This trip begins in Nairobi, where you’ll stay at Ole Sereni, the only city hotel located next door to a game park! Next up is Borana Lodge, a deluxe hillside lodge situated within its very own ranch in the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy. And the final part of your vacation is spent at Serian The Original. The first camp within the Serian collection, all set up by famous guide Alex Walker, this property offers exceptionally good wildlife experiences in both the Mara North Conservancy and the Maasai Mara National Reserve.

Throughout your trip, you’ll have opportunities to see a lot of wildlife. You can go on game drives in Nairobi National Park, before moving on to Lewa and Mara North for further drives as well as walking safaris and a range of other activities. Each area has its own specialties, from Nairobi N.P.’s big cats and ample plains game, to Lewa’s mighty lion, elephant, and black rhino, to the Mara North’s Big Five – and more!
