Restorative Kenya

Day 1 – Arrival & Into the Wild Touch down in Nairobi where our Safari Concierge team ensures a seamless start to your adventure. After a smooth transfer to Wilson Airport, board your flight to the Mara North Conservancy. Arriving at Kicheche Mara, you’re greeted by sweeping savannah views and the hum of wildlife. Spend the afternoon exploring with your private guide, spotting elephants and big cats before sundowners by the fire. It’s the perfect, relaxed introduction to the magic of Kenya.

Day 2 – Exploring the Mara North Conservancy Your first full day in the bush begins with coffee brought to your tent before dawn. Head out for a private game drive in the golden morning light, when the plains are alive with movement. Back at camp, enjoy a leisurely breakfast and time to relax. The afternoon brings more adventure – perhaps tracking lions or visiting a nearby conservation project. Return to camp for a family dinner under the stars, sharing stories of the day’s sightings.

Day 3 – Masai Mara Reserve Today, venture deeper into the Masai Mara Reserve – home to some of Africa’s most iconic wildlife. Your guide tailors the day around your interests, whether it’s watching a cheetah on the hunt or marveling at herds of wildebeest grazing on the plains. Enjoy a picnic lunch beneath an acacia tree before heading back to camp. In the evening, unwind as the sounds of the Mara fade into the night, a reminder of nature’s quiet rhythm.

Day 4 – A Day of Connection & Conservation Spend your day at a gentler pace, perhaps joining a guided bush walk to learn the secrets of animal tracking or meeting Maasai rangers to hear their stories of protecting the land. Younger travelers can try their hand at traditional beadwork or archery, while parents enjoy a tranquil moment on the veranda. As dusk settles, gather for a lantern-lit dinner — a fitting close to your final evening in the Mara.

Day 5 – From Savannah to the Coast After breakfast, fly from the Mara to Ukunda, where palm trees replace acacias and the air grows warm with sea breeze. A short drive brings you to Kinondo Kwetu, your elegant beach retreat. The pace slows instantly — white sands, turquoise waters, and a sense of calm. Spend the afternoon unwinding by the pool or exploring the coastline. The shift from safari to sea feels effortless, offering both contrast and continuity.

Day 6 – Ocean Adventures & Island Calm Wake to the sound of waves and the scent of frangipani. Today is yours to explore as you wish — perhaps a family dhow excursion, snorkeling over coral reefs, or horse riding along the beach. Back at Kinondo Kwetu, children can try sailing or tennis while parents indulge in a spa treatment. Evenings are for togetherness: barefoot dinners by the ocean, laughter over shared memories, and a lingering sense of peace.

Day 7 – Culture & Connection Venture beyond the beach to meet the local community, visiting a nearby village or market for an authentic glimpse into coastal life. Back at Kinondo Kwetu, take part in a yoga session or simply relax with a book beneath the palms. The day unfolds at your family’s own rhythm — adventure, rest, or reflection — ending with another sunset that seems made just for you.

Day 8 – Rest & Renewal Your final full day at Kinondo Kwetu invites unhurried enjoyment. Perhaps a morning paddleboard or quiet walk along the shore, followed by a long, lazy lunch under the trees. The staff know you by name now, ensuring every detail feels effortless. As evening falls, gather for a private beach dinner — the perfect close to a journey that’s been as rejuvenating as it has been inspiring.

Day 9 – Departure via Nairobi After breakfast, fly back to Nairobi. A private vehicle and driver are at your disposal for the afternoon, ideal for a visit to the Talisman restaurant — one of the city’s favorites — before your evening flight. With VIP airport assistance, your departure is smooth and unhurried. You leave Kenya with full hearts and unforgettable memories — a journey beautifully balanced between wild adventure and quiet luxury.
