Mara Honeymoon — A private-conservancy honeymoon — your own tented suite with a plunge pool, candlelit bush dinners, a dawn balloon over the plains, and not another vehicle in sight
4 days · 3 nights · Good year-round
About this experience
For the trip that has to be perfect. We base you in a private conservancy bordering the Maasai Mara, where vehicle numbers are capped and off-road driving and night drives are allowed — so your sightings are intimate and uncrowded. The suite is all yours: private deck, plunge pool, outdoor shower under the stars. Expect a champagne balloon breakfast, a surprise bush dinner, and a guide who quietly makes everything seamless.

Signature experiences
Optional add-ons our specialists can build into this trip. Prices are per person, confirmed on request.
Lift off at dawn over the plains, drift silently above the herds, and land to a champagne bush breakfast. The definitive Mara morning.
Spend an hour in a working manyatta — the jumping dance, fire-making, and a look at daily Maasai life, hosted by the community itself.
A lantern-lit table set out under the stars, your own chef and a crackling fire — the safari dinner people remember for years.
After dark on a private conservancy, a spotlight picks out leopard, aardvark, bushbaby and the animals you never see by day.

Price breakdown
The plan, day by day
From pickup to drop-off — exactly what your trip looks like.
Light-aircraft flight from Nairobi, met with a cold towel and champagne. Settle into your suite, then a private sundowner drive ending at a fire-lit spot on the plains — just the two of you and your guide.
Float over the Mara at sunrise, landing to a full champagne breakfast in the bush. Back to the suite for the plunge pool and a spa treatment. Optional late-afternoon drive.
Off-road in the conservancy for unhurried, exclusive big-cat sightings. After dark, a night drive for the rarely-seen nocturnal animals. Dinner is set up privately under the stars — lanterns, a Maasai choir, the works.
A last slow morning drive (or a lie-in — your call), brunch, then the flight back to Nairobi.

Common questions
Why a private conservancy instead of the main reserve?+
Conservancies bordering the Mara cap vehicle numbers and permit off-road and night driving, which the national reserve does not. The result is intimate, uncrowded sightings — you'll often have a leopard entirely to yourselves. Perfect for a honeymoon.
Is the balloon safari really included?+
Yes — a sunrise hot-air balloon flight with a champagne bush breakfast on landing is built into this package. It's the honeymoon photograph everyone wants.
Can you arrange a special surprise?+
Absolutely. Private dinners, rose-petal turndowns, a vow renewal with a Maasai blessing, a photographer for a morning — tell us the moment you want and we'll make it happen discreetly.
