Amazing Animals, Resorts, and Scenery
7-day Amonoseli to Lake Naivasha to Lake Nakuru to Masia Mara Bring binoculars! Even when you're close to the animals using the binoculars makes it feels like you are living in an episode of a nature documentary. We selected camptrek after getting 5 quotes and from our research they were the best pick for a balance of luxury and cost. You'll be staying at the same spot as other groups so it really comes down to price and your driver. You can look up the resorts individually and spot which companies charge more for cheaper rooms, we found camptrek had the best value here. https://kibosafaricamp.com/ ^this set the bar so high. The dinning area has a giant tree growing out of it, an ostrich went swimming with us, and there's a nice walking path. https://www.lakenaivasha-soparesort.com/ ^wildlife everywhere (giraffe, zebra, hippo, etc.). Close runner up for favorite. https://www.sopalodges.com/lake-nakuru-sopa-lodge/the-lodge ^Great room with good view. But top two offered more. https://zebraplainscollection.com/zebra-river-camp/ ^this was a wet blanket after the other spots. It just didn't have the same wow factor. We had seen hippos from our room at Naivasha so the viewing tower was cool but not the same level. The fans were so loud we just slept without any covers. The hot water had no pressure and there were no locks on the doors. The live music and staff were good but couldn't compensate for the place itself. Neither could the food, which was the best we had all trip (inc. Radisson Arboretum and Kempinski*) but much less of a selection then other resorts. *This is meant for business people and we had just come off a 5 day trek. Don't stay here unless you want to "feel fancy," go to Radisson Arboretum instead for a better overall experience. We had a great time with our driver Ben. We always felt safe around the animals, driving between resorts, and at resorts. A lot of the time you can see all the other resort vehicles around you, and I can confirm that we were always near the front of the pack able to see. Often even the closest to the action. The two books he had in his car are worth flipping through and keeping track of what you have seen/learning about the animals/birds. Read the forwards in the books to really appreciate what they took to make, no AI garbage back then. The wildlife is striking and the scenery something to truly behold. A good mix of tropical and desert. The two lakes felt very different from Mara and Amboseli, creating a unique experience each day. The food is buffet style and some items are great others only okay. The desserts are "European style" (low sugar) but this grew on us a lot. Kenyans, the subset we interacted with at least, call fruit dessert so appreciate the health benefits and buy oreos/similar at a rest stop if you need them (which we did for ice cream, my greatest vice). The hell's gate bike ride and lake boat tour are definitely worth it. The walking safari at Naivasha was good but it does take some time that might be better spent enjoying the cool Naivasha Sopa Resort! So if money/time allows do it but don't feel you have to. Masia tribe visit was very quick then they want you to buy things. Supporting them is worth it but you could cut this and not miss much. Note with 7 days and 4 locations you move frequently and spend 4-6 hours in a car regularly moving locations. This is unavoidable without adding more days or reducing locations. The driving took it's toll but we wouldn't change what we did, although if you have the time/money add a day or two!

Camptrek Safaris is a highly professional, detail-oriented tour operator!
We had an excellent experience with Camptrek Safari from start to finish. The entire trip was well organized and exceeded our expectations. Rose, who helped plan the safari, was extremely communicative and detail-oriented. She provided clear, timely information throughout the planning process and made sure all our questions were answered, which made everything feel smooth and stress-free. Our driver and guide, Erick, was truly outstanding. He was highly knowledgeable, patient, and an excellent driver across all terrains. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to see all of the Big Five, witness a real hunt, and capture incredible photos. He consistently positioned the vehicle perfectly for wildlife viewing and photography and never rushed us. Overall, Camptrek Safari delivered a professional, memorable, and high-quality safari experience. I would highly recommend them and would absolutely book with them again.

Amazing first time safari! Learned so much and everyday exceeded my expectations.
Our first safari and it exceeded all expectations! Though you cannot control nature, you can control which company will be your safari guide and we are very happy we chose CampTrek. Ben was a phenomenal guide and very personable. He taught us a lot about the animals and always had a keen instinct for putting us in the best position to get great photos and videos. He was not only a great guide but a great friend throughout this journey. I encourage anyone looking to get the most out of their safari to play an active role in your journey, it’s so much fun to stand up in the landcruiser and scour the vast landscape for even the most elusive creatures. My wife and I were fortunate enough to find a leopard, many lions, a cheetah, and some of the most beautiful birds I’ve ever seen. The trip was honestly one of the greatest I’ve ever had, and I travel a lot, and I would not hesitate to do this again.

