    Nairobi

    Not only is a city stopover a great way to decompress on arrival, but Nairobi’s dynamic diversity makes it a destination in its own right.

    Museums, markets, and buzzing metropolitan vibe add a delightful dose of something different that perfectly complements a Kenya family safari.

    If Kenya is the safari capital, it’s entirely fitting that Nairobi boasts a national park close to the city centre’s skyline. At 5,500ft it can get cool up here, and the city, which began as a colonial railway settlement in the 1890’s, takes its name from ‘enkare nairobi’ — the Maasai term for ‘cold water’.

    Mara North conservancy

    A beautiful private wilderness area in the North West of the Mara, the North Mara Conservancy is an insider’s favourite for a luxury family safari.

    Established in 2009 by over 800 Masai landowners, the Conservancy stretches over 320 km2 and is one of most densely populated wildlife conservancies in the Mara ecosystem.

    Enjoy the feeling of exclusivity and intimacy as visitor numbers to the conservancy are restricted.

    Diani Beach

    There’s no better way to wind down from the wild than sunshine and seaside, and the Kenyan Coast offers an abundance of each. Finish your luxury family safari enjoying the white sands and turquoise waters of Diani beach.

    This is the perfect place to relax and unwind after a safari. For those more active members of the family there are plenty of activities. Enjoy excellent snorkelling, SCUBA diving, deep sea fishing, kite-surfing, traditional dhow cruises, and much more.

    Hemingways Nairobi

    This is without doubt one of our favourite hotels in Kenya – elegant in an understated way, Hemingways Nairobi delivers it all, all of the time.

    Perfect for a night between safaris, or on arrival and departure, it also lends itself to a longer stay if Nairobi is to be explored. From Hemingways Nairobi, guests can easily access Nairobi National Park, as well as the shopping districts of Karen and the David Sheldrick elephant orphanage. The proximity to Nairobi Wilson Airport also makes transfers for domestic flights for safari destinations very convenient.

    The service and food are second to none, meaning a relaxed and enjoyable visit, every time.

    The suites are delightfully comfortable with gloriously spacious bathrooms, and all are named after a notable person in Kenya’s history. The hotel’s grounds are luxuriant, full of birdlife and begging to be explored. A dip in the outdoor pool is also very welcome in the warm Nairobi afternoons.

    Mara Bush Houses

    Exclusive-use private houses are few and far between in the Masai Mara, and these gems are some of the very best.

    The Mara Bush Houses are airy, well-designed and with everything a travelling family on safari could need. Acacia and Mara House are close together, sharing grounds, and a swimming pool. They are to be found in the Mara North conservancy, and can be used on their own, or, together, they are perfect for more than one family travelling together.

    You can look forward to breakfasts in the bush, leisurely dips in the pool after game drives (toddlers will appreciate the little pool just for them!) slow chats around the campfire at night, and also making the most of the large living area in the house, complete with roaring log fire at night, games, and leather-bound reference books.

    Almanara Luxury Villas

    Almanara Luxury Villas is a gorgeous, boutique property owned and managed by the Giovando family. This very special place is less than 5 minute’s drive from the closest airport, meaning you can have your toes in the sand by lunch time, having woken up on safari.

    Almanara’s villas are tucked away in lush tropical gardens, and share a swimming pool – if you can keep you and yours out of the sea that is! Each villa has a private chef so you can all retreat after the day’s activities and spend time together in your bubble.

    The villas are in the grounds of the Almanara hotel which has extra rooms should they be needed. Sails restaurant on the beach serves some of the finest seafood we’ve ever tasted. And word to the wise – the massages here are world-class.

    Beyond wildlife, the Maasai Market beckons with its cultural richness, offering an irresistible shopping experience with unique treasures and gifts.
