Kenya Family holiday

The group arrives at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO). Participants are met by a
representative of African Diurnal Safaris and transfer you to your booked hotel in Nairobi.

You’ll begin your safari adventure with a visit to Nairobi’s popular Animal Orphanage. Housed
within Nairobi National Park, the Animal Orphanage was established as a refuge and
rehabilitation centre and is home to more than twenty animal and bird species. Adults and
children alike will have the chance to bond with these animals in an up close and personal
experience.
Later in the morning, at 11am, you’ll head to the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage. You and
your kids will get to watch as these adorable baby elephants work through their rehabilitation
with exercises, feeding, and bathing.
Next stop is the Giraffe Centre – a breeding centre for the Rothschild Giraffe. The centre’s
elevated feeding platform lets visitors have a face to face view of the giraffes as they eat, and
children are even afforded the opportunity to hand feed one of these beautiful creatures. You’ll
also have the chance to roam the Giraffe Centre’s beautiful grounds, and might meet a few of the
centre’s taller residents as you walk.
After lunch, it’s time to visit Mamba Village for a visit to their Crocodile Farm and meet their
Masai Ostrich population. Other activities at Mamba Village include fishing, cycling, and
swimming. It’s up to you!
Later return back to the lodge for an evening leisure followed with dinner and overnight stay

You’ll depart from Nairobi after breakfast for the drive to the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, sometimes
known as Sweet Waters. Along the way you’ll pass through colorful tea and coffee plantations as
well as crossing the equator from the southern hemisphere into the northern hemisphere.
After lunch at Sweet Waters, you’ll head out into the park for a game drive. While on your game
drive, you’ll stop at the park’s famous Chimpanzee Sanctuary for a guided tour. You’ll get to
meet the sanctuary’s highly-endangered and highly intelligent residents under the watchful eye of
a specially trained ranger.
Your game drive will also include a visit to the Morani Centre to meet Baraka, the conservancy’s
famous tamed rhino. A blind Rhino that was moved to the conservancy for his own safety,
Baraka is a friendly sight and visitors can even participate in his feeding at various times during
the day.
After these visits, you’ll finish off your afternoon with a drive through the park in search of the
Big 5 – leopards, lions, elephants, rhinos, and buffalo.

While Mum & Dad head out into the park for a day long game drive, the kids can remain behind
at Sweet Waters for a day of fun activities including camel riding & horse riding, swimming, and
more.

You’ll depart from Ol Pejeta and make your way to the picturesque shores of Lake Naivasha.
Lake Naivasha is a freshwater lake located on the rim of the Great Rift Valley. Famous for its
bird life, the area is also home to animals such as giraffes and buffalo, as well as velvet and
colobus monkeys.
Your day on the lake will include a guided boat safari out on the lake to see hippos and water
birds, and a visit to the Crescent Island Sanctuary where you and your kids can walk alongside
zebras, giraffes, antelopes, and more.

It wouldn’t be a safari in Kenya without a visit to the legendary Masai Mara.
You’ll depart from Lake Naivasha after breakfast and drive south to the Masai Mara, the home to
the Eighth Wonder of the World – the Great Wildebeest Migration.
Whatever time of the year you’re in the park, you’ll get the chance to see lions, leopards,
elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, cheetahs, and more. In certain months, during the
Wildebeest Migration, the park is flooded with more than 1.7 million wildebeest and 500,000
zebras.
You’ll enjoy lunch at your lodge before heading out into the park for an afternoon game drive.

You have the option to wake up before dawn for an unforgettable sunrise game drive out in the
park. Not only is the savannah particularly beautiful as it is being set fire to by the rising sun, but
predators such as lions and leopards are especially active in the cool morning air.
Alternatively, you may wish to take to the skies with an optional hot air balloon safari at dawn.
You’ll enjoy a spectacular view of the park and the sunrise from 1,000 feet before descending to
enjoy a champagne breakfast on the savannah.
After your breakfast, you can relax at the lodge until lunch before heading out on a game drive or
you can take a picnic lunch and embark on a full day exploration of the park in pursuit of the
Wildebeest Migration and the Big Five.
Optional children’s activities at the lodge include Masai activities such as spear throwing,
archery, guided nature walks, or learning how to light a fire the Masai way.
In the evening, you can enjoy a demonstration of traditional Masai dance by the bonfire.
Participation is encouraged!

Say your goodbyes and return to Nairobi, where you’ll have a farewell lunch at Kenya’s most
famous restaurant – Carnivore. You’ll have the chance to try game steaks or eat some traditional
Kenyan fare.
You’ll then be transferred to the airport for your onward travels.
