When in the Serengeti, the Singita Grumeti Reserve is THE place to be—a perfect escape from the crowds. One of our favourite lodges is Singita Sabora Tented Camp, a luxurious step up from classic bush camps. Picture yourself soaking in a bathtub with stunning views of the reserve, right on the route of the Great Wildebeest Migration. It’s like watching a documentary unfold from the comfort of your bed. 

Panoramic views, an infinity pool overlooking the wildlife, modern African interiors, guided tours by experienced rangers and 350,000 acres of private reserve within the Serengeti—there’s no place quite like Singita Sasakwa Lodge. A place of immense freedom and luxury.

There's truly no better way to experience the magnitude and wonders of the Maasai territory than from this wilderness retreat. You have unbeatable views the whole of the Ngorongoro area from your luxurious safari tent. Insanity! 

Six acres of stalls off Suna Road, on the edge of Kibra, make up Nairobi's second largest mitumba market and one of the city's best addresses for real vintage. Traders here sort rails by item rather than piling everything into bales, so a proper leather jacket or a pair of worn in Levi's is far easier to spot than across town at Gikomba. Baby clothes were the original trade back in the 1980s and remain some of the best value on offer. Go on a Wednesday or Saturday morning, when new stock lands and the best pieces are still on the rail. Bring cash, bring patience, and expect to haggle; the first price is never the last one.
