Experience Kenya on foot: guided walks in Laikipia and a Mara conservancy, with game drives, sundowners and fly-in transfers.
Overview
A Laikipia walking safari shows you the details you miss from a vehicle: tracks, dung, medicinal plants and the thrill of approaching giraffes and elephants on foot. Laikipia’s private ranches north of Mount Kenya are among the best places in Kenya for walking, with expert guides and few other visitors.
The second half of the trip continues in a Masai Mara conservancy, where walks with Maasai guides alternate with game drives to see big cats. Walks are 2–4 hours at a gentle pace, avoiding the midday heat.
Best for: Specialist / active. Popular with: Active travellers and repeat safari-goers from the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Scandinavia. Best time: June–October and January–March.
Price is from USD 4,200 per adult sharing; the final cost depends on season, accommodation and group size.
