Overview
Many of Kenya’s dramatic landscapes played a key role in inspiring the original Lion King film, and later adaptations drew heavily from real footage captured across the country. This remarkable 10-day safari brings those legendary scenes to life, offering front-row views of Kenya’s most breathtaking environments and close encounters with the wildlife that made them world-famous.
Your adventure begins at an award-winning camp set within a private game reserve that serves as a vital wildlife corridor for animals moving in and out of Amboseli National Park. Framed by sweeping plains and big skies, this conservation area is home to an impressive variety of species, including lion, cheetah, giraffe, striped hyena, and the iconic large elephant herds for which Amboseli is renowned.
From here, travel to a hidden valley within East Africa’s largest sanctuary for endangered black rhino and a protected haven for rescued chimpanzees. Spend several nights at an intimate eco-camp in the heart of Ol Pejeta Conservancy, located in Kenya’s unspoilt Laikipia region. Enjoy daily game drives and guided nature walks led by Maasai guides, track the Big 5, and meet Baraka, the conservancy’s well-known black rhino ambassador.
The journey continues to Meru National Park, a wilderness area forever linked to the story of Elsa the lioness from Born Free. Meru was one of the places where conservation pioneers George and Joy Adamson raised Elsa and where her legacy lives on. Stay at Rhino River Camp, beautifully positioned along the Kindani River, where each room offers tranquil views and a private space for relaxation. With the park just beyond camp, Big 5 sightings are often possible within minutes of setting out.
Your safari concludes in the exclusive Olare Motorogi Conservancy, a pristine wildlife area bordering the Masai Mara National Reserve. This award-winning tented camp offers a secluded and intimate finale to your journey. Enjoy private game drives, guided bush walks with Maasai warriors, and uninterrupted time in one of Kenya’s finest low-impact conservation areas—bringing your extraordinary safari to a truly memorable close.
