A front row seat to Kenya's wildest season.
Welcome to the Kenya Project with Alavida, a carefully timed group adventure designed for solo travelers seeking Africa at its most iconic. Taking place during the Great Migration, this journey brings you deep into the Maasai Mara for three unforgettable nights, where vast herds of wildebeest and zebra move across the plains in one of the world’s most extraordinary wildlife spectacles. This is a trip shaped by nature, shared moments, and the excitement of experiencing Kenya at its absolute peak.
Throughout the journey, you will travel across some of Kenya’s most legendary landscapes. From sunrise game drives in the Maasai Mara during migration season, to cycling through the dramatic scenery of Hell’s Gate National Park, and sailing across the calm waters of Lake Naivasha, every day blends world-class wildlife with hands-on adventure. Kenya Project with Alavida is designed to be social, energetic, and deeply immersive.
