If you are longing to go on a riding safari in Africa, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend Safaris Unlimited in Kenya run by Gordie and Felicia Church. They are great believers in the ancient proverb, “it is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness”. They have been most fortunate having outfitted five safaris over the last six months. Kenya is very much open for business, the government has done a sterling job throughout and coupled with the global vaccination roll-out, we are optimistic for the coming season. Current covid protocols can be viewed here >
Please see below the dates and current availability of set departure rides for the 2021 and 2022 safari seasons.
THE MASAI MARA RIDE (8-nights)
The beauty of the greater Mara Conservancies has come to represent the epitome of East Africa. The landscape is one of rolling savannah and acacia woodland, intersected by dark green veins of riverine forest on the banks of the Mara and Olare Orok rivers. This wilderness is an extension of the Serengeti (Tanzania) ecosystem and is considered to be Kenya’s best wildlife sanctuary, where animals can still be seen in vast numbers. Carnivores, antelopes, primates and rodents are some of the mammals to be found. The annual migration of up to one million wildebeest is thrillingly dramatic and considered to be one of the greatest wildlife spectacles in the world. Needless to say, the flora, fauna and birdlife are phenomenal. The Mara is also home to the colourful and handsome Masai people who, with their herds of livestock, are synonymous with the region.
