari. Throughout this safari we travel in safari vehicles where the pop-top roof system ensures excellent game viewing, and the use of 4WD vehicles rather than minivans ensures excellent comfort and access to off-the-beaten-track places. Our specialist local guides not only share with us their incredible wildlife knowledge, but also their passion for their homeland.

Notes: Please be aware there will be some long travelling days over rough terrain in dry and dusty conditions. The sealed roads are generally very badly maintained and at times we also use dirt roads - which are worse. Occasionally they may even become impassable due to poor weather conditions, causing us to re-route the itinerary. You must be prepared for a fair bit of bouncing around.
