Kenya Migration Photography Safari

The Kenya Migration Photography Safari puts a maximum of four guests in an open safari vehicle with a professional wildlife photographer who coaches you through every game drive: composition, light, timing, and the techniques that separate a snapshot from a standout image. The journey is timed for the Great Wildebeest Migration and the Big Five are year-round constants at Rekero Camp on the Mara River.

Between the full-day game drives at prime crossing points, a sunrise hot air balloon safari delivers aerial perspectives that no ground drive can replicate. A Maasai village visit and campfire storytelling evenings add cultural texture to the wildlife-rich days.

For a longer Kenyan wildlife itinerary, the 7 Days Flying Kenya Safari covers Ol Pejeta and the Mara in a week. The 11 Days Kenya Wildlife Safari extends the journey to Amboseli, Samburu, and Naboisho.
