More Details

Your Kenya family safari begins in Nairobi, where you will enjoy a peaceful overnight at Hemingways Nairobi

Next, transfer to Ol Pejeta Conservancy — one of the last refuges for the rare black and white rhinos. While here, witness an enormous amount of wildlife and game throughout the Ewaso Nyiro River ecosystem. Furthermore, you will experience it all from your interactive and eco-friendly tented suite at Ol Pejeta Bush Camp.

Owned and managed by Alex Hunter, he made it his passion to expose young minds to the safari world. Therefore, spend two days on game drives, bush walks, and behind-the-scenes tours with Alex and his experienced guides through the Ol Pejeta Conservancy.

This safari realm acts as a Big Five playground and a sanctuary. Therefore, endangered species like the Jackson’s hartebeest, Grevy’s zebra, cheetah, chimpanzee, and rhino are protected around the clock.

Continue on to your next Kenya family safari destination, where your family cottage awaits at Saruni Samburu. This stylish and intimate safari lodge resides within a 240,000-acre private wildlife conservancy just north of Samburu National Reserve.

From your eco-chic, open-air cottage at the top of the Kalama Mountains, you will have spectacular views. The wonder of northern Kenya and the multiple wildlife magnet waterholes below become a daily view.

This offers the best African safari for families off the beaten path. But, it is also a place where game activities, village visits, and excursions to painted caves are all on the agenda.

The final stop of your Kenya Family Safari sits within the Masai Mara, one of Africa’s most famous and game rich areas. Saruni Mara House will act as your private bush home during your stay, allowing for a fully-catered stay with a customizable and relaxing schedule for soaking in the wildlife just outside the front door.

Don’t be surprised if breakfast is a family affair for the animals too. This is because generations of zebra, elephant, giraffe, impala, baboons, and warthog congregate at the famous Ol Chorro waterhole nearby.

Venturing beyond the house, private guides lead day and night game drives. Their contagious passion for the region easily rubs off on any guest, young or old. Your childrens' sense of wonder ignites as they learn bush-wise facts, traditional games, and incredible stories of life in the bush. Indeed, the memories made will stay with them as they fall asleep to the night sounds of the Mara’s animals.
