Experience the essence of Kenya's wilderness with the "Kenya Wings over the Wilderness Safari." Departing from Nairobi, this thoughtfully curated safari immerses you in the untouched beauty of Kenya's wild landscapes. From the rugged terrain of Samburu to the vast expanses of the Maasai Mara, each day unfolds a new adventure. Travel by scheduled light aircraft, allowing the sky to guide you as you explore nature's rhythm. This journey promises a safari and an unforgettable flight into the heart of Kenya's pristine beauty.
Your journey starts at Wilson Airport, where you'll board a scheduled light aircraft to the Samburu Game Reserve.
Upon landing, you will be transferred to Soroi Larsens Camp, arriving just in time for lunch. In the afternoon, embark on an exciting game drive to discover the untamed beauty of Samburu. Afterward, return to camp for a peaceful night beneath the African sky.
For the next two days, immerse yourself in the tranquil wilderness of Samburu with morning and afternoon game drives. Traverse the rugged terrain and encounter the diverse wildlife unique to this region.
The Game Drive Experience
Samburu National Reserve is famous for its distinctive "Samburu Special 5" species, which are native to Northern Kenya. These species include the rare Grevy's Zebra, Somali Ostrich, Beisa Oryx, Gerenuk, and the stunning reticulated giraffe. Choose a morning or afternoon game drive to witness the uniqueness of this wildlife.
Sundowner Experience
After an exciting evening safari, you will be escorted to a raised viewing platform near Larsen's Camp. From there, you can enjoy the sunset behind the Koitogo Hills while indulging in a cocktail of your choice and healthy canapés.
Birdwatching in Camp
With over 400 native bird species, Samburu is a haven for birdwatchers. Accompanied by our knowledgeable local bird guide, you will explore the Ewaso Nyiro river forest line to spot unique northern species like the Somali bee-eater and Somali ostrich, among others. This excursion offers a perfect opportunity to expand your birding list.
Bid farewell to the enchanting Samburu as you embark on a scheduled light aircraft transfer to the Maasai Mara, where the elegant Soroi Luxury Migration Camp awaits. As the late afternoon unfolds, indulge in an exquisite game drive through the heart of the Mara, with the sun casting its golden hues across the plains.
For the next two days, immerse yourself in the unparalleled luxury of the Maasai Mara, exploring its vast and majestic landscapes on exclusive game drives. Encounter the illustrious Big Five and, if your visit coincides with the season from July to October, marvel at the awe-inspiring spectacle of the Great Migration.

Nicole at Safari.com is AMAZING!!!
I would love to share my experience with Nicole. She has worked tirelessly to help me make my dream vacation a reality. I had no idea how to start planning. Nicole suggested the most wonderful South African resorts and safaris. No matter how many changes I threw her way it was always received with a happy, positive attitude. I live in Hawaii and even though we were on a 12 hour time difference she was always available to answer any questions or concerns. Her expertise, knowledge and patience are unmeasurable. I was plagued with numerous payment issues from my bank in Hawaii. Nicole never wavered from being patience and more importantly positive that we could resolve each issue and get my trip booked. Nicole is a huge asset to Safari.com and I will scream it from the mountains to let everyone know what excellent customer service I have received. Nicole is a ROCKSTAR!!! We are so excited for our upcoming adventure of a lifetime!

Nicole at Safari.com
It was a pleasure to work with Nicole from Safari.com to secure our hotel stay at the Palace of the Lost City. Communication with Nicole was excellent, and she always kept us updated on the process of booking our dream vacation. She was even able to reserve the suite we wanted at a discounted rate! I would highly recommend Nicole and Safari.com to book your next dream safari adventure.

Trip to Kruger at Mdluli Safari Lodge
I loved working with Anja from safari.com. She put together my itinerary within my price range and was very professional, thorough and empathetic. She followed up with me many times to see if I needed anything throughout my trip and even filled out some forms for me when I was having difficulty. When the lodge I stayed at was not being accommodating in the slightest, she quickly contacted the manager and got them to rearrange their services to meet my needs. I would most certainly use safari.com again due to my wonderful experience working with Anja.

Very good experience with getting quotes
I didn’t end up booking with safari.com but I did have a great experience with their consultant, Leigh-Ann Croeser. I originally wanted to book a safari at a specific lodge but it was not available for the dates we wanted. She offered suggestions and helped us secure holds on other dates. She worked hard and sent several follow up emails as she was able to hold some dates for available rooms at the original lodge! We did end up booking with another safari tour company as I sent out a few quotes at the same time and that worked out better for us but next time I would definitely consider booking with her again!
