About Custom Eastern Africa Safaris with Nat Hab










Trip Highlights
- A Personalized Private TrekTrek with your private group through the lush forests of the Kenya's little-known Loita Hills, guided by resident Maasai tribesmen who know this land like none other

- An Exclusive Private ConservancyEnjoy unparalleled seclusion at Encounter Mara Camp within the private Naboisho Conservancy, for an exclusive experience of the "hidden" Mara—without crowds
You Won't Find a More Authentic Local Experience of Kenya
- A Rare Active Safari Opportunity
On most African safaris, guests are confined to vehicles the entire time. And while classic game drives are a thrilling and key part of any safari—including this one—active travelers often end up yearning for more physical activity. This, then, is the perfect combination: several days on foot for a vigorous yet quiet and highly personal experience of the Kenyan wilds, followed by outstanding wildlife drives in the legendary Maasai Mara. - A Custom Small Group for Intimate Wildlife Encounters
Most travelers to Kenya end up on safaris in groups of 16 or 20 or more. With your own small private party, you'll get closer to wildlife in a quieter context, get better photos, and enjoy personalized interpretation from your guides. There's simply no comparison! - A Private Reserve Means No Crowds & Exclusive Activities
Many Kenya safaris include the Maasai Mara National Reserve, the country's most famous wildlife park. And it's often crowded as a result. We get around that by showing you the "hidden Mara" on an adjacent private reserve, where you'll experience all of the wildlife without all the people. Within this privatesanctuary you'll have opportunities for guided bush walks and night drives to see nocturnal wildlife, neither of which is permitted within the national park. And, when we do visit the park itself, we travel to a remote sector, exploring by day and returning to our private camp outside the park boundaries at night. - Intimate Luxury Accommodations Offer Seclusion & Wildlife Proximity
Most visitors to Kenya stay at large, impersonal safari lodges where wildlife viewing happens in the presence of numerous vehicles, all clustered around the same animals. After your Loita Hills trek, you'll stay at a remote luxury tented camp on a private conservancy bordering the Maasai Mara. Our intimate safari camp offers a peaceful and isolated experience of wild Africa, not to mention exceptional comfort and plenty of personal pampering. - Travel with Some of Kenya's Top Guides
You simply won't find more outstanding guides than those who will accompany your private group. Our Maasai guides are natives of the region, having grown up on the land we trek through in families that have been at home here for generations. Their deep knowledge, good humor and personalized care for each guest will be highlights of your trip. Likewise, your veteran safari guides from Encounter Mara Camp are among East Africa's best trained and most congenial leaders. - A Window Seat for Every Traveler
In our privately chartered custom Toyota Land Cruisers, everyone in your party has a window seat, easy access to roof openings, and room to angle for photos as we enjoy close encounters with Kenya’s diverse wildlife. It’s quite a contrast to the crowdedmini buses that ferry many Kenya safari-goers into the bush. - Our Quality-Value Guarantee Ensures Your Outstanding Kenya Adventure
