Over seven days, the Walking & Classic Safari blends active exploration with traditional game drives through Kenya’s wilderness. From Nairobi, you’ll travel to key reserves such as Aberdare or Mount Kenya, tracking wildlife on foot with experienced guides, then continue to Maasai Mara for classic safari drives. The walking segments bring you close to nature—tracking spoor, observing plants, insects, birds, and subtle ecosystem detail. At Mara, the pace shifts to vehicle drives across sweeping plains, spotting the Big Five and abundant wildlife. Nights are spent in comfortable lodges or camps, with full board service, local cuisine, and deeply immersive natural encounters at every turn.
Guided walking safaris in forests and bushland reveal smaller creatures, tracks, plant life, and ecosystem layers missed in vehicle tours.
Classic game drives in the Maasai Mara and reserves deliver big wildlife sightings: lions, elephants, buffalo, zebra, and predator-prey interactions.
Stay in comfortable lodges or tented camps with meals, expert guides, cultural visits, and scenic transfers between wild landscapes.
A combination of foot-based exploration and vehicle drives offers a deeper connection with nature and varied safari experiences.
