8 days · From $3180 per person · Easy pace · 4-12 guests

Overview

Built for families travelling across generations at once, grandparents, parents, and kids together, which changes what a good itinerary actually looks like: shorter travel days, lodges with both family rooms and quieter separate rooms, and enough built-in rest that nobody in the group is pushed past their own pace. Eight days across the Mara and Amboseli covers two flagship destinations without anyone feeling rushed, and every lodge on this circuit is chosen specifically for handling a mixed-age group well, not just families with young kids.

Highlights

• Two flagship destinations covered without rushing any age group in the party
• Lodges chosen for both family-room and quieter separate-room configurations
• Built-in rest days so no generation is pushed past its own comfortable pace
• Flexible activity options each day, some guests can rest while others drive
• Guides briefed specifically for mixed-age, multi-generational groups

Frequently Asked Questions

Can older or less mobile family members skip a day’s drive?

Yes, the built-in rest day and flexible-pace days are designed exactly for this, nobody in the group has to join every activity to keep the trip working for everyone else.

Is 8 days manageable for a wide age range?

That’s specifically what this itinerary is built to handle, with more rest built in than our standard circuits and lodges chosen for comfort across a mixed-age group.
