Q: What wildlife can I expect to see?
A: The Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, rhino), cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, plus chimpanzees at Ol Pejeta.

Q: Is this safari suitable for families?
A: Yes, but best for children aged 7+ due to flight luggage limits and lodge restrictions.

Q: Can I add a beach extension?
A: Absolutely—after the Mara, you can fly to Diani, Lamu, or Zanzibar for an Indian Ocean beach retreat.

Q: Is Ol Pejeta worth including?
A: Yes—it’s one of Africa’s best rhino sanctuaries, with the chance to see the last northern white rhinos on earth.
