Travel advice you can trust

Can you recommend any safari locations you can reach by road from Nairobi instead of flying?

Dave changed the title to Safari by road vs flying? .

Yes! There are lots, here's a few that I'd recommend:

Nairobi National Park and David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust – 30 minutes from the airport!
Lake Naivasha, Cresent Island and Hell's Gate – approx two hours
Lake Nakuru National Park – approx three hours
Soysambu Conservancy – approx three hours
Aberdare National Park – three to four hours
Ol-Pejeta Conservancy – four hours
Amboseli National Park – four hours
You can get to the Masai Mara and Tsavo East/West by road, but they're both closer to a six hour drive. But you could break up the journey with a stop at one of the above locations on the way. Most of our itineraries are road based and work this way.
