Welcome to Kenya! Once landed at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, a member of the Explore Africa Tour team will meet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel.

Save your stomach, because our welcome dinner in the evening is best enjoyed on an empty stomach! Dine on traditional African food and meet the entire Explore Africa group.
Day 2
If you’ve never had a cup of Kenyan tea, you’re in for a treat. Kenya is renowned for their tea farms and we’re off to visit the place where tea growing began in Kenya 100 years ago. Not only will we learn about the history of Kenya tea farming in the Ngong Hills but we will have the opportunity to hear first hand about the the process of cultivating tea and view the lush tea fields.
We’ll take a break to chow down on lunch and then it’s off to the Nairobi National Museum to learn more about the rich culture and heritage of Kenya.

The Maasai known for raising cattle, but are also known to be fearsome hunters and warriors.
After a long day on the road, we will check into our camp site, it’s safe to say you've got the evening to yourselves.
DAY 4
A safari is a quintessential African experience, and Kenya is one of the best places on the continent to view one. We hit the savannah early for a morning safari with hopes to see the diverse wildlife in Kenya. Be ready to be wowed by the BIG 5, the legends of the Africa wilderness, elephants, lions, buffalos, leopards and rhinos. As it is peak migration season, we hope to have an unforgettable experience.
You have the afternoon at your leisure, but when the sun sets, we’re off to an evening safari. P.S. There are no two safaris alike!
DAY 5
It’s time to head back to the city. We pack things up and hit the road back to Nairobi. On the way back we visit, Hell’s Gate National Park, where creators of the Lion King travelled to find inspiration for the movie. While at the park, you'll get to see the real life inspiration for Pride Rock.
