Kenya is the original safari destination, and still an unbeatable experience. From Maasai tribes and vibrant traditions, the ancient Rift Valley and envious views of neighbouring Mount Kilimanjaro, Kenya is defined by its exciting diversity.<\/p>\n

Kenya is teeming with wildlife experiences, whether it\u2019s spotting cheetah high up in an acacia tree, a herd of elephants cooling off at a watering hole or the incredible moment you witness a lion roaming across the sun-baked savannah.<\/p>\n

Our 16-day itinerary gives you every chance to spot the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino) as well as a plethora of other wildlife as you journey through hand-picked parks and reserves, from sun-drenched Samburu, iconic Maasai Mara and the abundance of flamingos on Lake Nakuru. Distant Journeys take you beyond the game drives as you enjoy a cultural walking tour of Nairobi as well as hopping aboard the Madaraka Express, the only single gauge railway in Kenya.<\/p>\n

With the option of adding an extension to your tour in Mombasa<\/a><\/strong>, to unwind on Kenya\u2019s sunny coastline, you will experience the very best this captivating country has to offer.<\/p>\n
