A Detailed 14-Day Tanzania And Kenya Safari | Big 5 & Great Migration

Day 1: Kenya Welcomes You! | 1 Nights

A transfer will be arranged to take you to the Crowne Plaza Nairobi Airport from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi upon your arrival. Have a good night’s sleep before setting off on your safari excursion.

Day 2: Breakfast with Giraffes | 1 Nights

Giraffe Manor is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that offers a glimpse into the tranquil suburbs of Nairobi and an encounter with some of the most famous animals in Africa. You will be transferred there today. The ivy-clad walls, calm grounds, and classic interiors of the exquisite 1930s mansion radiate old-world grandeur and mesmerise from the moment you enter. The resident Rothschild giraffes are the real show-stoppers, though; they make their presence known in the most wonderful way possible, peeking through the windows as you have breakfast to join in on the fun and games.

Giraffe Manor is a peaceful haven that goes beyond just the fascinating giraffe experiences. Relax in one of the tastefully decorated rooms, each with its own unique history and character, while taking in the verdant surroundings and sipping a freshly brewed Kenyan coffee on the patio basking in the sun. Everything about this place is out of this world, from the giraffes you feed them with your bare hands to the conservation initiatives you hear about to the kind hospitality you receive from the manor’s helpful personnel.

For the following two days, the focus will be on Loisaba’s enchantment. Elephants, big cats, and the rare reticulated giraffe can all be seen on professionally led game drives.

Savour exquisite dinners made with fresh, local ingredients while gazing at the stars as the sun goes down.
