Wings Over Kenya is the ultimate safari, offering luxury without compromise. It visits three exceptional wildlife conservancies in the country: Samburu in arid northern Kenya, Ol Pejeta private conservancy in mountainous central Kenya, and the magical Masai Mara – the finest wildlife sanctuary in Africa, unbeatable for the wildlife experience it offers on its vast savannah grasslands. This spectacular journey has you travelling by light aircraft on longer sectors, with a private guide and safari vehicle transporting you in between.
Day by day
Nairobi
Welcome to Kenya! On your arrival in Nairobi, a Wildlife Safari representative will meet and assist you through immigration and customs before your road transfer by private vehicle to Hemingways Nairobi. Here you’ll enjoy a ‘welcome’ safari briefing, with rest of day at leisure.
Samburu
Enjoy breakfast at the hotel before a road transfer to Wilson Domestic Airport for your light aircraft flight into Samburu National Reserve. On arrival, transfer to Elephant Bedroom Camp, set in the shade of palm trees on the bank of the Ewaso Nyiro River. Take some time to unpack and relax before heading out on your first game drive in the late afternoon. End the day off overlooking the river, relishing your dinner.
Samburu
Set off on an early morning and afternoon game drive in your 4×4 safari vehicle, taking in the beautiful Samburu landscape with its dry plains, meandering rivers and distant Mount Kenya in the background. Keep an eye out for the Samburu Special Five; beisa oryx, reticulated giraffe, Grevy’s zebra, gerenuk and Somali ostrich. At camp, kick back and relax before savouring a sundowner as the cool evening air filters in and the creatures of the night come to life. Enjoy dinner and a crackling campfire.
Ol Pejeta
Enjoy an early breakfast, then depart by road to Ol Pejeta wildlife sanctuary, famed for its pioneering wildlife conservancy. Arrive at Sweetewaters Serena Camp, an oasis set around a floodlit waterhole in this private wildlife sanctuary that overlooks Mt Kenya. Take some time to settle in before heading out on a game drive to experience the large game density that the conservancy offers. Return to camp and enjoy dinner at the old farmhouse.
Ol Pejeta
Wake up – not only for some extraordinary game viewing – but you’ll also be paying a visit to the only chimpanzee sanctuary in Kenya, where abandoned and rescued chimps are rehabilitated. Returning to the lodge, treat yourself to a cold drink at the Waterhole Bar, offering stunning views of the waterhole and the animals that frequent it. Enjoy dinner at the lodge, overlooking the floodlit waterhole.
Masai Mara
Enjoy breakfast and depart by vehicle to Nanyuki airstrip from your light aircraft into the Masai Mara. Governors Camp will be awaiting your arrival at the airstrip and transfer you Governors’ Camp, resting peacefully in a riverine forest on the banks of the Mara River. Settle into your classic safari-style tent, freshen up and head out on your first game drive into the Masai Mara. Enjoy dinner before ending the day around the crackling campfire.
Masai Mara
Enjoy two full days, in your 4×4 game viewing vehicle, for some of the Masai Mara’s exceptional game viewing. Witness the sun rising over the savannah grasslands, the silhouette of giraffe, elephant, wildebeest – and many more – on the horizon. Return to camp for lunch and leisure before you’re back on the vehicle for your next game drive with endless opportunities, a predator stalking its prey, a fish eagle calling over the river or a calf being born, who knows what’s lying in wait. Enjoy dinner at the camp and end the day under the starry African sky.
Depart
After breakfast at Governors’ Camp, enjoy a final morning game drive en route to the airstrip for your flight to Wilson Airport. A Wildlife Safari representative will meet and transfer you to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your onward trip.

Destinations on this trip
Kenya has as good a claim as anywhere to being the country where modern safaris began, and where they’re done best, and it still regularly features high on travel magazines ‘must-visit’ lists. Kenya has been doing what it does best for decades, and yet there’s always something new to discover on Kenya safaris.
Samburu is the ‘other Kenya’ – this semi-arid region in the north of the country feels very different to say the Masai Mara or Amboseli. It’s much drier and the scenery is more rugged. Even the wildlife is different, with species that aren’t found elsewhere in Kenya. What’s not to enjoy about Samburu safaris?
Ol Pejeta is a pioneering wildlife conservancy in Laikipia – Kenya’s high country. With the emphasis firmly on species conservation, Ol Pejeta safaris offer not only exceptional opportunities to view species that are scarce elsewhere, but also to learn about, contribute to and even participate in ground-breaking and impactful conservation projects.
The place that launched a thousand clips, and millions of images. There’s no more iconic safari destination than Kenya’s Masai Mara, with its eponymous tribespeople, millions of thundering hooves, and equal parts drama, magic and romance. Kenya itineraries without Masai Mara safaris are almost unthinkable, and every moment spent there is unforgettable.
