Overview
What this journey is.
Children do better when the vehicle is private and the day has a middle that is not another game drive. This week uses Nairobi as a soft landing, Nakuru as a first wildlife morning, and four nights in the Mara so nobody is changing camps every day. The route is Kenya only, and the hours are set for families rather than for a checklist.
