Classic Kenya
Stay in stunning safari camps and encounter spectacular wildlife in two of Kenya’s top national parks.
Your trip starts in Nairobi with tow nights at the amazing Giraffe Manor. Situated just outside the city and surrounded by acres of indigenous forest, this is the prefect place to relax on arrival and get to know the resident herd of Rothschild Giraffe as they join you at the breakfast table or poke their heads through the windows. From here, you will fly straight into the Maasai Mara for a 2 night stay in Kenya’s most famous safari spot. Enjoy game drives day and night, bush breakfast and a variety of other activities as you spend your time spotting incredible wildlife including lions, zebra, leopards and hippos as well as the chance to experience the incredible relationship of the Maasai tribe with the natural world. Next, you will head to Amboseli National Park which is famous for its herds of elephant and views of Mount Kilimanjaro across the border into Tanzania. You will spend two nights here, enjoying a safari in a different location and soaking up the stunning wildlife and surroundings. Head out on game drives, take a guided walk to learn about the local Maasai community or simply relax in the swimming pool. The only guarantee is you won’t want to leave.

Ol Seki Hemingways Mara is located in the heart of the Naboisho Conservancy which borders the Maasai Mara Reserve and offers an incredibly private safari experience. The camp has ten exclusive tents each featuring breath-taking views. The tents are expertly designed to offer secluded privacy with spacious accommodation in safari-chic. These low impact structures are camouflaged by the landscapes and are fashioned for sustainability. Every tent sits on a private vantage point up on the rocky escarpment offering a 270 degree view of the bush and the wildlife from your bed.
