Day 1 | 25th January 2027 (D)
Welcome to Nairobi. We will be transferred to our hotel by private transfer. After check-in we will have time at leisure before our welcome group dinner in a local restaurant. A great way to meet your fellow adventurers and to try on your new Diva Destinations Safari hat.
Day 2 | 26th January 2027 (B)
This morning after breakfast, we will be transferred to the Giraffe Sanctuary, where you can interact with these graceful creatures at eye level, via a raised platform. These Rothschilds giraffe are endangered and live on the sanctuary for their protection. After our visit here we will be transferred to The Sheldrick Wildlife trust, a delightful elephant orphanage where you encounter the rescued wildlife and learn about their journey back to living free and meet their care givers. A transfer is included back to our hotel in time for lunch. After lunch we have entry to the Karen Blixen Musuem, the Danish Author known for her memoir Out of Africa. The 100-year-old farmhouse where Karen Blixen lived and ran a coffee plantation is now a preserved museum, offering a glimpse into Kenya's colonial history through artifacts, books, and furniture that belonged to Blixen. It is a prized destination because it connects visitors to Kenya's past, from colonialism to independence, and the grounds feature original farm equipment. We will have the remainder of the day at leisure before taking our group meal in a local restaurant.

After an early breakfast, we will be met by our private driver/guides in 4 x 4 safari vehicles with panoramic pop-up roofs.

We will be driven north via some spectacular scenery and we may catch a glimpse of Mount Kenya en route, to Samburu. We should arrive in time for a late lunch. An afternoon game drive is included and we will return to your camp as the sun sets, in time for dinner. Wild and remote, Samburu, Buffalo Springs and Shaba Reserves protect arid thornbush savannah, scrubland and scattered acacia. The rare wildlife adapted to this harsh environment includes Reticulated giraffe, Grevy’s zebra, generuk, Somali ostrich and Beisa oryx. The birdlife is marvellous, with over 380 recorded species. Running through Samburu and bordered by a permanent ribbon of green, the Ewaso Nyiro River is the lifeblood of the ecosystem, drawing large herds of elephant and lion to the banks.

Our light aircraft flight will be with Governors Aviation, scheduled to depart from Loldia Airstrip at 10:15 am and arriving into the Masai Mara at 11:15am.
Upon arrival into the Masai Mara our private transfer will take us to our camp. After lunch, an afternoon game drive is included before returning to camp for pre-dinner drinks around the camp fire followed by a candlelit dinner in the dining tent.
The Masai Mara is legendary as the setting for the spectacular annual Great Migration: in July and August, over a million wildebeest and zebra brave the crocodiles of the Mara River to reach the fresh grasses of the savannah – where they are hunted by predators like lion, cheetah, leopard and hyena. Throughout the year, the Mara offers the most diverse wildlife in Kenya. Here you will encounter animals in the huge numbers similar to those found in the 19th century. Permanent rivers sustain wildlife through the dry seasons. The riverine forest around the Mara River supports elephant and giraffe. The abundant plains game attracts prides of lion, cheetah, leopard, hyena, jackal and the smaller nocturnal cats. Over 500 bird species – including 53 birds of prey - have been recorded in the Mara’s varied landscapes.
