- Day 6 - 8: Diani, Kenya
Day 1 - 2: Nairobi, Kenya
- Relax in the top hotel in Nairobi, and enjoy the view of Karen Blixen’s blue Ngong hills from the stylish bar.
- This is our favourite place for a great steak in east Africa
This is much more than a layover hotel – relax in the top hotel in Nairobi, and enjoy the view of Karen Blixen’s blue Ngong hills from the stylish bar.
Once you’ve landed in Nairobi, you’ll spend one night at the elegant Hemingways hotel before starting your Kenyan adventure. This elegant boutique hotel is the perfect place to rest your head and unwind before starting a safari; dip into the outdoor pool, drink tea on the terrace overlooking the Ngong Hills and taste high-class international cuisine. If you have the time, get a taste of the local wildlife by visiting orphaned elephants at the David Sheldrick Wildlife and endangered giraffes at the Giraffe Centre.
Day 2 - 4: Maasai Mara, Kenya
- One of the most luxurious and atmospheric tented camps in Africa
- The camp is located within a conservancy, which gives guests the flexibility to game drive day and night
We love Mara Plains because it’s right in the heart of the action, offering a truly authentic safari experience delivered in the most luxurious and stylish setting.
Begin your safari experience with a flight to the Maasai Mara and spend three nights at Mara Plains, soaking up sensational views from the free standing bath from inside your luxury canvas tents. Set in 475,00 acres of game reserve in Olare Orok Conservancy and Mara North Conservancy, this small camp allows guests to get up close with herds of animals, spot wildlife from open game drive vehicles, hot air balloons and joining top guides on bush walks. Wake to chirping birdsong and fall asleep to distant sounds of roaring lions from the comfort of your own tent.
Day 4 - 6: Chyulu Hills, Kenya
- Ol Donyo is a modern luxurious safari lodge, but with a fantastic rich history
- This is a real playground of wonderful wildlife experiences, incredible community and conservation projects
Experience one of Africa’s most beautiful landscapes – the land of big tusker bull elephants, wide plains and views of Mount Kilimanjaro.
Situated in southeast Kenya, Ol Donyo is an exclusive lodge lying in the remote foothills of the rolling Chyulu Hills, where guests have the animals to themselves. Spend three nights in luxury stand-alone villas that boast rooftop ‘star-beds’ and private verandahs overlooking Mount Kilimanjaro and the savanna. For those wanting horseback safaris, choose between daytime, afternoon or overnight trails. Alternatively, spot wildlife whilst cycling to Seduction Rock for sundowners, on game drives from open-top vehicles or simply from your private plunge pool as they migrate to the watering hole.
Day 6 - 8: Diani, Kenya
- The butler service, food and massages are all included – relax in style with clifftop views of paradise
- There’s a big risk you’ll never want to leave
Travel south from the Chyulu Hills to Diani and finish your trip on the beach with four nights at Alfajiri villas. Considered the most exclusive property on the Kenyan coast, choose between three stunning villas of unrivalled luxury and opulence, where private pools overlook the turquoise Indian Ocean. Acting as an ideal base for unwinding, you can snorkel in the local coral reefs, walk along the endless white sand and pamper yourself with a massage. For those seeking more adventure, upgrade with activities such as deep-sea fishing, kite-surfing, golf and jet ski safaris. Once you’ve finished relaxing in paradise, return to Nairobi to catch your international flight home.
