The Kenya Big Five Safari Tour

The Kenya Big Five Safari Tour by Nature Bound Africa is a comprehensive 15-day, 14-night adventure designed to maximize sightings of Africa’s most iconic wildlife: the lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhinoceros.

This flagship tour spans Kenya’s diverse ecosystems, from the volcanic landscapes of the north to the classic savannahs of the south. 

Tour Highlights

    • Masai Mara National Reserve: Renowned for the highest concentration of wildlife in Kenya and the Great Wildebeest Migration (seasonal from July to October).

    • Amboseli National Park: Famous for large herds of free-ranging elephants and incomparable views of Mount Kilimanjaro.

    • Ol Pejeta Conservancy: The only place in Kenya to see chimpanzees and home to both black and white rhinos.

    • Lake Nakuru National Park: A premier rhino sanctuary also known for its “flamingo spectacle” where millions of birds can tint the shores pink.

    • Samburu Game Reserve: Offers a chance to see the “Samburu Special Five”—rare species like the Grevy’s zebra and reticulated giraffe not found in southern parks.
