About this trip

6 Day Conservation Flying Safari | Ol Pejeta Conservancy & Maasai Mara

Experience a different side of safari on a six day journey combining remarkable wildlife viewing with some of Kenya’s most meaningful conservation experiences.

Begin in Ol Pejeta Conservancy, where game drives are paired with the opportunity to see the world’s last two northern white rhinos and visit the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary. From here, fly to the Maasai Mara for classic Big Five game viewing across its expansive savannahs.

Scheduled flights connect Nairobi, Ol Pejeta, and the Maasai Mara, while our Signature collection of lodges and camps provides a carefully selected base in each wildlife region.

Why We Designed It This Way

Choose this journey if conservation is an important part of why you want to experience Kenya.

Rather than adding more destinations, we keep the safari focused on two complementary regions. Ol Pejeta brings you closer to Kenya’s wildlife conservation work, while the Maasai Mara gives you the classic safari experience of predators, open savannahs, and exceptional game viewing.

With six days, flying between the two allows you to spend your time experiencing each destination rather than covering long distances by road.

Journey Highlights

  • Encounter the world’s last two northern white rhinos at Ol Pejeta Conservancy

  • Visit the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary

  • Search for the Big Five in the Maasai Mara

  • Experience game drives across two distinct wildlife ecosystems

  • Fly between Nairobi, Ol Pejeta, and the Maasai Mara

  • Stay in a carefully selected collection of Signature lodges and safari camps

All that remains is for you to experience Kenya.
