About this experience
This 10-day expedition combines a Mount Kenya climb via the scenic Chogoria route with a multi-day safari in Hells Gate National Park and the Maasai Mara. You summit Point Lenana at sunrise, then transfer to the Maasai Mara for world-class game viewing.
In the Mara, you search for the Big 5 - lions, leopards, elephants, buffalo and rhinos - and witness the Great Migration if travelling between July and October. The itinerary is seamless, with every detail handled by one team.

Common questions
How do I book a tour?
Send us a message on WhatsApp, call, or use the Plan My Trip form. We confirm availability, tide times and price, and you pay a deposit by M-Pesa, bank transfer or card. The balance is settled on the day.
Are your prices fixed?
Every trip is designed around your group size, dates and budget, so we quote individually rather than publishing one price for everyone. Our quotes always include park fees, guides and transfers so there are no surprises on the day.
Do you pick up from hotels?
Yes. All day trips and safaris include pick-up and drop-off at hotels, guesthouses and villas in Watamu. Pick-ups from Malindi, Kilifi and Malindi Airport can be arranged.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Boat trips depend on the sea, and safety comes first. If the captain calls a trip off we move it to another day or refund your deposit in full. Safaris and inland trips run in light rain.
