Is it right for your family?
This is Kenya adventure-style, staying in comfortable lodges and fixed camps - great value overall with most meals included. A few days of long drives as the roads can be bumpy, but a great opportunity to see a variety of wildlife, landscapes and learn about how the Masai for generations have lived in harmony with their surroundings.
