An endless horizon of Savannah punctured by acacia trees, the outline of a grass-camouflaged lion only visible through squinted eyes, the vibrating call of a Nightjar bird under the stars. These can only mean one thing – a Kenyan safari. But this one is far more than just jeep rides through the plains.
SkySafari’s sole purpose is to elevate the humble safari beyond brilliant and into the realms of magical and downright unforgettable. Combining some of Kenya’s most luxurious camps, lodges and hotels with flying between each location in absolute comfort and style aboard their intimate, executive jet. Touch down in Nairobi before venturing to visit the elephants of Amboseli National Park with the snow-capped Kilimanjaro as a backdrop. Then, fly to Loisaba Conservancy with its cutting-edge conservation for a glimpse into the lives of the anti-poaching team; before coming to rest in game-viewing-capital Masai Mara.
Itinerary highlights:
Begin your trip at the boutique Hemingways with a one night stay at this retreat from Nairobi’s clamour. Here, enjoy a dedicated butler service, spa treatments and spectacular views away from the hustle and bustle of the city. (HB)
Hemingways NairobiA short flight later sees Amboseli National Park come into view with Elewana Tortilis Camp being where you’ll call home for the next two nights. Straddling the border of Kenya and Tanzania, the park is famous for its high population of elephants and its staggering views of the snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro. Expect dawn game drives and wild bush walks led by experienced resident guides, followed by sundowners accompanied by traditional Italian cuisine based on original family recipes. (FI)
Elewana Tortilis CampA morning game drive bids farewell to Amboseli before the flight to Loisaba Conservancy in Laikipia. Loisaba comes out top when it comes to its attitude towards conservation and a visit to the headquarters to meet the anti-poaching team is encouraged. Game viewing also takes an unusual turn here in the form of horseback bush treks, canyon rafting, mountain biking and sunset camel rides. With Loisaba Tented Camp and its Elewana Starbeds being the place to rest your head under the night sky. (FI)
Elewana Loisaba Tented CampNext on the agenda is the gloriously biodiverse Maasai Mara, classified as one of the Seven Wonders of the World and renowned for its spectacle of a wildebeest migration. After a game drive en-route to the airstrip, the 1920s-style camp – Elewana Sand River – makes for a stylish base to explore. From an insight into life within a Maasai village to sundowners in the heart of the bush. (FI)
