HAND-MADE EXPERIENTIAL SAFARIS

Trust us to find you the rarest animals, the most spectacular wildlife events, the remotest landscapes and deeply meaningful cultural encounters!

Experience the best of Kenya with an owner-run lodge in the world-renowned Maasai Mara. Twice-daily game drives, guided walks, and bush meals bring you face-to-face with the Big 5 and sweeping savannahs, while visits to a Maasai village offer authentic cultural insight. The journey ends on Kenya’s southern coast, where palm-fringed beaches and turquoise waters provide the perfect setting for barefoot relaxation.

Discover the Big 5 on the Mara’s vast savannahs, then unwind on Kenya’s sun-drenched southern beaches.

Highlights


  • An intimate off-the-grid safari camp - no crowds

  • Dramatic Mara River crossings during the great wildebeest migration season

  • Activities include daily game drives with experienced Maasai guides to find the Big 5 (elephant, rhino, lion, leopard and buffalo), birdwatching, hot-air ballooning, traditional Maasai village and local market visit, swimming in the Sand River waterfalls, bush meals and sundowners

  • The best chance to see black rhinos in the Maasai Mara-Serengeti ecosystem

  • Unwind in barefoot paradise on secluded beaches, swim in warm Indian Ocean waters, and soak up coastal tranquillity.

  • The perfect Balance - Combine the exhilaration of safari with the calm of a private beach retreat.

Locations


  • Nairobi. Kenya’s bustling capital is where modern Africa meets the wild. In the leafy suburb of Karen, conservation and culture intertwine – from the rescued elephants of the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to the endangered Rothschild’s giraffes at the Giraffe Centre. In Nairobi, colonial-era history, literary legacy and modern-day conservation blend seamlessly, offering a fascinating introduction to Kenya’s story.

  • Maasai Mara National Reserve. Kenya’s most celebrated wilderness, the Maasai Mara, is the stage for Africa’s great wildlife drama – from the thunder of the Great Migration to intimate predator encounters in the golden grasslands. Year-round, it offers extraordinary diversity and energy, the essence of safari itself.

  • Diani Beach. Kenya’s southern coast is a sanctuary of relaxation, where white-sand beaches, coral reefs, and dhow traditions provide a serene contrast to the savannah. The private beaches at the Southern end of Diani border sacred coastal forest and the Indian Ocean. These secluded beaches, located well away from neighbouring resorts, offer rare privacy, natural beauty and a deep sense of place.

Lodges


  • 1 night at Karen Blixen Coffee & Cottages: a boutique retreat set within lush gardens on historic grounds, offering elegant rooms, warm hospitality, and easy access to Nairobi’s cultural highlights.

  • 5 nights at Enkewa Camp: an intimate tented camp in a private concession of the Maasai Mara, offering game drives, guided walks, and great value

  • 5 nights at Kinondo Kwetu: a family-owned coastal hideaway on the Indian Ocean, with beachfront cottages and personalised service

Timing


The best time to enjoy this safari and beach journey is from July to October, when the Maasai Mara hosts the Great Migration and the coast enjoys dry, sunny days. For a quieter experience, November to March offers excellent predator sightings, lush green landscapes, and warm ocean conditions — ideal for couples and travellers seeking both adventure and relaxation.

You can enjoy this safari at any time of year, with careful planning. Our safari experts will help you make the best timing decision.

Safari tips

“Golden photo opportunities”

Linda Fox, AG Kenya safari expert: "One of my favourite moments in the Maasai Mara was setting out at dawn to photograph lions, golden light in their manes, eyes fixed on us and set against the Mara’s sweeping savannahs, winding rivers, and dramatic escarpments."

Why choose us to craft your safari?

Handcrafted experiential safaris since 1991.

Travel in Africa is about knowing when and where to go, and with whom. A few weeks too early/late or a few kilometres off course, and you could miss the greatest show on Earth. And wouldn’t that be a pity?
