Kenya Family Safari – 15 Days

Your flight will arrive at Nairobi’s International Airport where you will be met and transferred to the House of Waine, a peaceful boutique hotel set in verdant gardens in Nairobi’s upmarket suburb of Karen. This is a great place for everyone to relax after the long flight. You have 2 nights here to take in some of the local attractions in Nairobi and acclimatize to the African landscape. The hotel has beautifully maintained 2.5 acre garden and heated swimming pool and is close to local markets.

Other highlights this vibrant capital city enjoys are the Snake Park, Giraffe Centre and an Animal Orphanage!

This boutique hotel offers a wide selection of rooms which makes travelling with the family easy. The rooms overlook the gardens and make use of Africa’s great natural light.

Transfer to Nairobi’s Wilson airport for a flight north to the less well known but beautifully wild Samburu National Park. You will be met at the Airstrip and transferred to the lodge.

Samburu Intrepids is deep in the Samburu Bush and enjoys a unique perspective on the Uaso Nyiro River banks. The luxury tented lodge offers 27 modern tents with private views over the rich river banks. The tents are spacious and en-suite. The lodge public areas are raised on stilts and open to the elements. The outdoor terrace has great views onto the river and there is a swimming pool with shady relaxing areas for those hot afternoons.

Samburu is still one of those undiscovered off the beaten track gems that Africa manages to keep secret. This is remote and untamed wilderness guaranteeing close encounters with elephant, leopard and other game, including species unique to the area.

Here you get to enjoy game drives twice a day, walking safari’s outside the main reserve, bush breakfasts and romantic dinners under the stars, and specially chosen spots for those magical sundowner drinks that Africa is famous for. The Young Rangers Club will keep your kids busy exploring and learning while you enjoy your stunning surroundings.

Fly back to Nairobi after breakfast and your transfer will be waiting at the airport for you. Today you head out of this capital city to the Great Rift Valley Lodge about 2 hours drive away. The Great Rift Valley is one of the greatest natural structures on earth. The Lodge has a magnificent setting 7,000 feet above the Valley. The views are spectacular and include Lake Naivasha, volcanoes and mountains and of course the amazing Rift Valley.

You can relax and enjoy your beautiful surroundings or take up some of the many activities on offer. From golf to horse riding, and sightseeing to bird watching at the many lakes in the area.

The rooms all have spectacular views and private balconies. The family suites have interleading doors and make for spacious accommodation. This is a great retreat where the kids can enjoy child orientated games and walks, treasure hunts, and other outdoor activities with the Adventurers Club.

After breakfast you will transfer by road back to Nairobi and connect to the flight into the Masai Mara. Your guide will meet you at the airstrip and transfer you to the lodge with a game drive en-route. You have 3 nights at the Mara Intrepids Camp to enjoy the spectacle of this famous Kenyan highlight. Set in the vast savannah grasslands the lodge has been built on the banks of the Talek River. The Camp has 2 family tents which include 2 bedrooms, a spacious lounge area and an outside deck overlooking the river. The tents have a modern interior with an African twist.

The Masai Mara is one of the best game viewing locations in the world! The wild vast open plains make animal spotting easy and the massive herds during the Great Migration also help – there are always predators following! You get to enjoy game drives, 3 times a day if you wish, looking for those incredible wildlife sightings. Enjoy bush breakfasts and dinners, to really feel at one with your surroundings. Of course no trip to Africa is complete without that amazing sunset spot!

The kids enjoy the Adventurers Club where they get to learn about this amazing environment, they get to mix with other children and you get to kick back, relax and take in Africa at her finest!
