Enjoy this amazing safari in a customized open-sided Natural World 4×4 Safari Jeep that includes: Cooler Box, long-range high-frequency radio, Power Outlets AC 230V, First Aid Kit, and above all, a professional multi-lingual safari guide who will ensure you have an unforgettable safari experience.

You’ll cover so much ground on this specially designed safari… both throughout the breadth of Kenya and in the parks themselves as you fly to your destinations. Road trips are fun but why drive when you can spend more time in the parks by flying in. Which would you rather do?

You’ll fly in from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport to the lions, leopards, and elephants of Samburu National Park in just 90 minutes. From there, this fly-in safari will have you winging into the world-famous Masai Mara National Reserve, one of the richest ecosystems in Africa. All the big cats, plus thousands of grazers fill the picturesque Mara lands.

Then we’ll wrap up with a scenic flight back to Nairobi where you’ll take in the great park and most of Kenya from the air – a perfect way to finish your Africa safari.

From Nairobi to Samburu

We’ll pick you up and bring you to nearby Wilson Airport for the quick trip north to Samburu Park. Enjoy the morning light from the air as you take in Kenya’s fields, forests, and the great form of Mt. Kenya.

You’ll touch down at Samburu where a Natural World Kenya Safaris driver/guide will greet you with a private, open-sided 4 x 4 Land Cruiser. Hop aboard and we’ll get you settled at your Samburu accommodation.

This big park is popular but not overly touristed so you’ll often feel like you’ve got the place to yourself… that is, you and the over 1,000 elephants that roam these broad fields. All the big game make their home here and we’ll be looking for lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino, and unusual and endangered species like the Beisa oryx, and gerenuk.

Samburu is also home to the Samburu people, indigenous communities closely related to the Maasai. We can visit their villages and learn about their culture firsthand.

On to the Masai Mara

We’ll hop aboard our next plane for the scenic trip flight south to the Masai Mara where our second guide will meet us. It’s a quick run to the great park in our private 4 x 4 Land Cruiser. After freshening up and enjoying lunch, we’ll embark on our first game drive on our four-day span in the park.

The look here is greener than at Samburu and you’ll love the distinctive acacia trees accenting the park’s deep rolling hills. The game sightings will be varied and plentiful as the Mara is known for its many lions, cheetahs, leopards, and other predators.

Have you heard of the Great Migration? If you are here from July through October, you’ll witness incredible hordes of grazers – wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles pouring into the park on their yearly trek for food and water.

Over your four days in the park, you’ll see the wildlife from dozens of viewpoints and learn about this great and active natural environment. And then, we’ll wing back to Nairobi on your final flight enjoying Kenya from the air.
