Day 1
Nairobi to Masai Mara – Into the Wild Heart of Kenya
Your adventure begins with a warm welcome at Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport by your personal travel consultant or at the lobby of your city Hotel. After a brief pre-tour orientation, you’ll board a scenic 4X4 Land Cruiser through the Great Rift Valley, straight into the world-famous Masai Mara with your private safari driver guide. Upon arrival, your driver guide will whisk you off for your first thrilling afternoon game drive — lions, elephants, giraffes, and endless golden plains await. Tonight, unwind in a mid-luxury lodge, surrounded by nature’s nighttime symphony.
Accommodation
Day 2
Masai Mara – Full-Day Big 5 Safari Tour
Rise early for an unforgettable sunrise game drive, with the chance to spot lions on the hunt or hyenas returning from a night’s feast. After a delicious lodge breakfast, return for mid-morning rest before setting off again for a full-day safari with a picnic lunch under an acacia tree. Optional: Soar above the Mara in a hot air balloon for awe-inspiring views and a champagne breakfast. The Mara’s pulse will stay with you forever.
Accommodation
Day 3
Masai Mara to Lake Nakuru – Flamingos and Forested Escarpments
After a hearty breakfast, bid farewell to the Mara and travel comfortably by road to Lake Nakuru, with a relaxing pit stop in Narok for stretching and refreshments. Upon arrival, enjoy lunch followed by an afternoon game drive — expect to see white rhinos grazing, tree-climbing lions, and thousands of flamingos lining the lake’s edge in vibrant pink. Settle into your lodge for a restful evening surrounded by acacia woodland.
Accommodation
Day 4
Lake Nakuru to Lake Naivasha
Start early with a morning game drive in Lake Nakuru and later return to your lodge to enjoy a leisurely morning breakfast before a short drive to the serene Lake Naivasha. Settle in, then head out for a guided boat safari among floating hippos and vibrant birdlife. Optional: Take a gentle walking safari on Sanctuary Island, where giraffes and zebras roam freely. This afternoon is yours to relax, perhaps watching the lake sparkle from your veranda as fish eagles cry above.
Accommodation
Day 5
Lake Naivasha to Amboseli
After breakfast, journey south toward Amboseli National Park with a pit stop in Nairobi for refreshments and stretching. Upon arrival, you’ll check into your lodge with views of Mount Kilimanjaro, then head out for an afternoon game drive in search of Amboseli’s famed elephant herds crossing the dusty plains. Capture golden-hour silhouettes of giraffes beneath Africa’s tallest mountain.
Accommodation
Day 6
Amboseli – Full-Day Elephant Encounters and Scenic Wonders
Spend the day immersed in Amboseli’s iconic landscape. Begin with an early game drive when wildlife is most active, then return for lunch and a siesta. In the afternoon, head out again for sightings of massive elephant families, lions, and perhaps elusive cheetahs crossing open plains. The view of elephants in front of Kilimanjaro is unforgettable.
Accommodation
Day 7
Amboseli to Watamu via Emali
Today, you transition from the savannah to the sea. After breakfast, your guide transfers you to Emali Train Station, where you’ll board a scenic Train ride to Mombasa Standard Gauge Railway (approx. 4.5 hrs). Upon arrival, meet your coastal driver and travel north to Watamu’s tranquil beaches. The warm Indian Ocean breeze welcomes you to three nights of sun and serenity.
Accommodation
Day 8
Watamu – Beach Relaxation and Indian Ocean Bliss
Enjoy a full day of relaxation. Stroll barefoot along white-sand beaches, sip fresh coconut juice under swaying palms, or dip into the calm turquoise waters. Optional: Take a glass-bottom boat ride or visit Watamu Marine National Park for snorkeling adventures. You’ve earned this bliss.
Accommodation
Day 9
Watamu – Leisure and Coastal Culture
Another peaceful day by the coast. If you wish, explore Gede Ruins or visit a local community project. Or simply let the waves and warm sun soothe you. It’s your time — your way.
Accommodation
Day 10
Watamu to Nairobi – Farewell Kenya
After a final ocean-side breakfast, transfer to Malindi or Mombasa for your return flight to Nairobi. Depending on your flight time, you may enjoy a farewell lunch or souvenir stop in Nairobi before heading to the airport — your journey ends, but the memories stay with you forever.

