Laikipia and Masai Flying Safari
Overview
This safari combines two of our favourite wildlife areas, Ol Pejeta and the Masai Mara - flying in-between to maximise your time viewing game. Ideal to add on a Mombasa or Zanzibar beach stay.
Visiting two game viewing areas gives you diversity in scenery as well as wildlife. Ol Pejeta is a thriving Conservancy in the Laikipia county area that has become famous for its Rhino Sanctuary and impressive numbers of both Black and White Rhino. The wildlife area is full of all the game you would want to view as well including Lions, Elephants and Hyena.
The Masai Mara will be your second stop. This game viewing area has it all but is particularly well known for its thriving Big Cat populations. You will be in for a real treat on every game drive.
We have a wide choice of properties for you to choose from on this safari option and can tailor to your needs, both in terms of comfort levels and by durations easily adding on extra nights or additional locations.
We highly recommend staying in a conservancy in the Masai Mara (game viewing areas adjacent to the main parks) as well as in Laikipia. These areas will showcase the same diversity of wildlife but in a quieter private environment with less vehicles making your experience far more enjoyable. A wider range of activities are also permitted in conservancies such as night drives and bush walks.
Recommended Properties to stay at are:
Porini Rhino. An award-winning eco-friendly luxury camp based in the Ol Pejeta Conservancy. The conservancy has the largest number of Rhino you will see in any East Africa game viewing area and is briming with all the big game you would want to view.
Porini Mara. Another award-winning eco-friendly luxury camp based in the Ol Kinyei Conservancy bordering the main Masia Mara Game Reserve. This large conservancy offers another secluded away from the crowd’s game viewing experience will be experienced here.
All Safari game drives will be in 4x4 purpose build safari vehicles and guided by expert qualified local drivers.
Both of these options will include all meals and drinks.
Important Luggage Restriction: Soft Sided Bags only, with max weight of 15kg. If you are heading onwards to a beach location or other safari adventure, we can store your main luggage for you during this trip.
