Safari Retreat Kenya

About The Retreat

We are so excited to be able to offer you this once-in-a-lifetime adventure, our very first Safari with beach yoga holiday in Kenya. If you are going to experience a safari holiday then Kenya is one of the best countries in Africa to see the Big 5, that is African buffalo, Lion, Leopard, rhino, elephant, as well as Cheetah and many more. Your adventure will start by arriving in Mombasa and then heading to Tsavo Game Park in the southeast corner of Kenya. Tsavo is Kenya’s largest game park and is split into Tsavo East and Tsavo West and the abundance of wildlife is breathtaking as well as the expansiveness of wilderness, it is truly awe-inspiring to witness. You will start by staying at a tented camp in Tsavo East for 2 nights and you will experience a game drive each day, in fact, the arrival day is a game drive in itself to get to the camp because it is within the park itself. This area is flat and arid with lake lands and is well known for its red elephants because the herds bathe in the red mud. It is the oldest game park in Kenya. This camp has a watering hole where animals congregate to drink and bathe, it is an amazing experience to be able to sit and watch this whilst eating lunch or practising yoga. You will then move to Tsavo West to a tented camp and spend 2 nights here enjoying a game drive each day in this expansive land. This area is more mountainous and greener with stunning sunsets and scenery as well as diverse wildlife. At this camp, you will also experience a bush walk with a Masai tribesman and if you want a massage there is a wellness spa. Yoga will be once a day either morning or evening depending on the schedule and it will be an amazing experience to practice yoga in the surroundings of the savannah and plains with animals all around. Breathing in the earth of this sacred land you will feel a true connection with Africa. Next, you will be transported to the beach! Diani beach will be your home for 5 nights, staying in a private beachfront colonial thatched bungalow with a swimming pool and spacious grounds overlooking the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean and white sandy beach. Here you can relax or if you want more adventure there is Shimba Hills to experience another game park or you can try any watersport; kite or windsurfing, SUP, kayaking or diving. One evening will be out at a restaurant in a cave with views of the stars and all other meals are included.
