Welcome to the home of wildlife safaris – Kenya. A unique destination, Kenya offers travelers a perfect blend of vibrant culture, thrilling adventure and epic wildlife encounters. This 13 day itinerary will see you visit three iconic safari destinations including Masai Mara Game Reserve, Amboseli National Park and Lewa Conservancy. With luxurious camps and lodges as your base, you will have the opportunity to witness the famed great wildebeest migration, as well as discover new cultures and learn the customs of the indigenous people who have carved and shaped the Kenyan landscape for centuries.
Upon arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, a Ker & Downey® Africa representative will meet you and assist you through customs and immigration and onward to your awaiting private vehicle. Your driver will accompany you to the nearby Crowne Plaza Nairobi. This elegant hotel is perfectly located for your time in Nairobi and gives you direct access to the vibrant city center.

On touchdown, a lodge representative will meet you and transfer you to Elewana Sand River Masai Mara. Located on the banks of the Sand River, this exclusive tented camp will be your base for your time in the Mara. Spend your days on morning and afternoon game drives in custom-designed 4×4 safari vehicles followed by time at leisure at the camp’s enticing infinity pool. Or sit back and witness the mega herds of wildebeest make their way across the Sand River from the comfort of your luxury tent. You will also have the opportunity to visit the local village to witness the traditions of the Maasai people, and a hot air balloon safari can be pre-booked on request.

Located on the western edge of Amboseli, in a private conservancy, this camp guarantees absolute privacy with very few safari vehicles competing for the wildlife action.
