An eight-day loop from Samburu in the north down through the Rift Valley to the Masai Mara, covering 4 ecosystems and species found nowhere else in Kenya.
Seven days covering Kenya’s highlights – Nakuru’s rhinos, Naivasha’s boat safaris, the Masai Mara’s Big Five, and Amboseli’s elephants against a Kilimanjaro backdrop.
Kenya’s southern circuit – Amboseli elephants, Tsavo’s volcanic landscapes, Salt Lick’s night wildlife, and wide open plains with far fewer crowds.
This five-day safari works well for travellers with limited time who want to see different ecosystems. Rhinos, flamingos, hippos and the Masai Mara’s Big 5.
Ten days from Samburu’s northern bush to Amboseli’s elephant country, taking in Rift Valley lakes and three nights in the Masai Mara along the way.
Eight days through the Rift Valley lakes, three nights in the Masai Mara, and Amboseli’s elephants under Kilimanjaro, Kenya’s highlights in one clean circuit.
Five days through Lake Nakuru’s rhinos, Naivasha’s boat safaris, and two full days in the Masai Mara – good mid-range value on Kenya’s most popular circuit.
Four days visiting Lake Nakuru’s rhinos and flamingos before two nights in the Masai Mara for Big Five game viewing, a compact, well-priced Kenya introduction.
Four days, two of Kenya’s best parks, and two genuinely excellent lodges – Sarova Lion Hill on the lake and Mara Serena inside the Mara Triangle.
From vast savannas teeming with wildlife to stunning coastlines – Kenya’s story is written in remarkable figures.
Australians no longer need a traditional visa to visit Kenya. Since January 2024, you just need an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA), which you can apply for online before your trip. It covers stays up to 90 days.
Kenya is a fantastic safari destination year-round, with wildlife visible in every season. That said, June to October is considered the peak period – animals gather around water sources during the dry season, and you may witness the Great Wildebeest Migration in the Masai Mara.
There are no direct flights from Australia to Kenya. Most routes connect through Dubai, Doha, or Singapore into Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi. Total travel time is roughly 18 – 22 hours depending on the layover.
Pack light, neutral-colored clothing in khaki, beige, or olive. Long sleeves protect against the sun and insects. Bring layers – mornings and evenings on the savanna can get surprisingly cool, especially if you’re used to Australian heat.
The Kenyan Shilling (KES) is the local currency. US Dollars are widely accepted at lodges and for park fees, so it’s worth carrying some. M-Pesa mobile payments are also common across the country.
Kenya is one of the best places in the world to spot all five: lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo. The Masai Mara, Amboseli, and Lake Nakuru offer the highest chances.
Kenya’s national parks are very safe when you follow your guide’s instructions. Stay inside the vehicle during game drives, keep a safe distance from animals, and avoid flash photography.
Tipping is customary and appreciated in Kenya. A general guideline is USD $10 – 15 per day for your safari guide and USD $5 –10 per day for camp or lodge staff. It’s easiest to tip in US Dollars.
Bring a camera with a good zoom lens (200mm minimum). Dust is common on game drives, so carry a protective bag or cover. Always ask permission before photographing local communities, especially the Maasai.
Yellow Fever vaccination is not required for travellers arriving directly from Australia, but it is recommended if you’re transiting through an endemic country. Malaria prophylaxis is advised, especially for lower-altitude parks like Masai Mara and Tsavo. Consult your GP or a travel clinic before departure.
