The locations of Kenya's safari lodges offer both privacy and stunning settings. High up on remote hills, surrounded by woods, one knows one will not be disturbed. But the fact of being on the side of a hill affords breathtaking views of the savannah below. The guest houses themselves are beautifully decorated, incorporating a mix of modern and traditional African style and provide all the necessities you will need. There are also plenty of little luxuries such as sumptuous four poster beds, open fires and delightful, private outdoor baths where you can enjoy a soak in the moonlight. Each house has its own butler, a nanny, a valet, an international chef and a Maasai guide, all of whom will take care of your every need from your meals and drinks to childcare and guided tours and day trips.
A local Maasai guide will be on hand to drive you out on a private safari whenever you want. The conservancies, where the safari lodges in Kenya are based, are home to a wide variety of flora and fauna, some of which are endangered species. If you are lucky you may well catch sight of spotted hyena, African wild dogs, kudu and perhaps even leopards. An absolutely incredible experience and some really superb photo opportunities.
If you don't fancy the truck, then you can experience the African savannah from the back of a camel, horse or quad bike. You are free to set your own pace. Here you will experience the most picturesque expanse of ever changing terrain from lush, rolling green hills and valleys rich in abundant vegetation to vast woods and forests, peppered with fig and olive trees, offering cooling shade from the searing sun.
The safari lodges in Kenya also provide some fabulous facilities including spas, where you can enjoy wonderful luxury treatments with the use of organic and aromatherapy products, luxury swimming pools and libraries where you can browse through some great books or sit and chat to other guests staying in the safari lodges in Kenya.
For those who prefer to take in the wonders of Africa from a place of comfort, there are viewing decks with GPS telescopes. The decks are also a rather pleasant place to sit and enjoy the majesty of a sunset across the plains of Africa.
The safari lodges in Kenya also offer a variety of recreational activities for those who prefer their holidays to be a bit more white knuckle. There's rafting, kayaking, rock climbing, fishing, kayaking and even jogging - but jogging in one Hell of a surrounding. Another really rewarding way to spend some of your time whilst vacationing in one of the gorgeous safari lodges in Kenya is to join in with some of the community and conservation projects.
You can get to know all about the traditional Maasai way of life and how they overcome the challenges of living in such a remote region. You can also learn some fantastic Maasai skills and crafts such as how to find and use medicinal herbs, house building, weapon making and traditional beadwork. Whilst spending time with these amazing tribes people you will also notice how they have cleverly combined both their traditional way of life with 21st century technology, utilizing the technology to help them maintain their heritage. Spending a vacation in one of the safari lodges in Kenya will be an experience never to be forgotten and a valuable insight into the contrasting lifestyles of the Maasai people.
