Created especially for wildlife enthusiasts and lovers of the outdoors, this exceptional adventure touches on Kenya’s most scenic wildlife areas.
Delve deeper into the African bush on the wide open plains of the Laikipia Plateau. Experience an adventure that breaks away from the traditional, such as a camel or horseback safari. Enjoy picturesque landscapes filled with rolling hills.
Travel to the home of classic safari and explore the best-known landscapes of Kenya. The Masai Mara is the home of one of the world’s most spectacular natural phenomena, the Great Migration. When not playing host to hundreds of thousands of migrating wildebeest, here, crimson-clad Samburu and Maasai warriors tend their herds among vast numbers of resident wildlife.
Spoil yourself with a hot air balloon safari during your stay at andBeyond Kichwa Tembo — don’t miss the unique experience of floating almost silently over the Mara.
