Overview

Go on your own personal migration across Kenya, with each step of the way being an opportunity for extraordinary game viewing under expert guidance, usually by Masaai or Samburu rangers.

After resting up in Nairobi after a long haul flight, fly south-east to Mount Kilimanjaro and the great elephant herds of Amboseli National Park, to the true African style of spacious tents at Tortilis Camp. Sleep the sleep of the enchanted after a day's game viewing and a relaxing massage, followed by a fine meal. Sad to leave but excited to move on, you head into the dry Northern Frontier District, to the land of the enigmatic Samburu, where the Elephant Bedroom is your home. You will be forgiven for thinking you have packed up all your creature comforts and gone back into the past, so remote and unspoilt is this spectacular location.

Your last stop is Ilkeliani Camp in the Masai Mara, nestled in riverine forest. This is the home of vast herds of plains game, followed always by hungry predators. And for you, delicious food, campfires by night and stargazing to end off perfect days.

Fresh from the herds of elephant roaming the fertile land around Kili, you will be transferred to Samburu National Reserve, with Elephant Bedroom Camp as your destination. The camp is set on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River, under the welcome shade of green riverine forest. The river cuts through the dry Samburu region with its spectacular scenery and rocky cliffs. Here you feel far from civilisation but with every possible luxury at your fingertips.

The open-sided tents are as close to sleeping under the stars as you can get. Elephants, monkeys and antelope visit in camp; shyer animals are spotted on game drives or guided walks, under the expert guidance of Samburu warriors. Learn more about their tribal folklore and lifestyle with a village visit on day five, snooze in your hammock, sip a cocktail on the game viewing deck, or have a massage. Then marvel as the gods fling their stars across the vast velvet sky before retiring for another night of peaceful sleep.

The private conservancy experience outside Amboseli offers more diverse activities before you head into the park for the famous Kilimanjaro view. Look out for the unique animals of the Samburu, before ending off with the Masai Mara, known for its excellent concentration of game large population of Big Cats. This is a great for a first Kenyan safari.
