Mara on Horseback

Day 1:

Hemingways Nairobi This boutique hotel elevates the standard of luxury for travellers in the region. Beautiful in its symmetry and flooded with natural light, this plantation-style property is airy and spacious.

Day 2: Maasai Mara Conservancies Safari on horseback is a unique experience, well-trained horses make you feel secure and connected to the landscape. Each day, you encounter a variety of wildlife: impala trotting alongside your horse, wildebeest running away, giraffe moving in any direction, and zebra calmly cantering into the distance. The vistas are vast, the African sky is incredibly huge, and the horizon is distant and shimmering in the midday heat. It's a sense of complete freedom and a return to living in harmony with the environment.

Day 8: Depart
