What a magical Safari adventure! This tour packs it in! 2 days on the Masai Mara, 2 days in the Serengeti, a drive into the Ngorongoro Crater, plus cultural visits to a Masai village and other indigenous tribes. The overnight in the Serengeti tented camp was superb, offering a very comfortable yet immersive experience. We saw so much wildlife and many of the animals were within close range—elephants and giraffes crossing the road in front of us and lions walking next to the jeep! Our guide, Darlene, was exceptional —knowledgeable, caring, and fun-loving and our four drivers were incredible too —they know the parks so well and were a wealth of information. All our accommodations were terrific, meals were plentiful, and included activities were fun. This is an amazing trip!!!!Show more

  What time does the Nairobi City Experience Urban Adventure optional tour costing USD45 start and end?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written July 2025
  The luggage weight limit is maximum 20kg per person, but we recommend packing as lightly as possible. We recommend backpacks or duffel bags, as large framed suitcases can be difficult to fit, especially when the vehicle is at full capacity.
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written July 2025
  The starting hotel is: The Heron Hotel, Jakaya Kikwete Road Opposite Provincial Police Headquarters, Nairobi. The cost of an additional night there would be around USD $130 per night for a single room.
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written July 2025
  If you do decide to arrival early we can still arrange the complimentary transfer but you do need to stay at the same hotel weather you book it directly with us or not.
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written July 2025
  The optional excursion in Nairobi is run by our parent company Urban Adventures. We recommend checking out their website for more information on dates, timing, and availability.
