African Wildlife Adventure & Yoga Retreat

Arrive in Nairobi in the evening and transfer to the beautiful Argyle Hotel. Rest and settle in as you prepare for the adventure ahead. This is your time to shake off the journey and begin to ground yourself in African soil.

Begin your safari experience right in the capital with game drives through Nairobi National Park, where giraffes roam against a backdrop of city skyline. Visit the heartwarming Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage to meet baby elephants, then feed endangered Rothschild giraffes at the Giraffe Centre. Enjoy lunch at the historic Karen Blixen Coffee Garden before an evening yoga session at the serene Hermosa Gardens.

Travel southwest to the legendary Maasai Mara, one of Africa’s most celebrated wildlife reserves. Arrive at the Africa Retreat Center Mara Engai Lodge for lunch, then head out for your first afternoon game drive in this extraordinary landscape where the Great Migration unfolds.

Immerse yourself in the rhythms of the wild with morning and afternoon game drives through the Maasai Mara, home to the Big Five and the dramatic river crossings of the migration. Between drives, practice yoga and meditation, integrating the power and presence of the natural world into your body and breath.

Journey across the border into Tanzania, changing vehicles at Isebania before continuing to the remote North Serengeti. Arrive at Enkutoto Migration Camp, perfectly positioned in the path of the herds. This is wild Africa at its most pristine and awe-inspiring.

Spend a full day exploring the northern reaches of the Serengeti, following the migration and witnessing predator-prey dynamics in real time. The endless golden plains and dramatic skies create a backdrop unlike anywhere else on earth. Return to Enkutoto Migration Camp for the evening.

Travel south to the heart of the Serengeti, stopping for game drives along the way. The Central Serengeti is known for year-round wildlife concentrations and big cat sightings. Arrive at Enkirari Wilderness Camp, nestled in the wilderness and offering an intimate connection to the landscape.

Depart with a packed lunch for one of the most spectacular wildlife experiences on the planet: a descent into the Ngorongoro Crater. This ancient volcanic caldera is home to an incredible density of wildlife, including black rhino, lion, elephant, and flamingo-filled lakes. Ascend in the afternoon and transfer to Country Lodge in Karatu.

Leave the wildlife behind and journey to Africa Amini Maasai Lodge, a community-centered retreat dedicated to supporting local Maasai families. Arrive for lunch and spend the afternoon engaging in cultural activities—learning traditional beadwork, visiting local homes, and connecting with the Maasai way of life.

Enjoy a full leisure day at Africa Amini Lodge. Practice yoga, participate in cultural exchanges, explore the surrounding village, or simply rest and integrate all you’ve experienced. This is a day to slow down, reflect, and honor the journey you’ve been on—both inner and outer.
