Maasai Mara Safari

This incredible 12-day backpacking journey takes international travelers deep into Kenya's stunning landscapes and vibrant culture. Launching from Nairobi, it spans the iconic Maasai Mara for unforgettable wildlife safaris, blends camping experiences with cozy hostel stays, and includes explorations of scenic locales. Key moments feature biking through Hell's Gate National Park and swimming in the crystal-clear waters off Diani Beach. Tailored for those seeking adventure, relaxation, and a deep dive into Kenya's rich heritage, this trip is the ultimate East African adventure. *This journey is designed with "open days" to ensure everyone has the freedom to explore as they please. Whether you're drawn to snorkeling in the clear waters, lounging on the beach, enjoying a quiet read at the accommodation, dining in a fancy restaurant, or grabbing a bite from a local caravan, there's room for all preferences. We're all adults here, and this trip celebrates that independence, giving each traveler the liberty to pursue their interests and enjoy the experience in their own unique way. *If your travel style is strictly about sticking to schedules and times without the flexibility to go with the flow, this trip is not for you. We embrace spontaneity and the freedom to explore, making this journey ideal for those who appreciate a mix of planned activities and the liberty to discover new experiences as they come. *In Zanzibar, given the island's compact size, feel free to depart earlier if you wish, accommodating your travel plans or preferences.

Hey there, I'm Pedro from the beautiful Madeira Island. Traveling is my lifeblood, and there's nothing I enjoy more than backpacking to new places, seeking adventures, and making connections along the way. I've wandered through many European countries and braved the icy roads of Iceland in winter. My latest escapade was a thrilling 3-month journey across Indonesia, Thailand, and Malaysia. It's on these journeys that I've realized how sharing stories and experiences can truly amplify the excitement of travel. That's why I've joined this platform, eager to exchange tales and tips with fellow wanderers. Let's share our journeys and make our travels even more memorable together!

In selecting hostels, I prioritize a good balance between cost and quality, aiming for accommodations that are neither the cheapest nor the most expensive. I prefer hostels with a rating above 9 on Booking.com whenever possible, planning for stays in mixed dorms. For those with specific requests, I'm happy to accommodate within the same property for an additional fee. Some destinations will involve camping (they have the equipment) in secure areas but if you prefer to stay in a mix room is possible. Any questions about the trip? You can let me know in the Q&A section!
