Kenya: Luxury Surana Flying Safari

This nine-night luxury flying safari takes you to two of Kenya's most rewarding safari landscapes, connected by light aircraft rather than miles of road. Beautifully paced, this journey pairs the wild, less-travelled terrain of Buffalo Springs Reserve with the iconic, big-cat country of the Maasai Mara. 

You begin with a night in Nairobi, settling in before the safari begins in earnest. A short flight takes you north to Samburu, where a transfer leads you into Buffalo Springs National Reserve. Three nights at Surana Buffalo Springs Camp introduce you to the reserve's rarer wildlife and the Ewaso Ng'iro River, a part of Kenya far fewer visitors see. From there, a short flight south brings you to four nights at Surana Mara Camp, deep in the Maasai Mara, where lion, cheetah and vast herds move across open grassland. You end with a final night in Nairobi, a gentle return to comfort before the journey home.

Why You’ll Love This Trip! 
This trip never asks you to rush. Two flights replace what would otherwise be hours on dusty roads, leaving more time for what actually matters, a cheetah reading the herd in the Mara, or a reticulated giraffe along the Ewaso Ng'iro in Buffalo Springs, a landscape so few visitors ever see. There's space too for stillness, a plunge pool after a morning drive, a yoga session as the camp wakes up. And just when the safari feels behind you, Nairobi gives you one more lovely moment, a long lunch at the Fairmont The Norfolk, 120 years of history, before you head home with the bush still fresh in your mind.
