Experience the essence of Kenya's wilderness with the "Kenya Wings over the Wilderness Safari." Departing from Nairobi, this thoughtfully curated safari immerses you in the untouched beauty of Kenya's wild landscapes. From the rugged terrain of Samburu to the vast expanses of the Maasai Mara, each day unfolds a new adventure. Travel by scheduled light aircraft, allowing the sky to guide you as you explore nature's rhythm. This journey promises a safari and an unforgettable flight into the heart of Kenya's pristine beauty.
Your journey starts at Wilson Airport, where you'll board a scheduled light aircraft to the Samburu Game Reserve.
Upon landing, you will be transferred to Soroi Larsens Camp, arriving just in time for lunch. In the afternoon, embark on an exciting game drive to discover the untamed beauty of Samburu. Afterward, return to camp for a peaceful night beneath the African sky.
For the next two days, immerse yourself in the tranquil wilderness of Samburu with morning and afternoon game drives. Traverse the rugged terrain and encounter the diverse wildlife unique to this region.
The Game Drive Experience
Samburu National Reserve is famous for its distinctive "Samburu Special 5" species, which are native to Northern Kenya. These species include the rare Grevy's Zebra, Somali Ostrich, Beisa Oryx, Gerenuk, and the stunning reticulated giraffe. Choose a morning or afternoon game drive to witness the uniqueness of this wildlife.
Sundowner Experience
After an exciting evening safari, you will be escorted to a raised viewing platform near Larsen's Camp. From there, you can enjoy the sunset behind the Koitogo Hills while indulging in a cocktail of your choice and healthy canapés.
Birdwatching in Camp
With over 400 native bird species, Samburu is a haven for birdwatchers. Accompanied by our knowledgeable local bird guide, you will explore the Ewaso Nyiro river forest line to spot unique northern species like the Somali bee-eater and Somali ostrich, among others. This excursion offers a perfect opportunity to expand your birding list.
Bid farewell to the enchanting Samburu as you embark on a scheduled light aircraft transfer to the Maasai Mara, where the elegant Soroi Luxury Migration Camp awaits. As the late afternoon unfolds, indulge in an exquisite game drive through the heart of the Mara, with the sun casting its golden hues across the plains.
For the next two days, immerse yourself in the unparalleled luxury of the Maasai Mara, exploring its vast and majestic landscapes on exclusive game drives. Encounter the illustrious Big Five and, if your visit coincides with the season from July to October, marvel at the awe-inspiring spectacle of the Great Migration.

This Travel Firm is Ready for You!
We have completed the preliminary reservations with this amazing travel firm. Thank God they exist! We would never have been able to figure out how to put the pieces of our trip to AFRICA together without them. They are patient, caring, detailed, and responsive to communications…something you expect, but do not always receive when service is involved. Connect with them via email if you are even thinking about going to Africa. Cheers!

First time to Cape Town
We are a group of ten friends traveling together to Cape Town for the first time. Safari.com was our top choice for travel agents. Leché and Tracy were incredibly helpful and prompt with our questions and bookings. The trip to Sanbona Wildlife Reserve was fantastic, and everything went off without a hitch. We highly recommend Safari.com for your safari plans!
