About this trip
Six days on the road covering three of Kenya's best-known parks, on a budget-friendly safari built for those who want the classics without the frills.
You start at Amboseli, where elephant herds move against the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro, before heading to Lake Nakuru to see its flamingo-lined shores. The safari finishes in the Masai Mara, with a real shot at spotting the Big Five and the big cats that draw people here.
It's a fully guided group trip, easy-paced and straightforward, with the parks doing the talking.
