Kenya-The New
Safari FrontiersVenture into
the remote Northern Frontier of Kenya on this camel-supported walking safari and helicopter adventure. Explore some of the world's most remote areas, including the
Jade Sea-Lake Turkana. Take a scenic flight aboard a vintage two-seater biplane reminiscent of a bygone era in aviation Set
out with Toby Fenwick-Wilson, one of East Africa's premiere safari leaders. Embark on a range
of activities, including day and night game drives, horseback riding, and cultural visits. Ride 10,000 feet down Mount
Kenya on a mountain bike
DAY 1 Nairobi
Arrive and transfer to the historic Norfolk Hotel
for your welcome dinner and overnight.
DAY 2 Lewa Downs / Laikipia
Fly
into the bush at Lewa Downs, the gateway to Laikipia Plateau and perhaps East Africa's finest conservancy. Transfer by
vehicle to Borana Lodge, your base for the next three days.
DAYS
3 - 4 The Northern Frontier District
Explore the district's contrasting ecosystems
in equally diverse manners. Trek or ride horses, with opportunities to see elephant, black rhino, lion, hyena and leopard.
One day you cycle on a mountain bike 10,000 feet down Mount Kenya, over moorland and through primary forest, eventually rolling
onto the semi-desert, where you cool off in the river. Another morning you board an open-cockpit two-passenger WACO bi-plane,
a replica of a vintage 1920s model, for a nostalgic flight over Kenya's breathtaking landscape.
DAYS 5 – 6 Walking Safari into Wild Tribal Lands
Head
by vehicle to the Nandanguru Plain, where you meet your guide and Kerukki tribesmen and begin trekking through the Northern
Frontier tribal lands, with camp moving daily via pack camels and with rifle support. The pace is gentle but steady, with
a focus on wildlife viewing and opportunities to interact with local nomads. Meals are served in the mess tent, and you sleep
in your simple but comfortable safari tent.
Days 7 - 8
Tassia Lodge
Owned and run by local Maasai, this remote lodge faces
the sacred Mount Lolokwe. Trek through the Mokogodo Forest, explore the bush, and swim under the waterfalls.
DAYS 9 - 10 Tassia / Chalbi Desert / Mount Nyiru / Suguta / Nanyuki
Board the world's quietest helicopter and fly
to Desert Rose for mountain hiking, swimming and overnight. In the morning, helicopter (with impromptu stops) into the Great
Rift and Suguta Valleys, one of the world's most savagely beautiful areas, including crocodile-filled Lake Turkana and
Lake Logipi, which is pink with flamingoes. Flying north to the black-sand Chalbe, explore Kalache oasis and trading settlement,
the Hurri Hills, and the volcano springs at Afkabir. Overnight at a Kalache thatched-roof/tent camp.
