Our meticulously crafted Essence of a Continent is a grand introduction to
Africa’s golden joys, taking us off the too-trod
path to some of the country’s finest
and vastest wildlife reserves. We begin in
the south, flying from Nairobi to Hemingway’s
Green Hills of Africa, the Chyulu, for
three nights at the incomparable Campi ya
Kanzi, gazing out at nearby Kilimanjaro as
we game view and hike in the hills’ cloud
forest. (Your writer, like most who have
experienced it, ranks ya Kanzi at the very
top of his list of African treasures.)
We fly to the exclusive Sirikoi near the slopes of Mt. Kenya. We fly northeast to Loisaba, the Samburu homeland and Loisaba Lodge, a 61,000-acre private wilderness rich with wildlife. We round out our circuit at the famed Masai Mara. Our Leleshwa Tented Camp is another experience of the country’s essence; we’ll peacefully track game with our Maasai guides (getting to know these amazing folk) and enjoy sundowners in camp, listening for the roar of lions in the bush. Each of our Essence of a Continent lodges and camps hosts no more than 18 guests, giving us a high level of personal attention, professional leadership, fine cuisine, and a rare, uncrowded safari experience.
