Start married life with a trip filled with adventures across exotic lands, exploring diverse ecosystems, and getting acquainted with some of the most stunning animals to have ever walked the planet. Taking a safari in Kenya for your honeymoon offers you something different from the standard beach trip so many take, and gives you a chance to build memories that will last a lifetime.

We will take you across a range of landscapes as you traverse the country of Kenya on safari. The grasslands of Amboseli, with Kilimanjaro acting as your tantalizing photographic backdrop, will be your introduction to safari, after which you will stop at Ol Pejeta Conservancy to meet the only chimpanzees in Kenya and some of the most endangered animals on Earth.

Continuing your adventure, you’ll go to the river park of Samburu, the setting for the world-famous Born Free documentary. Next, possibly the most evocative of parks in the whole of Africa, the Masai Mara. The concentration of animals in this park can boggle the mind, and you’ll be almost certain to find the animals you’re searching for, with more than a hint of romance to add that special touch to your first endeavor of your marriage

Day 1 Nairobi -Amboseli National Park

The day starts early on safari, and we will make an early pick-up from your hotel, residence, or from the international airport, and take you to Wilson Airport for your domestic flight to Amboseli National Park. Your flight will afford you a first look at the landscape of Kenya from the air, before you get on the ground and start discovering things from a terrestrial perspective.

Once landed in the park, your guide will collect you from the airstrip and you will pass through Amboseli and past the creatures that live here as you make your way to your selected accommodation. Once you get to your camp or lodge, you will be served a hearty lunch and given time to settle into your surroundings.

  • Elephants
  • Leopards

Lunch is served back at your camp or lodge, before setting out once more into the park to look for, spot, identify, and photograph the mammals and birds that make this special place their home.
