Upon arrival in Nairobi, you will be warmly welcomed and transferred to Hemingways Nairobi, a serene haven of elegance in the lush Karen suburbs. After your journey, you’ll settle into your spacious suite overlooking the Ngong Hills, a perfect spot to unwind and adjust to the rhythm of Africa. The hotel’s tranquil gardens, inviting pool, and exceptional dining options make it ideal for families looking to rest and relax after their flight. Enjoy a delicious dinner at the terrace restaurant as you take in the evening breeze and the beauty of Nairobi’s skyline before turning in for a peaceful night’s rest.

After a hearty breakfast, you’ll take a scenic flight north to Laikipia, where the wilderness of Loisaba Conservancy awaits. You’ll be met on arrival and driven to the luxurious Loisaba Tented Camp, perched high on the escarpment with panoramic views of the rolling plains below. Your spacious tent combines modern comfort with authentic safari style complete with large verandas perfect for watching elephants and giraffes wander by. After lunch, head out for your first game drive across the conservancy before returning for dinner and a relaxing evening around the campfire as you soak in the peaceful sounds of the African night.

The next two days will be filled with adventure, discovery, and unforgettable wildlife encounters. Begin your mornings with the golden glow of sunrise before setting out on guided game drives to spot elephants, zebras, lions, and more. Loisaba offers a variety of family-friendly activities from guided bush walks and horse or camel rides to learning about the local Samburu culture. You can even visit the Loisaba anti-poaching unit to meet the tracker dogs that help protect wildlife. Afternoons can be spent relaxing by the infinity pool overlooking the plains or sharing stories of the day over dinner beneath the stars.

After breakfast, you’ll board your flight to the world-famous Masai Mara, where you’ll be met and transferred to Hemingways Ol Seki Mara. This exclusive camp offers the perfect balance of comfort and wilderness for families. Your elegant tented suite comes with panoramic views of the Mara plains and all the amenities you could need. After settling in, enjoy an evening game drive and witness the savannah come alive with wildlife. As night falls, gather around the campfire for stories and stargazing before retiring to your tent for a restful night.

These two days promise some of the most exciting wildlife experiences of your trip. Rise early for an optional sunrise game drive when predators are most active, and keep your eyes peeled for the Big Five. For a truly unforgettable experience, you can opt for a hot air balloon safari (optional, at extra cost), offering a breathtaking view of the Mara from above, followed by a bush breakfast on the plains. Midday offers time to relax, swim, or visit a nearby Maasai village to learn about their traditions. Evenings bring more family time around the fire, enjoying hearty meals and the magic of the African night.

After your final breakfast in the heart of the Mara, surrounded by the sounds of the savannah, it’s time to bid farewell to Kenya’s wild landscapes. Take in a last glimpse of the sweeping plains before your transfer to the airstrip for your flight to Nairobi. Upon arrival, you’ll be met and assisted to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) for your international departure. As your plane ascends over the vast African landscape, you’ll carry with you cherished memories of close wildlife encounters, golden sunsets, and the warmth of Kenya’s people. This journey through the Mara is more than just a safari, it’s a story of adventure, discovery, and connection that will stay with you long after you’ve returned home.
