Borana Lodge is a unique place from which to watch Kenya’s wildlife – especially if you want to capture the sight of elephants swimming in a dam, walking distance from your cottage. A private helicopter flight over the particularly game-rich Samangua Valley may well be one of the most unforgettable highlights of your entire luxury, tailor-made holiday to Kenya. But there are many more to follow.

Borana Lodge is set in a private conservancy, so you have better access to the wildlife, and a complete absence of other visitors cluttering your view. You will encounter wild African elephants. You will be able to take close up shots of prides of lions basking in the shade of thorn trees. You can embark on night drives to see the nocturnal activities of a whole range of animals. Or you can relax at the lodge and watch wildlife wandering past your cottage – including elephants going for a swim in the nearby dam.
