Frequently Asked Questions

Kenya is one of the most popular and well-established safari destinations in Africa. Our tours operate in well-managed national parks and conservancies with experienced guides. We follow all safety protocols and our guides are trained in first aid and wildlife safety.

Most nationalities need an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA), which you can apply for online before travel. The process is straightforward and typically approved within 72 hours. Check the Kenyan immigration website for the latest requirements for your nationality.

The dry seasons (July–October and January–February) offer the best wildlife viewing as animals gather around water sources. The Great Migration in the Maasai Mara peaks between July and October. The short rains (November–December) bring lush landscapes and fewer crowds at lower prices.

Pack light, neutral-coloured clothing (khaki, beige, olive), a warm fleece for early morning game drives, comfortable walking shoes, a wide-brimmed hat, sunscreen (SPF 50+), insect repellent, binoculars, and a good camera with zoom lens. Most lodges offer laundry service.

This tour includes: Stay in economy, comfort or luxury lodges / tented camps ( please choose ) Our fully equipped 4x4 Safari Land Cruisers offer comfort, safety, and all-terrain performance, Enjoy a pop-up roof for wildlife viewing, spacious seats, large windows and charging ports, Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner for both Veg and Non Veg as mentioned in tour plan, Park entrance fees covering access to national parks and reserves, Pick-up and Drop-off from the designated airport as per the itinerary, A professional English-speaking driver/guide will accompany you throughout the safari. For a complete breakdown of inclusions and exclusions, see the tour details above or contact our team for a detailed proposal.

A 10-day safari lets you explore multiple parks and ecosystems without rushing. You'll have time for off-the-beaten-path experiences, cultural interactions, and repeated game drives that increase your chances of rare sightings. It's the most immersive way to experience Africa.

Absolutely! Every safari can be tailored to your preferences. You can add or remove days, upgrade accommodation, include special experiences like hot air balloon rides, or combine with beach holidays. Contact us with your wishes and we'll create your perfect trip.

Our budget safaris offer excellent value without compromising on the wildlife experience. You'll stay in comfortable, clean accommodation (lodges or permanent tented camps), enjoy full-board meals, and have expert driver-guides. The same parks, the same animals — just more affordable lodging.

Our safari prices typically include airport transfers, all transportation in 4x4 safari vehicles, full-board accommodation, park entrance fees, an English-speaking driver-guide, and bottled water. International flights, visa fees, travel insurance, tips, and personal expenses are excluded.

Contact us with your preferred dates and we'll send a detailed proposal. To secure your booking, we require a 30% deposit. The remaining balance is due 60 days before departure. We accept bank transfers, credit cards (via Stripe), PayPal, M-Pesa, and Flutterwave.

What Our Travelers Say

Tom Blackwell

"Third safari with Plentiful Adventures. This time we did the luxury Mara-Serengeti crossing. The lodges were exceptional, the food incredible, and the wildlife sightings nonstop. What keeps me coming back is the personal service — they remember what I liked last time and build on it."

via direct

Rachel Njeru

"As a solo female traveler, safety was my top priority. From the moment I landed in Nairobi, I felt looked after. My guide Joseph knew every corner of Amboseli — and seeing Kilimanjaro at golden hour with elephants silhouetted against it was the highlight of my year."

via direct

David & Lisa Chen

"We did the Kenya + Tanzania circuit with our two kids (ages 8 and 12). The guides were incredible with the children — patient, educational, and genuinely passionate. Watching the wildebeest crossing at the Mara River as a family is something we will never forget."
