NABOISHO CONCESSION / MASAI MARA
After a first night in Nairobi and a light aircraft flight to the Masai Mara, your journey begins with 4 nights at an exceptional lodge in the private Naboisho concession: Mara Nyika Camp, by Great Plains Conservation.
Wooden walkways wind through the canopy to the four tents, generous both in size and in the distance separating them.
Built from canvas with the luxury and lightness of a mobile camp, the tents offer an extreme, surprising and thoroughly welcome level of comfort.
The effect is distinctly enchanting.
Softly lit at night, the atmosphere shifts with the mood.
The canvas-covered lounge and dining area are dressed simply but elegantly in natural wood tones, enhanced by local textiles and decor.
Explore the reserve on morning and afternoon safaris, tracking both the emblematic species and the lesser-known ones. Mara Nyika’s location within the Naboisho reserve keeps you away from the crowds while staying close to the action.
This is the advantage of the Masai Mara’s private concessions: more exclusive, while also being more respectful of the environment, the wildlife and the Maasai population, who benefit directly from tourism on their land.

Being part of the Great Plains Conservation association carries responsibilities: safeguarding one of Africa’s last pockets of wilderness, protecting big cats and other savannah wildlife, supporting local communities…
The preservation of endangered species is a priority.
A genuine approach to responsible ecotourism, in which neighbouring Maasai families are directly involved.

INDIAN OCEAN BEACH – SOUTH MOMBASA
“Swahili Chic” style for the final stretch of your trip on the Indian Ocean beaches, reached by light aircraft.
Between swaying palm trees and immaculate white walls, Msambweni Beach House exudes luxury and relaxed style beneath its traditional thatched roof.
Perched on a cliff overlooking a spectacular ocean landscape, with lush planted grounds and an almost-private beach, it’s easy to forget how close you are to one of Kenya’s most popular getaways.
Perfectly maintained gardens separate the main house and its 3 suites from the 3 private villas, tucked along paths that wind through the property down to the beach.
Fitted with Swahili-style four-poster beds, private infinity pools and beautifully carved wooden details, the villas offer genuine privacy facing the ocean.
For those wanting more activity, a range of water sports is available nearby.
