Where Tranquil Safaris’ other Kenya trips leave the lodge open, this one names each property, and they sit at the upper end: Hemingways on the edge of Nairobi, Tortilis Camp in a private conservancy within Amboseli, Sarova Lion Hill above Lake Nakuru and Mara Serena inside the reserve.

The route itself is the familiar one — Amboseli under Kilimanjaro, then down the Rift Valley to Nakuru for the flamingos and rhino, then west to the Mara for the last two nights. A Maasai village afternoon is included in Amboseli, and a balloon flight over the Mara is offered as a paid extra on the final full day.

Overview

A lodge-led week: a night outside Nairobi, two in a private conservancy in Amboseli, one above Lake Nakuru and two inside the Maasai Mara.

  • Where you go: Amboseli National Park, Lake Nakuru National Park, Maasai Mara National Reserve, Nairobi
