Take a day trip from Loldia House in the Great Rift Valley, out to picturesque Lake Nakuru National Park: where millions of colourful flamingoes perch in the waters, as rhinos graze among the trees. Best enjoyed from a shady spot, with a sumptuous picnic lunch.
The adventure begins just before dawn in Kenya’s Masai Mara, and what follows is quite literally one of the most uplifting experiences imaginable. Without the limitations of roads or the disruptive noise of cars, float above some of nature’s most beautiful landscapes and watch as the Big Five come out to play.
Although Kenya has gained a reputation for being a busy safari destination, there are many beautiful lodges in secluded areas away from high volume tourism. Among Kenya’s lesser known gems are the remote Laikipia Plateau, the isolated Chyulu Hills, the expansive scenery of the Shompole Private Conservancy and the serenity of Meru National Park.
Kenya’s 490km Indian Ocean coastline is one of the country’s key attractions. Running from Lamu in the north to Mombasa in the south, this area offers a striking combination of Swahili culture, beautiful palm-lined beaches and good coral reefs. Use the opportunity to take a traditional dhow sail-boat cruise.
Between July and October, millions of wildebeest gather in the Masai Mara. Staying in one of the Governors’ Camp properties puts you – safely – right in the heart of the action, close to the unforgettable sights and sounds.
