Why travel with Safariko
Personalised service
You deal with the people who drive and guide the trips, not a call centre.
Small group experience
Shared safaris stay small, so everyone gets a window seat and time at sightings.
Experienced safari guides
Guides who read the land daily and know where the action is going to be.
Amazing photo opportunities
Pop-up roofs, patient positioning and golden-hour timing built into every drive.
Life on safari
Days built around sightings
Early starts, picnic lunches and patient waits at the rivers. Your guide times each day around the wildlife, not the clock — and in season that means the crossings on the Mara River.
People, not only parks
Many itineraries include a Maasai village visit. Your visit fee goes to the community — ask us how it works when you enquire.

Questions travellers ask
What is the difference between a group joining safari and a private safari?
On a group joining safari you share the 4x4 land cruiser and its costs with other travellers, which keeps the price low. On a private safari the vehicle and guide are yours alone — you choose the pace, the stops and the timing. Tell us your dates and group size and we will price both.
To confirm
What is included in the price?
Most packages include a 4x4 land cruiser with pop-up roof, accommodation on a full-board basis, park fees, game drives, drinking water, a professional guide and a Maasai village visit. Each package page lists its own inclusions and exclusions — check the table on the trip you are considering.
To confirm
When is the best time to see the wildebeest migration?
The herds are usually in the Masai Mara from about July to October, when river crossings happen most often. Exact timing depends on the rains, so ask us for an update close to your dates.

How do I pay?

To confirm
What should I pack?
Neutral-coloured clothing, a warm layer for early-morning drives, a hat, sunscreen, closed shoes and any personal medication. Soft bags are better than hard suitcases for the land cruiser. A full packing list comes with your booking confirmation.
