Before you ask

When is the best time for a Kenya safari?

June to October is the dry season and the migration is in the Masai Mara, which makes it the most popular window. January and February are also dry, clear and good for game viewing with fewer vehicles. The long rains in April and May are the quietest and cheapest months, and the parks are green.

Do I need a visa for Kenya?

Most visitors need an Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA), applied for online before you fly. For the cross-border routes into Tanzania you will also need a Tanzanian visa, which most nationalities can get on arrival at the Isebania border or online in advance. We send a checklist with your booking confirmation.

Can you change the itinerary?

Yes. Every route on this site is a starting point. Swap a park, add nights, change lodges or combine two routes: tell us what you want and we quote for that.

What kind of vehicle will we be in?

A safari-converted 4x4 or minibus with a pop-up roof for game viewing, driven by a professional English-speaking driver-guide who stays with you for the whole trip.

What should I pack?

Neutral-coloured layers, a warm jacket for early mornings, comfortable closed shoes, a hat, sunscreen, binoculars and a camera with a decent zoom. Soft bags rather than hard suitcases are easier in the vehicle.

Is a safari suitable for children?

Yes, and the lodges we use welcome families. Long drive days are the main thing to plan around, so for younger children we suggest the shorter routes or adding a rest day at Lake Naivasha.
