Masai Mara & Chyulu Hills

Experience Kenya’s iconic landscapes, travelling to the Chyulu Hills and the Greater Mara.

The Chyulu Hills sit between Amboseli and Tsavo, in southern Kenya. Set within the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro, the Chyulu Hills offer rolling green hills and stunning views from every angle. The national park offers some fantastic birdwatching, as well as the chance to see wildlife like elephants, leopards, buffalo, wildebeest, zebra and antelopes. At Campi Ya Kanzi, tented suites and cottages all offer incredible views, and the camp is an authentic eco lodge that is a fantastic base for exploring the park.

After three nights in the Chyulu Hills, continue your adventure in the Greater Mara, more specifically, the Naboisho Conservancy. The private conservancy offers some incredible wildlife opportunities; the conservancy has a thriving lion population, which is one of the strongest in the world. With strictly controlled numbers of vehicles at each sighting, private conservancies offer the chance to see the Big 5 without the crowds. Here, you will stay at Encounter Mara, a classic tented camp with warm service and daily safaris led by expert guides.
