7N Kenya Tour from India | Big Five Safari Circuit

8 Days 7 Nights

Seven nights across Amboseli, Lake Elementaita and Masai Mara from Nairobi, with five activities, visa and return flights.

Amboseli, Lake Elementaita and the Masai Mara line up across this seven-night Big Five Kenya safari, giving each of the country's signature habitats two nights before a Nairobi finish. Five activities pack the game-viewing schedule.

What is the Big Five and where can you see them

Lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino are the classic Big Five, and this circuit targets all of them: elephants under Kilimanjaro in Amboseli, rhino and birdlife around Elementaita and Nakuru, and the big cats of the Masai Mara. Two nights in each reserve give realistic odds across the set.
