Kenya Wildlife Safari
- Magic of Kenya Safari Tour - 7 Days
We saw all the big 5 plus many more animals. Scenery was spectacular, including clear views of Kilimanjaro. Lots of driving but worth it to see so many different landscapes and wildlife
Tolle Tour. Die Wege zwischen den Parks sind lange und Anstrenged, darf nicht unterschätzt werden. Aber mit unserem Driver "Samuel" waren auch diese sehr interessant.

What our customers ask about Kenya Tours for Solo Travelers
What accommodation options are available for solo travelers in Kenya tours?
Kenya's tour accommodations range from city hotels to wilderness camps with options for every budget. Places like the Tamarind Tree Hotel in Nairobi and AA Lodge in Amboseli National Park are common stops. Many tours pair same-gender solo travelers to share rooms helping avoid extra costs though private rooms are available for a fee. One TourRadar traveler notes: "The lodges were excellent especially Fig Tree Camp in Masai Mara with superb staff and an excellent chef."
What's the best time of year for solo travelers to visit Kenya?
The Great Migration draws most visitors to Kenya from July to October when group tours are plentiful and the social scene is at its peak. Another popular window runs through January and February during the dry season when wildlife is easy to spot. TourRadar data shows September and October lead in solo safari bookings with many travelers choosing these months for their Kenya adventure.
How much free time do solo travelers get on Kenya safari tours?
A 6-8 day safari gives you enough time to see Kenya's highlights while getting to know your travel group. Popular routes like the Kenya Classic fit key spots such as Masai Mara Lake Nakuru and Amboseli into a week-long journey. One TourRadar traveler notes: "Our 6-day wilderness trek was perfect - enough time to see everything while really getting to know our fellow travelers and create lasting friendships."
Which areas of Kenya are most recommended for solo travelers?
The Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru stand out for solo travel thanks to their well-developed tourism setup and social atmosphere. Camps like Sentrim Mara in the Masai Mara offer group meals and shared game drives. At Lake Nakuru lodges such as Sarova Lion Hill you'll find organized activities and welcoming common spaces. A TourRadar traveler shares: "The Masai Mara was amazing - our group bonded quickly over shared wildlife sightings and evening sundowners."
Do I need to be particularly outgoing to enjoy a solo Kenya safari?
Tour groups typically range from 6-12 people making it easy to find your comfort zone. At places like Enchoro Wildlife Camp in Masai Mara safari vehicles seat 6-7 guests giving everyone a window seat for wildlife watching. A TourRadar traveler shares: "I did a 7-day safari in Kenya and had so much fun. I joined the group alone but felt at ease with others and the guide Max."
