Kenya Royal Safari

7 night escorted safari from £1995 including all flights, most meals and all transfers

A safari fit for royalty, following a classic route through some of Kenya's finest game reserves. Flights to and from the Masai Mara make short work of the long distances, whilst accommodation is in exclusive lodges in outstanding locations.

One night is spent at the uniquely-shaped tree lodge, The Ark, designed with decks from which balconies provide superb vantage points for viewing the animals visiting the salt lick and waterhole.

In Samburu, accommodation is in the Ashnil Samburu Camp. In a perfect position on the river bank this is a wonderful choice for a stay in Kenya. The camp is home to just 24 luxury tents, all circular, and carefully spread throughout the lush grounds.

Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club offers 120 rooms and suites, and provides a wonderful base for a short stay with activities including swimming, walking and horse riding. The restaurant here offers an excellent variety of cuisine.

Fairmont Mara Safari Club sits on an ox-bow bend of the River Mara. All 51 en suite tents have views of the hippo and crocodile filled river.
