Detailed Itinerary

Day 1: Nairobi to Samburu National Reserve

Your romantic safari begins with a morning transfer to Wilson Airport for a scheduled flight to Samburu National Reserve. Upon arrival, you will be met by your safari guide and transferred to your luxury camp with game viewing en route.

After lunch and some time to relax, head out for an afternoon game drive in this unique wilderness known for its rugged landscapes and rare wildlife species. Watch the sunset over the Ewaso Nyiro River before returning to camp for a candlelit dinner under the African sky.

Accommodation: Sasaab Lodge
Meals: Lunch & Dinner

Wake up to the sounds of the African wilderness and enjoy an early morning game drive when wildlife is most active. Samburu is home to the famous Samburu Special Five—Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, Beisa oryx, Somali ostrich, and gerenuk—as well as elephants, lions, and leopards.

Spend the day exploring the reserve together while enjoying personalized safari experiences and breathtaking photography opportunities. In the evening, enjoy sundowners in the bush followed by a romantic dinner at camp.

Accommodation: Sasaab Lodge
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

After breakfast, board a scenic flight to Laikipia, one of Kenya’s most exclusive wildlife conservancies. Upon arrival, transfer to your luxury lodge nestled within a private conservancy renowned for conservation and exceptional wildlife experiences.

Enjoy an afternoon game drive across vast wilderness areas where wildlife roams freely. 

The conservancy offers intimate safari experiences away from crowds, making it ideal for couples seeking privacy and exclusivity.

Accommodation: Segera Retreat
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

Spend the day discovering Laikipia’s diverse wildlife and stunning landscapes. The conservancy offers unique experiences such as guided bush walks, night game drives, rhino tracking, and conservation activities.

With fewer vehicles and exclusive access to wildlife areas, couples can enjoy intimate wildlife encounters and uninterrupted views of Kenya’s spectacular wilderness. End the day with a private sundowner overlooking the plains.

Accommodation: Segera Retreat
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

After an early breakfast at your lodge in Laikipia Conservancy, you will be transferred to the airstrip for your scheduled flight to the Maasai Mara ecosystem. 

The flight offers breathtaking aerial views of the Great Rift Valley, rolling highlands, and vast wilderness corridors as you descend into the Mara region.

Upon landing at the Mara airstrip, you will be met by your professional safari guide and begin a scenic transfer game drive toward the Olare Motorogi Conservancy. 

This first drive is not just a transfer but your initial introduction to the Maasai Mara ecosystem, with chances to spot elephants, giraffes, zebras, and possibly predators along the way.

Arriving at your luxury camp, you will be welcomed with refreshing drinks and a warm towel before settling into your tent or villa. 

After lunch and a short rest, you will head out for an afternoon and sunset game drive within the private Olderkesi Conservancy, a low-density wildlife area bordering the Serengeti ecosystem.

As the sun sets, the landscape transforms into golden light, offering excellent photography opportunities and increased predator activity. 

You return to camp for a candlelit dinner under the stars, accompanied by the sounds of the African wilderness.

Accommodation: Cottar’s 1920s Camp 

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

Today is dedicated to a full immersion safari experience in the Olderkesi Conservancy, designed to follow wildlife movement rather than fixed routes.

You will begin early with a sunrise game drive when predators are most active, and the air is cool and crisp over the savannah.

 

The conservancy offers exceptional flexibility, including off-road driving where permitted, allowing your guide to track wildlife more closely than in the main reserve. 

Depending on the season, you may encounter elephants moving between grazing areas, lion prides resting near riverine forests, or cheetahs scanning the plains for prey.

Mid-morning may include a return to camp for breakfast or a bush breakfast setup in the wild. After relaxation during the heat of the day, you will set out again in the afternoon for another extended game drive. 

This session often focuses on predator activity as animals become more active in the cooler hours.

If conditions allow, you may extend your experience toward the wider Maasai Mara ecosystem boundaries, where migration herds may be present depending on the season.

The day ends with a classic African sunset over the savannah, followed by a return to camp for dinner and storytelling around the fire.

Accommodation: Cottar’s 1920s Camp
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

Enjoy a leisurely breakfast and perhaps a final game drive before transferring to the airstrip for your scheduled flight back to Nairobi.

Upon arrival at Wilson Airport, you will be transferred to your hotel or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your onward flight, concluding your unforgettable luxury fly-in safari through Kenya’s most iconic wildlife destinations.
