Dawn arrives over the savanna like slow machinery — a cool, clean light rolling across grass that short-circuits into gold. You’re in a Land Cruiser with a pop-up roof, camera in hand, engine idling while a guide scans the horizon. Within an hour the silhouette of a bull elephant appears, trunks and ears articulated against a distant volcanic skyline. This is the rhythm of a seven-day Kenyan circuit that packs three iconic parks, a lake-boat trip, cycling at Hells Gate and a chance to watch Kilimanjaro wear its summit like a crown.

Reserve your spot on the 7 Days Safari to Masai Mara Nakuru and Amboseli in upgraded camps today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Time your game drives
Book early-morning and late-afternoon drives for the best animal activity and golden light for photography.
Pack for dust and sun
Bring breathable layers, a buff or bandana for dust, and high-SPF sunscreen—shade is rare during drives.
Carry local currency
Small vendors, Maasai village fees and optional activities like Crescent Island often require cash (USD or KES).
Respect wildlife distances
Stay in the vehicle unless with a guide and avoid loud noises—animals set the pace of any close encounter.
Binoculars (8–10x)
Bring binoculars to scan distant herds and spot birds on lakeshore fringes.
Telephoto lens (200–400mm)
A long lens captures close animal portraits from the safety of your vehicle.
Sturdy walking shoes
Useful for short walks, boat landings and the Hells Gate gorge trek.
Sun protection kit (hat + sunscreen + sunglasses)
High-altitude sun and open plains make strong UV protection essential.
