Embark on an unforgettable Wildlife & Beach Bliss Escape in Kenya, tailored to thrill seekers and relaxation lovers alike. Over 10 nights, traverse pristine bushland, track Africa’s legendary “big five” in two premier reserves, then drift away to a private island retreat. This carefully crafted journey blends exhilarating fly-in safaris with serene beachfront leisure—perfect for couples, families and solo travellers seeking both adventure and rejuvenation.
Why Choose you Luxury Kenyan Wildlife & Beach Escape for Your Next Luxury Holiday?
Kenya boasts some of the world’s most iconic wildlife habitats and an unparalleled blend of savannah, riverine forest and coastal paradise. From the dramatic landscapes of Samburu to the rolling plains of the Masai Mara, each game drive reveals nature at its most raw and beautiful. Meanwhile, Kenya’s coastline offers coral-fringed beaches, vibrant Swahili culture and warm Indian Ocean waters. This dual-destination model ensures travellers experience both the wild heart and tranquil soul of East Africa.
Discover Thrilling Game Drives in Samburu & Buffalo Springs
Your adventure begins with a fly-in safari from Nairobi to Samburu National Reserve. Touch down on a remote airstrip, then board a shared 4×4 and journey to Surana Buffalo Springs. Here, your luxury tent awaits, complete with a private plunge pool overlooking the Ewaso Ngiro River. Over three nights:
- Early-morning game drives track herds of elephant and giraffe beneath thorn-scrub acacias.
- Afternoon siestas by your tent’s plunge pool offer cooling respite after thrilling wildlife encounters.
- Sunset drives reveal predators on prowl and birdlife returning to riverbanks.
Buffalo Springs Reserve, adjacent to Samburu, offers contrasting views and wildlife species. Over two days, traverse its open plains to spot the Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe and Somali ostrich. Each drive is guided by expert rangers passionate about conservation and storytelling.
Elevate Your Safari in the World-Renowned Masai Mara
On day five, board your scheduled flight to the Masai Mara. At Ashnil Mara Camp, settle into a deluxe tent with sweeping views across the Mara River floodplains. Over two nights:
- Game drives at dawn reveal the Mara’s dramatic predator-prey theatre—lions ambushing their quarry, cheetah sprinting across plains and hyenas scavenging.
- Hot air balloon safari (optional) elevates your experience literally: drift over the savannah at first light, then celebrate your voyage with a champagne bush breakfast in the wild (additional £420 per person).
- Cultural visit to a nearby Maasai village introduces you to ancient traditions, bead-work artistry and local storytelling, adding human connection to your wildlife journey.
Rejuvenate on Chale Island’s Pristine Shores
Following your safari crescendo, transfer to Mombasa for a scenic boat ride to Chale Island—Kenya’s only private-island resort. Over four nights:
- Deluxe beachfront accommodation offers comfort and privacy, with half-board dining featuring fresh seafood and Swahili specialties.
- Water activities include snorkelling over vibrant coral reefs, scuba diving with tropical fish and kayaking in calm lagoons.
- Spa treatments harness indigenous ingredients like African black soap and coconut oil, fostering deep relaxation and wellness.
- Cultural evenings present Taarab music performances and storytelling under starlit skies, blending luxury with local authenticity.
Supporting Conservation & Community
By booking this exclusive escape, you contribute to Kenya’s future. For each passenger, £10 is donated to the Mara Rianda Charitable Trust and £10 to the East Africa Character Development Trust. These organisations fund wildlife research, community education and sustainable development initiatives—ensuring that future generations can enjoy Kenya’s natural wonders.
