Safari Update Travels LTD
Safari Update Travels is a Nairobi based, TRA registered tour operator. Since 2016, we've been building tailor made Kenya safari and Tanzania safari itineraries, planned by a team that knows the parks well enough to route your trip around where the wildlife actually is.
Where to go
Each park has its own season. The Maasai Mara peaks with the Great Migration from July to October. Amboseli offers elephant sightings against Kilimanjaro almost year round. The Serengeti carries that same migration deeper into Tanzania. We track these patterns closely so your Kenya safari lands you in the right place at the right time.
Combined safaris
The Maasai Mara and Serengeti are one ecosystem split by a border. We route combined Kenya and Tanzania safaris to follow the Great Migration across both, no backtracking.

Safari packages
Our safari packages give you a convenient starting point, but they do not have to stay exactly as listed. We can adjust the number of days, destinations, accommodation, activities and pace to suit your plans.
Plan Ahead
Peak season camps across the Maasai Mara and Serengeti fill up to a year ahead. Booking early gives you the better choice on accommodation and routing for your 2026 or 2027 trip.

Whether you are travelling with 2 people or 50, we can arrange dedicated vehicles, private itineraries and accommodation suited to your budget. One coordinator helps manage your safari from enquiry to your return home.

A Kenya safari is about more than visiting famous parks and going on game drives. The planning, timing, choice of destinations, accommodation and knowledge of the area all contribute to the experience.
Wildlife is unpredictable, which is why we do not treat every Kenya safari as a fixed schedule. Our guides use their knowledge of the parks, seasonal conditions and current sightings to make practical decisions while you are in the field.
The process
Tell us your travel dates, interests, budget and what you would like to experience. A safari specialist will help you get started.
We create a day by day Kenya safari itinerary based on your travel dates, preferred destinations, seasonal conditions and travel style.
Adjust the accommodation, pace, activities and inclusions until the itinerary suits you. No pressure.
From arrival to your homeward flight, our team and safari guides are available to support you throughout your trip.
