Kenya Journey to the South & Lake Nakuru
About this journey
Kenya's south is where the drama lives. This 8-day safari connects the country's most photogenic landscapes in a sweeping arc from the flamingo-lined shores of Lake Nakuru through the hippo-filled waters of Lake Naivasha to the predator-rich savannahs of the Masai Mara, finishing with the elephant-dominated plains of Amboseli beneath Kilimanjaro's snow-capped peak. It's a journey designed for photographers and nature lovers who want variety — birdlife by the thousands, Big Five encounters, and the kind of landscape shots that win awards. Two nights at each destination ensures you're never rushed, and your dedicated guide knows exactly where to position you for the golden hour light.
