The Kenya Tanzania safari itinerary, day by day
A 13-day Kenya Tanzania safari itinerary — one unbroken arc through East Africa’s greatest gamelands: Amboseli beneath Kilimanjaro, a private Maasai Mara conservancy, the Serengeti and the crater.
Nothing here is fixed — this is the shape we design most often. Tell us what to keep, stretch or swap, and your version arrives priced and complete.
July–October, when the migration is on the Kenya side and everything is dry and golden.
US travelers: check current entry requirements for each country on travel.state.gov — we also walk you through visas at booking.
Nairobi
Arrive; overnight in leafy Karen with a Sheldrick elephant-nursery visit arranged when booked well in advance.
Amboseli
Fly to Amboseli and its private conservancies — great tuskers on the plains beneath Kilimanjaro’s snows.
Maasai Mara
A private Mara conservancy — off-road big cats, night drives, guided walks and Maasai-led culture, with strict vehicle limits keeping sightings yours.
Serengeti
Cross into Tanzania via the Migori–Tarime border or fly via Nairobi–Kilimanjaro; three nights following the migration — north or central by season.
Ngorongoro & out
Crater floor finale, then fly home via Kilimanjaro airport.