Our driver Ben gave us the most amazing holiday!
Our driver Ben gave us the most amazing holiday! While we were waiting for the wildebeest to cross the river during the Great Migration, he didn’t just have us sit and wait around — instead, he took us to explore nearby areas, like the border and rivers where we could see hippos and crocodiles. It made the whole experience so much more fun and exciting! Ben also shared so much knowledge about the animals — how to tell different types of gazelles apart, and the habits of leopards, cheetahs, and lions. He’s absolutely incredible at spotting wildlife. Many times, he’d point something out, and it would take us a while before we could even see what he was looking at! Every time we made a wish, Ben did everything he could to make it happen — taking us to see big cats hunting, or finding all sorts of adorable baby animals. We can’t recommend Ben enough! We’re already dreaming about coming back soon for another safari adventure with him. 我們的司機Ben帶我們度過了一個完美的假期 在馬賽馬拉國家公園我們等待動物大遷徙牛羚渡河的時候，沒有一直留在原地等待而是會帶我們到附近的國界跟到河川找河馬看鱷魚。 Ben也教了我們很多動物相關的知識,像是怎麼分辨蹬羚，花豹獵豹獅子的習性等。而且ben的很會找動物，常常他找到動物，我們看半天都還沒發現。 每次我們許願,Ben都會盡心盡力幫我們達成，像是幫我們找大貓狩獵的現場，帶我們去找各種的動物寶寶。 非常推薦Ben，相信在不久的未來我們會再去找Ben載我們去遊獵找動物。

Wonderful bespoke experience
Camptrek Safaris gave our relatively large group the experience of a lifetime. John Njoroge and his team worked with us to design a tailor-made tour both in terms of the time, what we saw and experienced, and the cost. Communication with them was seamless and prompt even though we all live half a world away. John and Lucy answered every query thoroughly and with good humor within hours of being asked. And they provided excellent direction and support for obtaining documents and other issues. The safari itself was superb. We covered Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Nukuru, and Masai Mara. The accommodations were very good - glamping at its most fun- and came in on budget John and the drivers who accompanied us—Pili Pili and Benson—clearly strove to give us a maximum experience by exposing us to all the wildlife possible. They worked tirelessly to ensure each sighting was better than the last and everyday was full. And they succeeded! Importantly, Pili Pili and Benson are highly skilled and careful drivers over exceedingly challenging terrain. Most of all, John and his team made this almost an extended family safari. They were caring and attentive and we learned so much from them both about the animals and about Kenya. I highly reccomend Camptrek.

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
7-Days Wildlife and Outdoor activities in kenya: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does 7-Days Wildlife and Outdoor activities in kenya cost?
+
Prices start at $7,307 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nairobi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 7-Days Wildlife and Outdoor activities in kenya take?
+
Plan for about 168 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nairobi is not rushed.
Is 7-Days Wildlife and Outdoor activities in kenya worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 7-Days Wildlife and Outdoor activities in kenya?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 7-Days Wildlife and Outdoor activities in kenya suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 168-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 7-Days Wildlife and Outdoor activities in kenya?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nairobi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nairobi and add a light layer if any part of the 168-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 7-Days Wildlife and Outdoor activities in kenya start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nairobi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nairobi?
+
On Outty we rank every Nairobi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Wild 5-Day Safari: Magical Mara, Nakuru Wonders & Hell's Gate, 2 Days Amboseli Safari using a 4x4 Landcruiser jeep(with options), Kibera Slum Tour with Lucas. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nairobi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nairobi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 7-Days Wildlife and Outdoor activities in kenya?
+
Included: Hotels, lodges and Camps; All park entrance fees; Lunch; Dinner; and Breakfast. Not included: Tips; and International flights. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+

What languages is 7-Days Wildlife and Outdoor activities in kenya offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, Chinese, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

+
