Wanyama Safari

[JennisSilly]

I booked this for our honeymoon today! I actually didn't get to "book" it, I got to "request" it (it's booked via the same system that they use for dining reservations). I'm so excited! It includes an hour and a half safari, and then a 4 course meal with wine pairing at Jiko!!

Sigh... that's one meal down, now to figure out the rest!

You will love it! We did this on our honeymoon a few weeks ago and it was so wonderful. It was a highlight of our trip and it was worth every cent. I have photos in my trip report if you are interested!!

Oh thank you!! We really wanted to do the Sunrise Safari, but we're not staying on the Concierge level. I was really excited to find this one had better reviews. I'll be checking out your trip report!!

As responded below, it's $160 per person for conierge level and $210 for other guests. This includes an hour and a half on the safari, and a 4 course meal at jiko, with wine pairing for those 21 and over. They offer it Mon, wed, thurs, fri (but will open Tuesday if there is a high enough demand).

We just did this on my birthday in Oct when we were there...our TA had been able to upgrade us to Concierge for less $, so we decided to go ahead and do it since we might not ever get to stay Concierge level again!

It was so cool!!! And the guides are so informative! I have pics too, but Skylarr's pics are so good, I think you guys get the idea!

Plus, the meal in Jiko of course! You will have a great time!!!

What kind of food is included in the meal at Jiko? I'm a picky eater (but willing to try new things).

 

[Lorelei528]

They actually give you a sampling of the most popular items on their menu (including appetizer, entree and dessert!).
It's kind of like a small plates idea, so everyone shares when they bring it out and gets to try everything or just what they would like to.

So, if you take a look at their regular menu, figure they offer approx. 3-4 menu items from each course...

It's DELICIOUS!!!!!

mmmmmmmm.......................

Thanks! Robert thought I was nuts buying a shirt just for that but I thought it was cute!

For the main course they served us fish, steak, and chicken. I am not an adventurous eater either but I tried everything and it was very good and a good chance to try things one wouldn't normally order.

Yes you do!

Skylar- thank you for the pictures, I'm so excited!!!!

You're welcome.
