Mara North
Kenya's Rhino, Rift & Mara Safari
Explore three of Kenya's most rewarding conservancies on this seven-day safari, from the rhino country of Laikipia to the Great Rift Valley and the Maasai Mara. Lewa offers some of the best chances to see black and white rhinos and Grevy's zebras, while Soysambu's shores of Lake Elmenteita are alive with giraffes, buffalo, and flamingos. The journey ends in Mara North, where lions, elephants, and leopards roam beneath a sky that rewards every game drive.
Each conservancy has its own character, and the route moves between them with the rhythm of the landscape. Lewa's conservation work protects some of Kenya's rarest animals, while Soysambu's wide grasslands and lake setting make for a different kind of game viewing. Mara North borders the Maasai Mara National Reserve and offers exceptional predator sightings with fewer vehicles. The road transfers between regions are long, so this itinerary suits travellers who enjoy the journey as much as the destinations.
