Mix'n'Match Supreme

This safari itinerary was designed for a family in which the parents had spent time growing up in East Africa. They now wished to bring their own children back to explore some of the areas that they themselves had enjoyed as child. The itinerary was put together over a period of two months, with discussions about various areas, the animals, the landscapes, the activities as well as the budget! Eventually we arrived with the itinerary below which explores the Mountain rivers and forests of Mount Kenya, the dry, arid wilderness of the Laikipia Samburu region, the desert and fossil area of Lake Turkana, the lush green forests of Mount Elgon and the hustle and bustle of a small border trading town at Kitale.
