Thrilling safaris, expert guides, epic wildlife

From rhino tracking in the wild north to riverfront game viewing in the Masai Mara – this is an unforgettable journey for families who want to share the magic of safari together.

This is a true family adventure, combining Kenya’s wild north, dramatic landscapes, and iconic wildlife, with camps and experiences specially chosen to suit curious young travellers and adults alike.

Our Kenya specialist, Ottie, says:
“What makes this trip so special is how varied and interactive it is, which is perfect for adventurous families. Each camp offers something different, from tracking wildlife on foot to seeing elephants from your tent. The kids won’t just be watching nature documentaries – they’ll be living in one. And everything’s taken care of, so the grown-ups can actually relax and enjoy it too.”

You’ll start in the Laikipia region, staying at Moon’s Camp – a small, family-run base where you’ll feel instantly at home. Set in the wildlife-rich Lolldaiga Hills, this is a brilliant spot for your first safari experiences, with relaxed game drives, stunning landscapes, and time to simply enjoy being together in the wild.

Next, travel further north to the rocky outcrops of Samburu and the jaw-dropping views of Saruni Samburu. This lodge is a real showstopper – perched high above the plains, with open-sided rooms and a warm, welcoming team who love sharing their world. Here you’ll spot rare species like Grevy’s zebra and reticulated giraffe, take guided nature walks, and learn about Samburu traditions from the people who live here.

Finally, fly south to the iconic Masai Mara and the riverside setting of Little Governors’ Camp. This is classic safari territory – lions on the hunt, elephants at the waterhole, and, if you’re lucky, a glimpse of the Great Migration. There’s time to visit local communities and conservation projects too – or take a hot-air balloon flight for a view your kids will never forget.

With everything seamlessly arranged, all you need to do is enjoy making the kind of memories you’ll be talking about around the dinner table for years to come.

January

January is a great time for wildlife viewing. The landscapes are lush and green after the 'short rains' and newborn animals can been seen. It is hot, but brief afternoon or evening showers cool things down, without compromising your safari. Over on the coast the sea is clear, making it ideal for diving and snorkelling, and the days are warm and bright.

February

February is an ideal time to visit Kenya, and great for game viewing. The landscapes are green and thriving thanks to the short rains, and newborn animals will be hopping around the plains. There maybe a few afternoon showers which are welcome in the heat, and don't impact on wildlife viewing. Water clarify is excellent at the moment, which is good news for watersports enthusiasts. And if you want to spot a whale shark, now is the time to try.

March

Still a good option for wildlife viewing and diving, although with the 'long rains' just around the corner, expect wetter and hotter weather.

April

April brings the start of the 'long rains' which means game reserves and national parks become muddy and harder to drive around. Over on the coast it's hot and wet, so it isn't the best time of year to travel. Some camps and lodges close during this period.

May

The 'long rains' continue into May, making park tracks difficult to navigate in the mud, and the coast very warm and wet. There will be less accommodation choice at this time as several lodges and camps during this period.

June

June is a beautiful time of year to visit Kenya, with the rains receding to just light showers, and the long dry season not far ahead. The high grasses can sometimes make it more of a challenge to spot game, but the landscapes are lush and some animals may begin arriving early for the migration. At altitude nights can be cool, but elsewhere the temperature is pleasant.

July

July marks the beginning of the great migration into the Masai Mara, and with warm and generally dry weather, this is a great time of year to visit. Days are sunny, skies are blue and there isn't too much dust around, so it's a great time for photography.

August

The migration is now in full swing in the Masai Mara, with lots of river crossing action, so if you want to see those massive herds of wildebeest and zebra, now is the time to come. Game viewing in general is excellent and it's one of the most popular times of year to visit, so some of the main parks do become crowded. Temperatures are warm and dry.

September

Game viewing continues to be excellent, and the weather is generally dry so this is another ideal month to visit Kenya's parks. The bush is less dense and as animals gather around waterholes and rivers it makes wildlife spotting much easier.

October

October is a great time if you want to avoid the crowds and don't mind the temperature slowly starting to rise. There may be a few short showers, but game viewing remains excellent with the end of the migration, and it's a good time to holiday anywhere in Kenya.

November

November heralds the start of the 'short rains' and with hotter temperatures some camps are closed. The Mara however is still open, and despite sometimes stormy skies, game viewing is still good. Fewer crowds and lower prices make this an attractive month to visit. Over on the coast water clarify is good for snorkelling and diving.

December

The 'short rains' are bringing the landscapes back to life, and as the plains start to become green again, wildlife viewing remains good, and it's a great time for birding. Some camps are closed (mainly in the north of Kenya) but many others remain open. The showers tend to fall in the afternoons and don't impact greatly on a safari. Take advantage of reduced visitor numbers and lower prices.
