Giraffe Manor, the Maasai Mara & Mountain Gorillas
Start off your classic Kenyan safari at the iconic Giraffe Manor. This stately Nairobi boutique hotel is elegant and charming, but what makes it unique is the resident herd of Rothschild’s giraffes who may well poke their long necks into the windows while you dine in the hope of a treat. Then it’s time for enthralling Big Five game-viewing in the Masai Mara. As well as the seasonal migration of millions of wildebeest, zebra and antelope – followed by opportunistic Big Cats – the savannah plains throng with all manner of wildlife, making this a classic safari experience. Round off this ultimate African safari with gorilla trekking in the wildly beautiful Bwindi Inpenetrable Forest – a profoundly moving encounter that is sure to change the way you view the world.
