DESTINATION
Nairobi, Kenya
Historic Nairobi is definitely worth more than just a night. Visit orphaned elephants and rhinos rescued by the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Hand-feed a giraffe at The Giraffe Center. And you shouldn’t miss the Karen Blixen Museum or the African curio markets!
ACCOMMODATION | 1 NIGHT
House of Waine
This grand mansion-style hotel is on the edge of Nairobi's leafy suburbs, close to the Karen Blixen Museum, Giraffe Center, and Daphne Sheldrick Wildlife Sanctuary. Start or finish your Kenyan safari in style, with a comfortable stay here.
Travel Itinerary: Day 2-5
DESTINATION
Amboseli National Park, Kenya
How would like to wake up to a view of Mt Kilimanjaro with a foraging bull elephant in the foreground? Walking safaris, night game drives, and interaction with local Maasai communities make for an irresistible combination in this coveted national park. Your tented camp lies on a large private reserve, adjacent to Amboseli National Park allowing for these spectacular opportunities.
ACCOMMODATION | 3 NIGHTS
Tortilis Camp
Dedicated guides introduce you to Amboseli's much-researched elephants at this genteel, tented camp with Mount Kilimanjaro views. An excellent spot to go for bush walks with a Maasai who knows the land intimately - or visit the manyatta (village).
Travel Itinerary: Day 5-8
DESTINATION
Mount Kenya & Laikipia, Kenya
Horseback or camel rides anyone? With more than 2 million acres of private ranches, the Laikipia plateau stretches from Mt. Kenya to the Rift Valley and allows plenty of breathing room between game drivers. This ancient migratory corridor offers fine game viewing and the opportunity to see the rarer species such as wild dog, reticulated giraffe and Grevy’s zebra. Incredible lodges offer activities with local Samburu guides. Your own private Africa!
ACCOMMODATION | 3 NIGHTS
Lewa House
The Lewa experience is based around its importance as a wildlife conservancy and elephant migration corridor within Mt. Kenya UNESCO World Heritage Site. In between horse or camel rides, walks and drives, enjoy the pool and lavish meals in sheer comfort.
Travel Itinerary: Day 8-11
DESTINATION
Masai Mara National Reserve, Kenya
It is a wonder to see first-hand the red-robed Maasai coexisting with the large game of Africa. The Masai Mara offers a wide array of camps and lodges, ranging from colonial “Out of Africa” style to modern Maasai. Hot air balloons soar into the vast skies above this tribal land, and from July to September, you will witness thousands of animals migrating from the Serengeti. The Big Five is almost always a game drive away.
ACCOMMODATION | 3 NIGHTS
Mara Plains
Rarely a night passes at this tented camp, without lions roaring while you sit around the campfire. Leopards regularly wander through camp, and cheetahs claim the savanna. The migration brings a time of plenty for all these predators!
