Kenya’s most famous national reserve is part of the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem. This natural paradise is home to a large population of big cats, herds of herbivores and the unmistakable landscape of the African savannah, as well as the ‘great migration’ which takes place between August and September.

This wildlife reserve is home to species more adapted to semi-desert environments such as the oryx. Native species include the reticulated giraffe and the Grévy’s zebra. It is the territory of the Samburu people, who you’ll have the opportunity to meet and learn from.

The iconic photograph of elephants with Kilimanjaro in the background attracts many to Amboseli. And while getting this exact image requires a lot of luck, the park is still one of the most photogenic places in Africa, brimming with opportunities for the perfect image.

In central Kenya we find a plateau where several private conservation reserves rich in wildlife have been established. An ideal stopover on the way to Samburu and before exploring the Masai Mara.
