Experience Kenya on foot with this unforgettable 8-Days Kenya Walking Safari, blending thrilling wildlife encounters with immersive cultural experiences. Starting in Nairobi, the journey takes you south through lush Wakamba lands into the legendary Amboseli National Park, where elephants roam beneath the shadow of Mt. Kilimanjaro.
Spend days walking through the vast Mbirikani Group Ranch, a private Masai reserve teeming with wildlife and free from crowds. Trek alongside local guides across open savannah and acacia-dotted plains, keeping your eyes peeled for plains game, elephants, and even lions.
End your journey with classic Game Drives In Tsavo West, exploring its dramatic scenery and visiting the crystal-clear Mzima Springs, home to hippos and crocodiles. This safari is perfect for nature lovers who crave both adventure and a deeper connection with Kenya’s land, wildlife, and people — all at a walking pace.
Your adventure begins as you leave behind the city buzz of Nairobi and head south through the rich, green farmlands of Wakamba country. As the landscape shifts into the open plains of Maasai territory, the mighty Mt. Kilimanjaro rises in the distance, casting its iconic shadow across Amboseli.
After arriving, enjoy your first game drive in the park—an introduction to Kenya’s vast wildlife. Tonight, you’ll sleep under canvas in a private campsite, surrounded by the sounds of nature.
Wake up to the golden sunrise spilling over the plains. Spend the day immersed in Amboseli, known for its large elephant herds and panoramic views of Kilimanjaro. With game drives in the morning and afternoon, you’ll track big cats, grazing antelope, and maybe spot a cheetah sprinting across the grasslands.
After a final game drive in Amboseli, your journey continues toward the Chyulu Hills. Along the way, pass through vibrant Maasai villages and lush swamps where smallholder farmers cultivate vegetables using age-old irrigation methods. This is a different side of Kenya — alive with culture and colour. Settle into camp at Mbirikani Group Ranch, where community and conservation come together.
It’s time to lace up your boots. Today, you’ll explore on foot—following ancient animal trails across open plains in search of zebra, giraffe, and even lions. Walking safaris offer a more intimate view of the land, with every footprint and birdsong telling a story.
At the base of the Chyulu Hills, the savannah stretches wide and wild. You’ll trek across rolling plains scattered with umbrella-shaped acacias — favourite feeding grounds for elephants. Alongside experienced local guides, learn to read the land like the Maasai do.
Climb into the Chyulu Hills, an ancient volcanic range rich in mystery. At the summit, soak in sweeping views across the plains with Kilimanjaro watching silently from the distance. The scenery is a dramatic blend of thick forest, volcanic cones, and open sky. It’s a soul-stirring experience.
Today you return to your safari vehicle for game drives in Tsavo West — Kenya’s largest park. Visit Mzima Springs, where crystal-clear waters bubble up from underground, forming a lush oasis home to hippos, crocodiles, and an array of birdlife.
Enjoy a final morning game drive as the sun rises. Then, make your way back to Nairobi, carrying with you the memories of walking where few tourists go — through the wild, beautiful heart of Kenya.
