This program travels the scenic Sirimon route, with some game-viewing and bird watching opportunities along the first day's paths. Then it's up across the Liki and Mackinder's Valleys to Shipton's camp where you can see glistening peaks and stunning scenery.
The Sirimon route is a moderate-strenuous climb but not a technical one and mountain-climbing experience isn't necessary. However, there’s no avoiding the steep ascents and high altitudes that make physical fitness a prerequisite.
You can discover a great deal about yourself through this adventure, but only if the experience is of extremely high quality and professionally organized, which is a part of our specialty.

This 6-day tour to three fascinating wildlife spots in Kenya, including Maasai Mara National Reserve, Lake Nakuru National Park and Amboseli National Park. Enjoy an awesome adventure combination of nature, wildlife, history and great tales from the locals of the old days. The tour includes accommodation, meals and game drives.
The tour starts by visiting the Masai Mara National Reserve, one of the most popular reserves in all of Africa lying in the Great Rift Valley in Kenya. Masai Mara shares a border with Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park and is essentially a continuation of this park, forming the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem. The Masai Mara is an African safari at its most iconic, a seemingly endless landscape filled with the drama of nature. Predators are thrillingly abundant, and the big cats define the rhythm on the plains every single day. Ungulates are diverse and plentiful, and astonishing numbers of four hooved animals cross the grasslands. Then there are the other giants, the elephants, giraffe, buffalo, hippo, even the elusive black rhino.
The next stop will be Lake Nakuru National Park, a gently undulating terrain with open bush and woodlands, typical of the dry rift valley vegetation. Twenty seven percent of the park is composed of the Lake Nakuru waters. The park has a large reserve of over 400 species of birds, which make it an ideal site of bird lovers. The park is also a sanctuary of rhinoceros with approximately 45 black and 31 white rhinoceros and the Rothschild's giraffe.
Finally, the tour takes you to Amboseli National Park, one of the most popular wildlife sanctuaries in Kenya. The Amboseli National Park’s ecosystem is mainly savannah grassland spread across the Kenya-Tanzania border right at the foot of Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa (5,896m). From the park, you can get a splendid view of Kili's snow-capped summit on clear days and also comprises of forested areas around some of its rivers and lakes. The park is famous for being the best place in Africa to get close to free-ranging elephants among other wildlife species, and its other attractions include opportunities to meet the Maasai tribe’s people, and its spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro. Melted snow from Kilimanjaro travels underground and surfaces in the center of Amboseli, providing marsh habitat and water for a variety of species. The low scrub vegetation makes wildlife easy to spot – including resident lions, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, buffalos, zebras, giraffes and a variety of antelope species. Amboseli hosts approximately 400 bird species.

Feedback from guests who toured Kenya during December.
Claire | Traveled in December
This was truly a great trip. The experiences were simply amazing and once in a lifetime. The Gorilla trekking is simply a must. But be warned there are many early mornings but it's worth it. As a solo traveller, it can be challenging to travel and G Adventures made it possible to visit Africa.
Emily | Traveled in December
I had a fantastic time on the tour, seeing so much and visiting 5 countries in a short period of time. A big thank you to Angie and Leonard for being awesome tour leaders throughout the entire thing.
Anonymous | Traveled in December
One of the best experiences of my life! From the booking to the debrief after the Safari, all the experience was super smooth. Our guide Charles was amazing, a true expert in wildlife, super nice and friendly, and really cautious driver. We saw a lot of animals and learned a lot about them. The food was very good. A once in a lifetime experience, and we highly recommend them.

It has been an incredible experience made amazing by our fantastic guides Charles and Alfred. We have seen so much more than we expected. Our guides (Rodger and Wycliffe) were so knowledgeable, and helpful and made it possible for us to see far more than we anticipated. I can't rate the experience and service highly enough!

The activities offered by the company were excellent, and the service was outstanding. What really stood out for us was the guide, Francis, who accompanied us throughout the trip. He was the best part of the experience, as he explained everything in great detail, showing his professionalism and knowledge. At the same time, he made the journey fun and enjoyable with his great sense of humor. It was truly an unforgettable experience thanks to him!
