Detailed itinerary;
DAY 01: NAIROBI
Upon arrival in the Kenyan capital, you’ll be met by our representative and after a short briefing, transferred to the Fairmont Norfolk Hotel, where most—if not all—of those potentates and royals stayed, dined, and chummed around before setting out on safari.
Overnight at Fairmont The Norfolk Hotel.
DAY 02: NAIROBI
After breakfast tour the famous Dapne Sheldrick’s Elephant ophanage then over to the Giraffe Centre for some interspecies camaraderie, and visit the former home of Karen Blixen, author—writing as Isak Dinesen— of Out of Africa, one of the most evocative books ever written about any earthly place.
Later driven back to your hotel.
Overnight at Fairmont the Norfolk Hotel
DAY 3 & 4: AMBOSELI NATIONAL PARK
After breakfast at your hotel, you will be picked up and transferred to Wilson Airport for your flight to Amboseli National park.
You will fly south this morning over the Athi Plains to the natural wonderland of Amboseli National Park. Mount Kilimanjaro, the still-glaciated monarch of Africa, presides over Amboseli, thrusting three miles above the park’s grasslands.
Tortilis Camp is our base for game drives in this almost incomparably rich animal kingdom. Our spacious, luxuriously furnished, thatch-covered tents nestle under the huge and reposeful Tortilis acacia trees from which the camp takes its name.
All meals, gamedrives and overnight at Tortilis Camp
DAY 05 & 06: SAMBURU NATIONAL RESERVE
Your Larsen’s Camp experience begins the moment you land at the Samburu Airstrip, climb into the awaiting landcruiser and your driver will chauffer you directly to Larsen’s. Leaving the hot, dry Samburu Game reserve behind, Larsen’s will welcome you into a cool, green oasis with a freshly-squeezed glass of mango juice and a personal greeting from your Larsen’s host.
As a small luxury Hotels property, Larsen’s camp is a premier member of a collection of world class hotels and resorts. The prestigious association ensures you the ultimate experience of the highest quality. It is an experience that you can be proud of – Larsen’s Camp is part of the caring luxury initiative for responsible environmental, economic and social practices.
