Itinerary in detail

Every trip is tailored to your personal preferences and interests. Below you’ll find a sample itinerary to inspire your own custom-designed journey.

Days 1–2

One night in Nairobi

Once you’ve cleared customs and immigration, your representative will meet you at Nairobi Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. The capital city of Kenya is a busy one, and can be slightly overwhelming at first, but your private guide is the perfect person to introduce you to the country as you drive to your hotel. Away from the city centre, suburbs such as Karen, named after Karen Blixen, are wonderful places and there are a variety of interesting attractions such as The Daphine Sheldrick Rhino and Elephant Orphanage and the Giraffe Centre, and the Nairobi National Park. Tomorrow you’ll take a light aircraft flight to the Mara.

Days 2–6

Into Big Five territory

Home to the Great Migration, where each year between July and October millions of wildebeest thunder across the plains in search of fresh pasture, the Maasai Mara is one of the most famous game reserves in the world. From Novemeber to June, the Maasai Mara still has one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in Africa so the Big Five can all be ticked off your list on a visit here, and you’ll also get to see huge pods of hippos basking in the rivers, cheetahs racing across the savannah and giraffes ambling between the acacia trees.

Hot air balloon safari over the Maasai Mara

A highlight of your time here is certain to be a stunning scenic hot air balloon flight over the Maasai Mara. It’s the perfect way to really appreciate its scale and gain a unique bird’s-eye view of the game below. A champagne bush breakfast awaits you upon landing. At the end of your stay in the Maasai Mara you’ll take a light aircraft flight from the Mara Airstrip to Wilson Airport.

Days 6–7

Overnight in Nairobi

Spend another night in the Kenyan capital before your flight to Zambia in the morning.

Days 7–10

Mosi-ou-Tunya

The mighty Victoria Falls rank as one of the most spectacular sites in all of Africa. As the mighty Zambezi River crashes over sheer cliffs onto the rocks below it sprays a cloud of water high into the air that has earned it the local name of Mosi-oa-Tunya (literally translated as ‘the smoke that thunders’). Livingstone is the town found on the Zambian side of the water, and luxury hotels either in the town or somewhere alongside the Zambezi upstream are a great base from which to fully explore this magnificent spectacle.

Days 10–15

Meet the Mother City

One of the most beautiful cities in the world, Cape Town is a city that can really take your breath away. The horizon dominated by the iconic table-top mountain rising up in the background, whilst in the foreground are the crisp waters of the cape, the laid-back bustle of the city’s waterfront skirted by sandy beaches and picturesque suburbs.
