10 Days Luxury Kenya’s Amboseli, Laikipia & Mara

After breakfast, a morning at leisure, and lunch at Hemingways, you are transferred to Wilson Airport for a 45-minute flight to Amboseli National Park. After touching down, you receive a warm welcome from the Tortilis team and enjoy your first game drive en route to camp.

Set in a prime location for magnificent views of Mount Kilimanjaro, Tortilis Camp offers spacious tented suites with spacious verandas and en suite bathrooms. Because the camp is located in a private conservancy bordering Amboseli National Park, you are able to enjoy special activities like guided walking safaris. Amboseli is home to some of the biggest elephants in Africa, and the guides at Tortilis know the individual elephants and their family histories. If you’re looking for that iconic safari photograph of elephants with Kili in the background, Amboseli is the place to snap it.

The next stop on your Kenya fly-in safari is Loisaba Tented Camp, a luxurious property perched on the edge of an escarpment with unhindered views across Laikipia’s dappled landscape. Your charter flight from Amboseli will depart after breakfast and whisk you off to the gorgeous Laikipia in about 75 minutes. You arrive at Loisaba in time for a delicious lunch. Your spacious and airy tent is custom-designed with big floor-to-ceiling doors and windows, stylish modern furnishings, and a large veranda from which to marvel at the expansive views over the Laikipia plains.

A great way to experience the stunning diversity of Loisaba is on foot, accompanied by traditional Samburu guides whose knowledge of the local flora, fauna, culture and history is extraordinary. You’ll also enjoy game drives in search of iconic animals like giraffe and elephant, and tracking more elusive wildlife like wild dog, Grevy’s zebra, and beisa oryx. Loisaba offers a variety of alternative activities like fishing in the river, visiting the resident anti-poaching team and their friendly sniffer dogs, or going on a camelback safari – a fantastic way to view game.

A memorable highlight of your stay in Laikipia will certainly be your final evening at the Loisaba Star Beds. These handcrafted, four-poster beds sit on raised wooden platforms and are rolled out each evening for guests to enjoy an unforgettable night under an endless blanket of stars. The Loisaba Star Beds overlook a permanent waterhole that’s frequented by resident wildlife, so you’ll also savour some excellent sightings from the comfort of your romantic bed under the Milky Way.

Kenya fly-in safari whisks you to one of the world’s most famous wildlife destinations, the Masai Mara National Reserve. You arrive at Sand River in time for lunch, followed by an afternoon game drive and sundowner drinks in a scenic location.

The camp is set on the banks of the Sand River in a secluded and picturesque area of the Masai Mara National Reserve. It reflects the glamorous heyday of the 1920s when ‘safari’ was a dreamy Out of Africa experience, but with a modern ‘low impact’ philosophy. Sand River Masai Mara lies directly on the Wildebeest Migration route; guests are often fortunate to witness herds of wildebeest and zebra cross the river from the comfort of their tents.

Spend your days going on game drives in the Masai Mara, spotting a plethora of wildlife like elephant, giraffe, topi, eland, buffalo, and the Mara’s famous big cats (lion, leopard, and cheetah). You’ll also have the opportunity to savour a delicious picnic lunch in the wilderness and visit an authentic Maasai village for meaningful interactions with one of

After your final breakfast in the Masai Mara, you fly back to Hemingways in Nairobi where you can enjoy the comfort and convenience of the hotel’s day room. Later, you are transferred to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your outbound flight.
