Family Safari

This ‘Tailormade for family’ adventure delivers the safari experience of a lifetime. Flying between destinations removes the challenge of long and dusty drives with children. There is so much to see and do for each member, from swimming in the pool, riding on horses, learning how to make fire for the children to fine dining and massages for the adults.

This adventure starts in Nairobi with a special overnight at the elegant Giraffe Manor. Home to the Rothschild’s giraffes, the manor offers a unique yet wild experience like no other. The giraffes wander the grounds often poking their heads through the window to see what is for breakfast. Although the giraffes are gentle, they are wild therefore interaction with them at any given time is not guaranteed.

Then you fly to the Maasai Mara and for the next five nights, you will stay at Mara Bush Houses. The private houses are in the very best locations of the Maasai Mara Eco system and benefit from three generations of safari experience in this area. This ensures that guests experience some of the richest game viewing and genuine cultural insights in Africa.

The exclusivity of the bush houses enables guests to enjoy the seclusion of their own lodgings and have the flexibility and freedom to personally design their safari itineraries in the Masai Mara. With a specially designed vehicle and a guide’s lifetime of knowledge at hand, the plains, rivers, and hills of the Masai Mara are there to be explored.
