This itinerary offers the ultimate bush-and-beach break! It begins with some safari time in the wildlife-rich Mara North Conservancy and ends on the beautiful beach of Diani. Both properties you’ll visit have special offers for honeymooners.

The adventure starts at Offbeat Mara. This is an authentic camp positioned close to the Olare Orok river, within the Mara North Conservancy. And the beach part of your vacation will be spent at Almanara Boutique Hotel, a lavish property on Diani Beach, with a beautiful backdrop of lush forest. Both properties offer 50 per cent off accommodation rates for the bride! Almanara provides a lot of enticing little extras too (see board basis and activities below).

While you’re at Offbeat Mara, you’ll enjoy day and evening game drives, walking safaris, cultural visits, hot air balloon safaris (at additional cost), and even morning or afternoon horse riding excursions (also at additional cost). Wildlife viewing in this area is excellent all year round, but if you visit during the period from July to October you could look out for the huge herds of the Great Migration! Once at Diani, you’ll find plenty of activities available from Almanara’s own watersports centre. There’s also deep sea fishing, a range of dhow trips, land sports such as golf, and of course the option to relax on the beach throughout your stay.

You’ll stay in one of the honeymoon tents, which is spacious and provides plenty of privacy for you. It features an immaculate handmade cedar bed and well-appointed en-suite facilities including hot safari shower. From this very pleasant base, you can enjoy classic safari activities such as vehicle and walking safaris, as well as trips to the local market and a thrilling hot air balloon ride (the latter at additional cost). This area of Kenya is home to an astonishing assortment of mammals, and the famous Great Migration pushes up into the Mara region from July to October. Birding is brilliant too!
