With our tailor-made breaks, you can pick’n’mix from any of our suggested programmes. Whatever you decide to do, it can be extended with the following options …

Great Rift Valley
Aberdare Ranges
Despite being one of Kenya’s most beautiful places, it gets few tourists. It has moorland peaks up to 4,000m, trout-filled streams and 300m waterfalls. The low level forest is riddled with elephant, rhino, lion, bushbuck and buffalo.

Laikipia & Northern Territory

Tassia Lodge, Lekurruki Community Ranch
Simply stunning location overlooking the Northern Frontier district towards Samburu, Shaba and sacred Lolokwe Mountain. The lodge sits on a rocky bluff, with views over a valley whose Loimugo trees are the local elephants' dish of the day. A great place to relax, it has forests alive with butterflies, birds and rare plants, challenging walks up the river and waterfalls and pools designed for wallowing after the rains have cranked up the river.

Camel Trek

A ride on the spitting, swaying camels lets you blend into the untouched savannah – and penetrate a world that seems untouched my modern life. You’ll see Samburu and Boran tribes – this is their land – with centuries old traditions, customs and lifestyles.

National Parks

Maasai Mara Reserve
One of Kenya’s most popular parks – and it’s quite clear why. The ‘Mara’s’ open grassland and flat-topped acacias are part of the evocative Serengetti Plains with huge concentrations of game, including the extraordinary annual migration of wildebeest.

Tsavo National Park

The largest park in Kenya at 20,000 sq km, it’s  split into Tsavo East and Tsavo West, and has over  9,000 elephants. Stay in the old warden’s house and you’ll get views over to Kilimanjaro and elephants at the waterhole just metres from your veranda.

Nairobi – Mombasa Train

Old-fashioned romance rumbles on. This is a popular overnight route to the coast, offering the historical charm of Kenya Railways where little appears to have changed in the last half century – the dining room is straight out of the 1940s with old silverware and overhead fans. But the compartments are very clean and it’s a gentle sensation to wind your way through farmland before entering the Tsavo ecosystem.
