From the wild, red-earth landscapes of Samburu to the rhino-studded plains of Ol Pejeta, and onward to the timeless beauty of the Masai Mara, this is Kenya distilled – pure, powerful, and profoundly beautiful. Your journey begins in Nairobi at Hemingways Nairobi, a serene haven of elegance and warm hospitality. From there, fly north to Saruni Samburu, perched on a cliff overlooking the Kalama Conservancy, with sweeping views of Samburu’s rugged terrain and wildlife unique to the north.
Continue to Sanctuary Tambarare in Ol Pejeta Conservancy, home to the world’s last two northern white rhinos, where cutting-edge conservation meets luxury living. End at Sanctuary Olonana, an award-winning lodge along the Mara River, where glass-fronted suites and refined service meet Africa’s most famous wildlife stage. This fly-in circuit is Kenya at its finest – luxurious, effortless, and unforgettable.

Day 1 – Nairobi (Arrival)
Arrive in Nairobi and transfer to Hemingways Nairobi. Unwind with a fine meal and a good night’s sleep before your adventure begins.
Days 2–3 – Samburu (Saruni Samburu)
Fly north to Samburu – rugged, dramatic, and utterly wild. Game drives reveal unique species like Grevy’s zebra and gerenuk. Visit a local Samburu village or enjoy a scenic sundowner from the lodge’s panoramic deck. Nights under the stars feel almost primeval.
Days 4–5 – Ol Pejeta (Sanctuary Tambarare)
Fly to Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Kenya’s conservation powerhouse. Go on game drives to see rhinos, lions, and elephants; visit the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary; and, if you wish, meet the team protecting the world’s last northern white rhinos. Evenings are peaceful, with gourmet dinners served on the plains.
Days 6–8 – Masai Mara (Sanctuary Olonana)
Fly to the Masai Mara, where your glass-fronted suite overlooks the Mara River. Morning and afternoon game drives bring you face to face with lions, leopards, and (in season) the Great Migration. One morning, lift off on an optional Hot Air Balloon Safari, followed by a champagne breakfast in the bush. Evenings are for cocktails, conversation, and candlelit dinners under acacia trees.
Day 9 – Nairobi (Departure)
After a final game drive and breakfast, fly back to Nairobi Wilson Airport for your onward flight home.
