Tour Overview

This 9-days Bush And Beach safari combines Kenya's Lake Nakuru National Park, a treat for birdwatchers and a rhino sanctuary with the legendary Masai Mara National Reserve. Get the best of both worlds on this adventurous road and air safari. Your trip begins with a 3-hour drive northwest of Kenya's capital, Nairobi to Lake Nakuru National Park. Lake Nakuru is bird- and animal watchers’ haven. The Park has over 400 bird species. These include, herons, pelicans, storks and the conic African fish eagle. Lake Nakuru is also home to a vast number of mammals (56 species) including a healthy population of the highly endangered rhino. The Park has four of the Big Five (Lion, Leopard, Buffalo and Rhino) except the Elephant. Expect to see tree-climbing Lion, Cheetahs, Python, Hyenas, Jackal, Rothschilds giraffes, zebra, hippo, impala, waterbuck, and plenty of baboons and monkeys. After a night in Lake Nakuru we get back on the road and make our way to our next game-viewing destination in Kenya, the world-famous Masai Mara Game Reserve. We spend 3 nights in the Mara on morning and afternoon game drives in search of Africa’s Big Five and the plethora of other wildlife. The Maasai Mara is home to the Masai giraffe, Baboons, Warthogs, Bat-eared foxes, grey jackals, spotted Hyena, Topi, Impala, Hartebeests, Wildebeest, Elephants, Buffalos, Zebra, Hippo, Cheetah. The ultimate action here is without a doubt the annual wildebeest exodus, the Great Migration. In August and September millions of these grazers move north from the Serengeti in search of lusher grass before turning south again in October. After your game-viewing adventure in Masai Mara, we fly to Mombasa and spend the next four days enjoying the sunshine and the warm Indian Ocean at a beach resort near Mombasa, on the coast of East Africa. Relax on the sandy beaches and dip in the sea, taking it easy after our action-packed game viewing in Kenya's finest wildlife areas. You can also enjoy optional (extra cost) activities and water sports in and around Mombasa, a chaotic melting pot of Indian, Arabic and African influences.

Kenya Wildlife Safari

I visited Kenya between 21 Feb 2020 and 29 Feb 2020 The whole trip was very enjoyable, with some excellent wildlife sightings, good accommodation and delicious food. It met all our hopes and expectations for going out on foot, driving after dark and generally being flexible with the activities on offer. As Oliver Twist might say, please can we do it some more? The service was more than satisfactory, thanks to the team of safari experts at Royal Private Safaris! -Michelle Martini

December 2021 Kenya Safari

11-Feb-2022

Kenya was the most genuine, helpful, kind, place I have ever visited. It was like stepping into another world. Everyone was wonderful; Kenya has definitely taken conservation and hospitality to the next level. I believe that Kenya is the best place to visit in all of Africa. Definitely something that nature lovers have to put on their bucket list. When Isaac organized this trip, he used the word "bespoke". We had no idea what that meant. We do now and will be forever grateful. He did an amazing job. I have done planned tours before where I felt that I could have planned the same trip and saved money. But on this one, I was quite certain that I could never have done what Isaac did, and it was absolutely magical. I highly recommended Royal Private Safaris! -Dave Henry

We have travelled to the Maasai Mara National Reserve several times. But this was the first time that we were using Royal Private Safaris! Our experience was extremely positive. Everything was very well-organised and effectively executed. The arrangements on the ground were flawless. This made for a relaxing and worry-free trip. We would definitely book with Royal Private Safaris again!

Our dream come true safari!

19-Dec-2021

We visited Kenya between 4th Dec 2020 and 19th Dec 2020. Our trip to Africa was truly a dream come true! We planned this trip two years in advance, and due to Covid-19 needed to replan the trip again, with endless back and forth to ensure we got the itinerary to a place that met the regulations and restrictions of each country. Our trip exceeded every expectation, and while we initially thought it was going to be a once in a lifetime trip, we are already talking about when we will return. Isaac helped to organise the trip and make the endless changes for us. Overall, the trip was one we will never forget, and we are beyond grateful to Isaac and Royal Private Safaris for all of their assistance in planning. I am currently working as a medical volunteer in rural Kenya for two months thereafter I intend to do another safari before I travel back to Australia. -Rachel Robinson

Nothern Kenya Safari

A thoroughly enjoyable trip to Laikipia and Lewa Downs, Comfortable accommodation, food and service with very friendly staff at each site. That was back in April 2018. Royal Private Safaris Guides were very knowledgeable and with excellent eyesight at each location. 46 species of animal and 175 species of birds seen!

Masai Mara National Reserve

16-Sep-2021

We had another terrific time in early February 2020 despite the weather being a lot wetter than we had imagined for the time of year. The fact that we had some superb sightings is very much down to the expertise of the guides employed by Royal Private Safaris. The Lodge was excellent and provided exactly what we expected, comfortable & fantastic food!! Many thanks to Isaac and Sarah for yet again putting together an excellent trip in the Maasai Mara National Reserve. -Nabuso Vivian
