A Migration Season Special

Going on safari in Kenya at the time when the migration is in the Masai Mara is brilliant but difficult unless you book well ahead. Most of the camps and lodges are booked up early in the year. We are therefore very pleased to have on offer a great itinerary which includes the Masai Mara, as well as Amboseli and Ol Pejeta Conservancy. Between the three reserves, you will have fantastic wildlife viewing opportunities, and the accommodation we've arranged is charming. We've gone for luxury eco-sensitive tented camps, all of which offer excellent service, and have very good positions.

You can read more about the Mara and Amboseli by clicking on regions on the right. We have not yet written a page for Ol Pejeta, so here are a few details:

Ol Pejeta Conservancy is a 90,000 acre wildlife conservancy situated between the foot hills of the Aberdares and the magnificent snowcapped Mount Kenya. It boasts an astounding variety of animals including the non-indigenous chimpanzees and the big 5 (the endangered black rhino, leopard, elephant, buffalo and lion). The combination of amazing wildlife and stunning views across the open plains of Ol Pejeta guarantees an unforgettable safari experience.

This trip is subject to availablity as always, so get in quickly if you want to take up this holiday for this year's migration season.

This is a tailor made holiday which can be taken at any time of year but best for the migration in the Mara from July to October, subject to availability.

Pricing guidelines for Kenya

  • Open Panel 

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £400 to £800 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). Kenya combines well with Tanzania or Uganda.

For each accommodation on this website you will find an indication of the price. The bands are based on the price per person per night at peak season and are represented by the following values for this country:

  £50 to £150
