On arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, you will be met and transferred to Four Points by Sheraton Hotel. In the heart of Nairobi, the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel is the perfect gateway to an unforgettable African adventure.
As you prepare to embark on your thrilling safari, this elegant oasis offers you a tranquil haven for your first night in Kenya.

From the plush, well-appointed rooms to the tantalizing cuisine at their on-site restaurant, you’ll find yourself immersed in the flavors and culture of this vibrant city. As the sun sets over Nairobi, you’ll savor the anticipation of the wild landscapes that await you.
It’s time to head to the famed Masai Mara. After a delicious breakfast, you will be transferred to Wilson Airport and board your light aircraft charter flight to the Mara. On arrival you will be met and taken to Losokwan Camp for the next three nights.
Losokwan Camp is a true African gem that promises an authentic safari experience like no other. With a three-night stay at this enchanting camp, you’ll find yourself immersed in the heart of Kenya’s untamed beauty. The luxury tents, blending seamlessly with the natural surroundings, offer you a comfortable and intimate retreat. Wake up to the symphony of birdsong, and as you step outside, the sprawling savannah unfolds before you, punctuated by acacia trees and teeming with wildlife.
During your stay at Losokwan Camp, each day presents a new adventure. Rise with the sun for early morning game drives, where you’ll witness the Mara’s famous Big Five in their natural habitat. Expert guides will lead you through the wilderness, sharing their knowledge of the fauna and flora that call this region home.
As the days unfold, indulge in a leisurely bush picnic, savoring delectable cuisine while surrounded by the African wilderness. In the afternoon, set out on another game drive or opt for a guided nature walk to uncover the Mara’s hidden secrets. In the evenings, gather around the campfire, exchanging stories of the day’s sightings with fellow travelers beneath a star-studded African sky.
A scheduled flight whisks you from Losokwan Camp to Ukunda Airport, south of Mombasa on the Indian Ocean coast. Here you are met and transferred to Waterlovers Beach Retreat where you can kick back after the drama and early morning starts of your Masai Mara safari. This family-owned and -run resort has everything you need for complete relaxation: it sits on the dazzling white sands of world-famous Diani Beach and its rooms are air conditioned and come with complimentary Wi-Fi. There is an in-house spa offering massages, beauty and wellness treatments and reflexology. Enjoy little touches such as seats shaped like whale tails and relaxed atmosphere that is very child friendly.
You also have the chance to be as active as you like: there is a popular beginner’s coral reef nearby, an 18-hole golf course and bikes to rent. Imaginative meals are enjoyed with sand between your toes and the menu changes daily: dishes include roasted pumpkin ravioli in crab and fish ragout, and passion fruit mousse with white chocolate flakes.
After breakfast at you will take a light charter aircraft back to Wilson Airport in Nairobi. You will then be transferred to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your onward travel arrangements, and the end of this tour.
