The Perfect Kenyan Safari Honeymoon

DAY 1 A Safari Adventure in Laikipia

After a good night's sleep, your driver will arrive at the hotel to chauffeur you to Wilson Domestic Airport, where you'll board the 40-minute flight to Nanyuki. You'll be met at the landing strip by your lodge guide and driven through the savannah to your new safari home on what is essentially your first game drive.

Your home for the next few nights is a luxurious eco-award-winning tented camp, set in Ol Pejeta Conservancy. Tucked away at the foot of Mount Kenya, this exclusive and intimate lodge only has six tents, making it a fantastic choice for newlyweds looking to get away from it all after the madness of wedmin.

The Conservancy is home to Kenya's largest population of black rhinos, as well as vast numbers of elephants, cheetahs, lions and leopards, so you're in the right place to catch a first glimpse (or more, hopefully) of some of Africa's most famous four-legged inhabitants. Even better, when it comes to ground-breaking conservation initiatives, as well as pioneering support for the local communities, the Laikipia region leads the way.

Spend the rest of the day settling in, before watching some of the local wildlife gather at the watering hole, all from the comfort of your own private veranda, and cradling a sundowner. The perfect start to your honeymoon.

DAY 2 Onwards to the Masai Mara

This morning it's time to say goodbye to Laikipia as you continue your honeymoon in the iconic Masai Mara. You might just be able to squeeze in one final game drive, before your driver whisks you back to the airstrip for your domestic flight to Mara North Private Conservancy. Your camp guide will be waiting for you when you land, to drive you to the camp. Tucked away in a picture-perfect valley, this classic tented camp is a little piece of heaven and a dream base for your Masai Mara safari.

There's a relaxed and friendly vibe and nothing is too much trouble for the attentive staff. It really is a special place.

Freshen up and settle into your chic canvas tent before toasting married life (again) with a crisp glass of wine on your private deck. Each of the eight luxurious tents in the camp overlook the Olare Orok stream, a prime spot for catching a glimpse of the neighbouring wildlife and resident hippo.
