Itinerary

Day 1: You will be met at the Nairobi Airport, briefed on your safari, and transferred to the Panafric Hotel, located in a quiet residential suburb. This hotel offers a panoramic view of the Nairobi city centre and is renowned for its traditional hospitality. If your flight arrives in the morning, we can arrange an optional day trip to the Karen Blixen Museum or the Giraffe Center.

Day 2: You will be collected from your hotel after breakfast and driven to Mount Kenya National Park. In the afternoon you will take a walking safari to the ‘’Mau Mau’’ Caves, used by freedom fighters as the hiding place during the struggle for independence. All meals will be served at the mobile camp by your chef who will accompany you on the safari. Other activities, such as hiking for a day at Mount Kenya , can be organised at an extra cost. BLD

Day 3: After breakfast we travel through the Great Rift Valley to Lake Nakuru National Park, which boasts a rich concentration of wildlife and a Rhino Sanctuary. This lake and park is famous for its flamingos, but there are many other types of birds living and feeding there. Accommodation will be at Hotel Sundowner tucked away in a quiet corner of Nakuru town. The hotel is simple but clean and has rooms with private bathroom and direct dial telephone. BLD

All meals are prepared over a wood fire by an excellent chef. BLD

An optional early morning balloon ride can be arranged for you – ask your travel agent.
