Detailed itinerary for 7 Days Kenya Group Joining Safari June July August and September
We offer a whole range of set-date departures that cover the full range of budgets available throughout the region, whether that be a luxury safari or a more budget-focused adventure.
Day 1: Nairobi – Maasai Mara Drive time 5+ hours
Rise early to enjoy a delicious breakfast at your Nairobi hotel. After breakfast, depart for Maasai Mara Game Reserve. Travel through the Maasai country occasionally coming across Maasai herdsmen with their livestock living harmoniously with the wildlife.
After lunch at your residence lodge a game run is planned in these vast rolling grasslands. Here we find the Old Africa of the movies, with rolling grasslands dotted by acacia trees and sweeping plains teeming with Wildlife.
No matter how much you have thought about Africa, this is more than you expected—and the ideal backdrop for a hot air balloon expedition.
During our stay we also visit a village of the Maasai people to witness the singing and dancing that are part of their daily lives and sacred rituals. A glimpse into their homes and social structure is a poignant experience.

Day 2: Explore Maasai Mara
Morning and afternoon game drives in this magnificent Park. Maasai Mara is famous for the Annual Wildebeest Migration that takes place between the months of July and October. During this time over a million wildebeests accompanied by thousands of other herbivores, migrate from Serengeti National Park to the Mara in search for greener pastures.
Hundreds of lions and hyenas follow them picking on the old and weaker ones. The legendary black mane lion is only found in Maasai Mara. The cheetah hunts best in these open grasslands.

Day 3: Maasai Mara – Drive to Lake Naivasha Drive time 4+ hours
After breakfast, transfer to Naivasha arriving late morning. After lunch, enjoy a boat ride (optional visit to crescent island)
There is just one “Crescent Island Game Sanctuary“. Located on Lake Naivasha, in the Great Rift Valley, Kenya. It is one of the most beautiful parks in Kenya and is often called Naivasha’s best-kept secret. Surrounded by water, it is actually a peninsula and is currently only accessible by boat from the East or West side.
The shores host abundant birdlife including pelicans, cormorants, and fish-eagles with their haunting cry. There are more animals per acre than any other Kenyan Park, hence many film companies have been to the Island to film the herds of Wildebeest, Waterbuck, Zebra, and Gazelle.
Hippo graze all over us at night then sleep under the acacia or rest in the water by day. Often you can see three generations of Giraffe at a time, all of whom have been born on the Island. And if you’re lucky you may see one of the beautiful Pythons who live here.
From the top of the hill, there is a 360-degree view across the Lake from Longonot to Hell’s Gate to the Mau Escarpment to Eburu and onto the Aberdares. Walking along the ridge in the golden hour before sunset whilst watching the animals grazing with the water shimmering beyond, is what Africa is all about.
Dinner and overnight at lodge.
