Kenya: Summit to Savannah
Private mobile-tented camps, the summit of Mount Kenya, and the great herds of the Masai Mara.
How We Do Kenya

Luxury tented camps in prime wildlife corridors
No safari is complete without time under canvas in the style of the old explorers. Adventure International’s private mobile-tented camps let us follow the movement of wildlife and position camp for the best game viewing. A full crew of exceptional safari staff looks after every need — a dinner laid under the stars, a piping-hot shower on return from the afternoon’s adventures. From the slopes of Mount Kenya to the plains of the Masai Mara, every element is privately arranged.
Plan Your Kenya JourneyNairobi to the Masai Mara
Nairobi
Privately met at Jomo Kenyatta International and transferred to Palacina, a refined residence hotel. A full briefing and gear check with your guide prepares the days ahead.
Sirimon Gate to Old Moses
Transfer past banana and coffee plantations to the Sirimon gate at 2,700 m. Hike through tropical woodland — watching for monkeys, buffalo, or elephant — to Old Moses Camp at 3,200 m.
Acclimatization on the Mountain
Through moorland to Likki North Hut, then the steep climb to Shipton’s Camp at 4,200 m. Giant groundsels line the route; an afternoon walk to Kami Hut offers dramatic views.
Point Lenana, 4,985 m
A 3 a.m. start by headlamp through scree and rock to the summit for sunrise — the defining moment of the journey. Descend to Mackinder’s Camp for breakfast, then on to the Met Station.
Down to Samburu
Walk out through bamboo forest and transfer north to Samburu — tabletop mountains, dry acacia forest, and the colorful Samburu people. Overnight at Saruni Samburu.
A Day in Samburu
Riverine forest and grassland beneath the Koitogor and Olelokwe mountains. Look for the Samburu Special Five: Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, Beisa oryx, and Somali ostrich.
The Masai Mara
Charter flight to the Mara — the ecosystem with the highest concentration of predators in Africa. Private game drives, bush meals, and, if the timing aligns, the wildebeest river crossings of the Great Migration.
Nairobi & Departure
Charter flight to Wilson Airport in Nairobi, a farewell lunch at the legendary Carnivore, and the transfer to international departures.
