Overview

Make a quick stopover in Nairobi before your family jets off to the Karisia Hills in Kenya’s eastern Laikipia region. Enjoy wildlife viewing and camel safaris led by expert Samburu guides – an unforgettable family experience. Your next stop is a working cattle ranch in Laikipia’s central highlands, where life moves at a different pace. Your family holiday concludes with a perfect post-safari getaway to Watamu on the palm-fringed Kenyan coast. This tropical retreat offers complete relaxation, but if the ocean beckons, diving and snorkelling in these protected waters provide the ultimate adventure.
