Your villa is open and spacious, with spectacular views over Kalama Conservancy and Mount Kenya. With over 200,000 acres (810 square kilometres) of unspoiled and wildlife-rich bush. Keep an eye out for giant herds of Samburu elephants coming to drink at the waterholes, leopards making their lairs on rocky outcrops nearby, and endangered packs of African wild dogs traversing the plains below the lodge. The area is also home to rare endemic species and the Samburu five: Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, beisa oryx, Somali ostrich and genenuk.

After breakfast, you will be transferred to Saruni Rhino Lodge, located about two-hours away. Saruni Rhino Lodge offers several diverse experiences, including the first black rhino tracking experience in East Africa. This incredible walking safari provides a thrilling adventure and the opportunity to actively contribute to protecting this iconic species.
Saruni Rhino Lodge lies in Kenya's wild, undiscovered northern frontier of Sera Community Conservancy, which covers 350,000 hectares (1,400 square kilometres). The semi-arid, untouched, striking landscape stretches further than the eye can see, giving a sense of total inimitability. Your two-night stay includes meals, selected beverages, shared scheduled game drives and walks, and one rhino tracking session per day. The sanctuary is set within the conservancy; it is fenced and highly secured to assist Kenya's growing black rhino population.

Have an early morning breakfast and road transfer to the airstrip for your flight to Mara (could be via Wilson Airport, depending on the airline's schedule).
On arrival in the Mara, you are transferred to Saruni Mara, in the North Conservancy, with vast open plains to the south and lush forest to the north. Your three-night stay includes your meals, selected beverages, shared game drives, and bush walks.
The Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya is famous for its unique concentration of wildlife, birds, rich vegetation and open savannah. It is classified among the Seven Wonders of the World due to the Annual Great Migration (in season) when over 1.3 million wildebeest and zebras cross from the Serengeti into the Mara in search of greener pastures.
The lodge is small, with two villas and five cottages, each individually decorated with themed rooms for a classic safari feel. Spend time relaxing with a book and listening to the animals calling at night while the stars shine bright.
