Day 1-3 Game drives in Saruni Samburu Camp

Touching down, you will be met at the airport and transferred by charter to Saruni Samburu, where you can be as chilled or as active as you like. This super-chic, eco-friendly lodge is in the private Kalama Conservancy in Kenya's Samburu Nature Reserve. See the "Samburu Five", a handful of rare animals endemic to this ecosystem – gerenuk, reticulated giraffe, Somali ostrich, Grevy's zebra and Beisa oryx, and a host of other species your Masai warrior guide will identify. Day and night drives are offered, exploring the sights at Kalama Conservancy, Buffalo Springs National Park and Samburu National Park. Guided walks investigate the bush and find the birds you've been wanting to check on your tick list. For the kids there is also the oppertunity to learn bush skills at the Warrior Academy. Topping all this, have breakfast beside the Ewas Ng'iro River or dine beneath the stars.

Day 4-6 Relax at this secluded lodge in

You will be transferred by air to Saruni Mara Camp in the Mara North Conservancy, a private wilderness covering more than 30,000 hectares outside the Masai Mara Reserve. The sanctuary is a partnership between conservationists, investors and 800-plus Masai landowners. The camp is directly in the path of the Great Migration (July to November) and the less well-known Loita Hills migration (December to May), which sees thousands of wildebeest arriving at the conservancy. So there's plenty to see and, to top it all, this boutique lodge offers top-quality service. Take night drives through the Mara Conservancy, investigate the surrounding forest and valleys on foot, with a guide, to see the smaller creatures and some of the Masai Mara's 550+ bird species. If you're travelling with children, the Masai-run Warriors Academy offers special courses in bush skills and animal tracking. Hike up Kilelioni, the highest peak in the Mara–Serengeti and visit the Masai market, held every Thursday.
