Detail

This six-day safari visits the excellent Masai Mara National Reserve in the southwest and the fantastic Lewa Conservancy in Laikipia in northern Kenya. It is an authentic excursion for people going on their first safari or for more seasoned safari travellers because it offers some of the best game-watching anyplace in Africa.

Both places are excellent places to see animals. You notice the enormous mammals as soon as you land on the airstrip at either camp. Giraffes and zebras are common. You have a very excellent chance of seeing both types of rhinos, elephants, and the graceful gerenuk in the Lewa Conservancy. Wild dogs are another potential threat. Masai Mara is also one of the best areas in Africa to see leopards, lions, and cheetahs because of the abundance of big cats there.

Visit the Masai Mara between (about) late July and the end of September to see the Great Migration, during which hundreds of thousands of migrating wildebeest cross the Mara River into Kenya and Tanzania. This is another great phenomenon to spot while on air.

What to Expect

A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul, like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart. I am alone, and feel the charm of existence in this spot, which was created for the bliss of souls like mine. I am so happy, my dear friend, so absorbed in the exquisite sense of mere tranquil existence, that I neglect my talents.