“Here’s What Our Customers Say”
Posted on LEAH KVerified Amazing The trip was interesting ❤️❤️❤️ and we really enjoyed the view and we are looking forward to come back again as soon as we can I can recommend any other person who is willingPosted on irene uVerified Wanna talk of a moment that you want to re-live? Professionalism at its best,the scenes were amazing.Ideal for any person who is adventurous ,definitely a place to choose over and over.Posted on master VVerified One in a million indeed good memories last and something nice leaves a mark what a day The scenery were wow very appealing it left a mark that one will wish to attend now and then due to the remarkable moments .Posted on james MVerified Higly Recommended Excellent and always on time.If you’re looking for a company that combines professionalism with a personal touch, Benuki Safaris should be at the top of your list.Posted on Awino SVerified Unforgettable Views: Serene Waters, Dramatic Cliffs, and Magical Sunsets The views at this destination are absolutely breathtaking! Crystal-clear waters meet dramatic cliffs, and the sunsets are nothing short of magical. A perfect mix of serenity and adventure, it’s an unforgettable escape from reality.Posted on Lynne CVerified Excellent Safari Company We booked our trip with Benuki Safaris and did not really know what to expect, but hoped for the best. Amazing trip is all we can say to friends that ask! First of all, we looked at several companies but found that Morris with Benuki responded quickly to all of our queries, worked with us to find the most optimal itinerary to meet our needs, and displayed the utmost professionalism right from the start. We arrived in Nairobi and we were met by a staff member that somehow managed to get us priority treatment all the way through to the van where we met Morris. We were escorted to our hotel for rest until we left on Safari. Steven was our guide and driver and he was awesome. He explained things well, knowledgable about wildlife, history, people, and culture. He was funny, prompt and amenable to our requests while on safari. They gave us the warning that we may not see animals, because it is the wilderness. We live in a wilderness area so understand the warning. However, Steven communicated with other drivers, park officials, rangers and just about anyone that gave us inside information as to where animals were hanging out. In our very first trip to Lake Nakuru we saw Lions, Leopards, White Rhinos, a Python, and so much more. Steven was polite to other drivers but still managed to get us as close as possible to animals. Masai Mara was amazing and Steven knew the area well. We added Elephants, Cheetahs, Hippos, Giraffes, Zebras, Wart Hogs, Monkeys, Baboons, and the list goes on. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with Steven to all of the parks. Our last day he drove us to the border, where he introduced us to our Tanzanian guide, Pius, and Chef DVD,(Africa Miles) all arranged ahead by Morris.*Note to make sure you have your yellow fever vaccination on a yellow international vaccination card or they will charge you $50 US to have them write it on a card. We argued, unsuccessfully that we did not need the vaccine (same price) but just the card. Still had to pay to enter the country. We switched over our gear and began our camping adventure. Pius and DVD took excellent care of us, going to Northern Serengeti, Lobos. What an incredible campsite we had, and we were very pleasantly surprised by the amazing food prepared by DVD! They both took great care to ensure we enjoyed our experience. Camping was so fun, feeling like we were immersed in the circle of life, but yet oddly safe! We awoke to zebras and buffalo nearby in a field, baboons and vervet monkeys eyeing the cookhouse, and a gorgeous sunrise. We moved to middle Serengeti, Seronera after a few days. Again, so many animals, different landscape, and slightly different adventures but all incredible. One evening there was a hippo blocking access to the men's bathroom, but adjustments were made in camp and we all got along! From there we went to Ngorongoro Crater which was truly an experience unlike the others. Wildebeests, zebras, rhinos, lions etc. Animals as far as the eye could see at one point in the journey. At the very end of our trip Pius took us to a park at Lake Manyara. This was nice scenery, and we saw a few elephants, but a letdown after seeing the amazing parks we had been through. We would recommend skipping Lake Manyara and spending additional time at Ngorongoro crater or heading to Arusha early to explore more of that town. We were escorted to our hotel, and they arranged for a ride to the airport the following day because we had booked a side adventure on our own to Zanzibar. Everyone we came into contact with was professional, friendly, and accommodating.Overall, we had an incredibly fantastic safari with Benuki! Thank you again to Morris, Steven, Pius, DVD and all the other staff that made our trip so memorable. Asante Sana!!!Posted on Explorer52712694830Verified Awesome trip to Nairobi National Park The Benuki Safari team is great! They tailor make your trip according to your requests, giving advice and good suggestions in the process. Very professional, friendly and put you in the Safar mood instantly. Due to limited time we only managed to visit the Nairobi National Park! It was a fantastic excursion! Our guide was awesome! Very knowledgeable, friendly and vibrant.Will definitely use them for our next trip. You should too :)to check out our experience visit Senewas Lens on youtubePosted on Jacqueline DVerified Safe and knowledgeable Organized, knowledgeable and safe guides! We had a wonderful Safari and visit to Kenya with our school. Benuki guides know the routes and the parks well. We saw all the animals! I would absolutely travel with them again.Posted on agordpjVerified Great experience, great drivers We were on a group with kids and parents from a school, as well as our leaders. The drivers, Steven, Gabriel and David were amazing. They took great care of us during safaris and on the trips between. There were points on the safari where it was not clear any vehicle could get through but our guys made it work and got us amazing views of the animals, but while always being safe. I had the good fortune to ride with each of them at least once and enjoyed talking and hearing their point of view about the areas we were in. I would highly recommend this company and especially these drivers.Posted on Kylie LVerified Great experience:) I used Benuki Safaris to lead a group of 20 Americans (ages ranging from 12-60 or so) on a 12 day trip to Kenya. They worked hard to get in all the activities we were interested in and kept the safari within our budget. Benuki is a newer company and working through some kinks in running a new business which led to miscommunication at times and a couple of headaches, however, they were open to feedback and worked hard to meet our needs. The guides Benuki Safaris provided us were absolutely amazing! They were fun, knowledgeable, kind, punctual and made our time with them memorable in the best way. We truly enjoyed our time in the country and many thanks go to Benuki Safaris for working so hard to manage our large group with varying needs.
