Wings over Kenya

Arrive in Nairobi, your gateway to Kenya. You will be picked up from the international airport and dropped off at your hotel in a private vehicle. 

Relax, refresh, and explore the interesting juxtaposition of tradition and modernity in the capital city. Stroll through its bustling markets, admire the many arts and crafts on display and pick up a souvenir or two. The lively city presents plenty of opportunities for up-and-close wildlife interactions too. Get kissed by a giraffe at the Giraffe Center or watch baby elephants frolic at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Both institutions offer insights into wildlife conservation and rehabilitation. Evenings call for time at the city’s most happening restaurants, bars and nightclubs; try out the local cuisine and enjoy live music.

Leave Nairobi for Samburu. You will be transferred from your hotel to Nairobi airport in a private vehicle. The flight duration from Nairobi to Samburu is around one hour. You will be picked up at the Samburu airstrip and taken to your hotel. 

Heed to the call of the wild with a range of activities. Head out on morning and evening game drives to spot Samburu’s Special Five – Grevy’s zebra, Gerenuk antelope, Beisa oryx, Reticulated giraffe and Somali ostrich. For a more intimate understanding of the surrounding ecosystem, sign up for a guided bush walk with an experienced naturalist. Enjoy sundowners by the river, and if you are lucky enough, you will wake up to the unforgettable sight of mighty tuskers strolling past your tent. Take a dip in the plunge pool after a day well spent spotting the Big 5 and savour exquisite meals under a starlit sky.

Today, you will be transferred from your hotel to the Samburu airstrip, where you will catch a flight to the Masai Mara. The duration of the flight is one to two hours. Once you disembark at the Masai Mara airstrip, you will be transferred to your hotel. 

Welcome to the Masai Mara, home to some of Kenya’s most iconic landscapes and experiences. Wake up to surreal sunrises and go on safaris in open-sided vehicles to take in the magic of these acacia-studded grasslands. Experience the thrill of spotting the Big Five and other animals, including giraffes, hyenas, crocodiles and more. Visit the Maasai villages that are as much a part of this landscape as the wildlife and learn about customs and traditions that have remained unchanged for centuries. Relax, refresh with a dip in the pool and enjoy sublime sunsets with a drink in hand. Catch up with fellow travellers around a campfire and enjoy memorable dinners in stunning settings.

Check out Fort Jesus, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a 16th-century structure built to protect Mombasa. Say hello to the residents of Haller Park, an animal sanctuary, sunbathe at Nyali Beach or hire a dhow (traditional boat) and go snorkelling in its warm and crystal clear waters.
