Somak Special Offers
This 12-night journey is thoughtfully crafted for two, a luxury escape that begins in the cool Aberdares, moves through the desert-river landscapes of Buffalo Springs, sweeps across the Masai Mara and finally unwinds on the turquoise shores of Zanzibar. The Cheetah Safari Premium blends the excitement of Kenya’s wilderness with the gentle calm of island life, taking you across rolling hills, mountains, arid deserts and open savannah in the company of a Somak expert driver-guide who makes wildlife come alive, from lions and elephants to birds, reptiles and insects.
Hand-picked lodges and camps put you close to nature even beyond the game drives, turning elephants, lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras and countless birds into part of the daily rhythm rather than one-off sightings. After more than a dozen days discovering the heart of Kenya, the pace softens as you surrender to five nights of all-inclusive luxury at Diamonds Bijoux in Zanzibar, where white sands, balcony-front rooms and sun-soaked ease bring the whole journey to a relaxed, indulgent close.
