Day 1: VIP Arrival & Astral Induction
Arrive at Nairobi's Wilson Airport and meet your pilot and guide. Embark on a spectacular aerial safari north to Samburu. Land directly at your exclusive luxury camp, where a personal butler greets you with chilled towels and a signature drink.
Settle into your lavish tented suite. Your private astronomer joins you for a welcome briefing over high tea, outlining the celestial events you will witness. Enjoy your first fine-dining experience under the stars, with your astronomer pointing out the Southern Cross and other constellations. A thermal imaging scope is provided for your first glimpse of nocturnal wildlife from the camp's deck.
Day 2: Desert Moonrise Majesty
Begin the day with a private drive through Samburu, seeking its unique “Special Five” wildlife. Next, take a thrilling flight east, over dramatic semi-arid landscapes, landing at a pre-prepared, ultra-luxury fly-camp in the heart of the Chalbi Desert.
Enjoy a gourmet lunch set amidst the stunning isolation of the desert. Then, take a guided walk to learn about the unique ecosystem, or simply relax at the camp's “oasis” pool. In the evening, enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime experience: a multi-course gourmet meal served at a single table under the vast, rising full moon, accompanied by traditional Daasanach storytellers and musicians.
Day 3: Cultural Exchange & Thermal Tracking
Enjoy a leisurely morning with a late breakfast after the evening's festivities. Then, take a respectful and private visit to a local Daasanach community, arranged exclusively for you, focusing on authentic interaction rather than tourism.
Ascend a secluded dune for panoramic sunset views with premium champagne. Then, embark on a private 4x4 drive using advanced thermal imaging to track and observe the desert's elusive nocturnal creatures—from caracals to hyenas—in complete comfort and safety.
Day 4: Skybeds & Lunar Wellness
Take a scenic flight south to the world-renowned Lewa Conservancy. Check into your iconic open-air Skybed suite, perched on a platform overlooking a busy waterhole.
Take an escorted walk on the conservancy plains with an expert guide and an armed ranger, feeling the earth underfoot. Then, enjoy a private massage and sound bath session as the sun sets and the moon rises, transforming your suite into an open-air spa. Dine in the absolute privacy of your Skybed, with a dedicated waiter serving your meal course-by-course as you watch wildlife below and the cosmos above.
Day 5: Farewell Under the African Sky
Take one last spectacular morning drive with a bush breakfast. Then, enjoy a final aerial tour, flying over the foothills of Mount Kenya back to Wilson Airport.
Conclude your journey with a gourmet lunch at a top Nairobi restaurant (e.g., Talisman) with your guide to recap your journey and present you with a custom-made starmap of your safari night sky.
