ADVENTURE SAFARIS

Winding Trails Adventure Safari

14 Days - A wonderful mixture of adventure and culture, our Winding Trails Adventure Safari will give you an in-depth understanding of Kenya and its people. Expect to visit some of the best-managed ecotourism and community ventures. With nearly 1,000 shareholders from the Taita community, most of who reside around Mount Kasigau, Kasigau Ranch, for example, provides an extraordinary opportunity for volunteers and visitors to interact with wildlife and the communities that host them. In this way, visitors like you give the communities the much needed incentive to conserve wildlife. This unique experience takes you to remote areas beyond the conventional tourist itinerary, as you appreciate the beauty and splendor of wild Africa.

Lake Nakuru National park
We wake up to a sumptuous breakfast before leaving for a two-hour drive that gets us to Lake Nakuru where we have the chance to see the greatest bird spectacle in the world. A million or so flamingoes, beside pelicans and cormorants make Lake Nakuru a bird lover's paradise. A game drive through the various habitats of the park will certainly reveal why the park earned its status as a RAMSAR site as well as one of the best performing Rhino sanctuaries in Africa. Picnic lunch at the baboon cliff with a panoramic view of the lake. Overnight Malu (B, L, D)
Day 4: Naivasha Morning at leisure. In the afternoon we could opt for a boat ride in the nearby Lake Naivasha. The only fresh water Rift Valley lake in Kenya, we undertake a memorable hippo cruise spiced with bird watching opportunities. Dinner and overnight in Malu (B, L, D)
Days 5 and 6
Amboseli National Park

We start our day with a hearty breakfast. At 0700hrs, grab our lunch boxes and drive to the world’s renowned Amboseli National Park, nestled on the foothills of Mt. Kilimanjaro on the southern border of Kenya and Tanzania. For the next two days, we’ll have an in-depth exploration of the Amboseli in the company of our crew who will delightfully share with us the intrigues of the Amboseli. During our morning and evening game drives expect to see huge herds of elephants wallowing in the swamp, giraffes, buffaloes, lions among others against the spectacular backdrop of the snow capped roof of Africa; Mt. Kilimanjaro. We enjoy an excellent cuisine and overnight at the Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge (B, L, D)

Day 7: Tsavo West National Park Today after breakfast (0800hrs), we say kwaheri (farewell) to our hosts and the Amboseli and drive to Tsavo West National Park checking in at the Kilaguni Safari lodge in time for lunch.

Tsavo East National Park

We spend two days delving into this pristine wilderness in search of the beasts and a wide variety of brightly painted birds against a scenic backdrop of the shapely Taita hills and the Nyika plateau. All meals at the Voi Wildlife lodge with a panoramic view of the lodge’s waterhole where the beasts gather for a refreshing drink. On our last evening in Tsavo, we may opt for a game drive or visit the David Sheldrick Trust to spend some time with baby elephants as they prepare to get back to the wild (Please note that this visit is only open to foster parents. To become a foster parent, kindly visit The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Overnight Voi Wildlife lodge (B, L, D).

Diani

Capping off more than a week of breath-taking safari, you embark on a two-hour drive to the coastal town of Mombasa, and onto the South Coast via a ferry crossing at Likoni and check into the Indian Ocean Beach club. You may swim in the warm waters of the Indian Ocean, bask on the white sandy beach, jet ski, scuba dive, windsurf, and cruise to the reef in a glass-bottom boat for a fascinating glimpse of the coral gardens and other marine life. Another popular attraction is Fort Jesus, a 400-year-old fortress built by the Portuguese before the First World War as a stronghold to the entrance of Mombasa Harbor. The ancient fort constitutes a stunning example of sixteenth-century military architecture that has survived centuries of attack and conquest. Gazetted as a national museum, today the fort clearly represents ancient Arab and Swahili culture. (B, D)
