Where you go, and why
Nairobi — tournament days
Time the trip to the Magical Kenya Open and spend two days inside the ropes' reach at Muthaiga Golf Club, watching DP World Tour professionals tackle the grand old course at altitude. Warm up your own game at Karen Country Club beneath the Ngong Hills — then, once the trophy's lifted, take on Muthaiga yourself, pin positions still fresh, grandstands still up, bragging rights eternal.
STAY Hemingways Nairobi
The Maasai Mara
Fly west to Africa's most famous savanna to celebrate. Big cats on morning drives, sundowners on the escarpment, and a fireside debate about whether your back nine at Muthaiga beats a leopard sighting. (It doesn't. It's close.)
STAY Angama Mara
Every journey is a starting shape, not a fixed product — add nights, swap lodges, bring the Gallery. Guide price per person sharing, excluding international flights; confirmed precisely in writing before you commit.
Asked before you booked
How much does Kenya Open Week cost?
Guide price is from US$8,900 per person sharing, excluding international flights. For an exact figure, use the Price a Private Version tool — adjust the nights, rounds and experiences and our quoting engine returns your private price, checked by a specialist, usually within one working day.
How many rounds of golf are on this journey?
2 rounds are built in — Muthaiga Golf Club (post-tournament round), Karen Country Club. Every round can be kept, swapped or dropped when you price your private version.
Can my non-golfing partner come?
Absolutely — this is the heart of how we design. While the golfers play, the Gallery programme runs parallel experiences (game drives, spas, wine, walks, markets), and everyone reunites for lunch or sundowners. Non-golfers never sit out a day.
When is the best time to take this journey?
Best months are Feb · Mar (tournament week). We will be honest about the trade-offs of any month you are considering — every season has its version of this trip.
Where will we stay?
Exact, named properties at every stop — on this journey: Hemingways Nairobi, Angama Mara. Every property is hand-picked from our register; none paid for, none reciprocated.
Do I need a visa for Kenya?
Kenya uses a simple online eTA (electronic travel authorisation) which most nationalities complete in minutes before travel. We send you the link and walk you through it at booking.
When is the wildebeest migration in the Maasai Mara?
The great herds are usually in the Mara from July to October, with the famous river crossings most likely August and September. If the migration is your priority, tell us — we will set the dates around it and be honest about what each month usually delivers.
Do I need malaria tablets and a yellow fever certificate?
Malaria prophylaxis is advised for the Mara, Amboseli and the coast — Nairobi itself is low-risk. A yellow fever certificate is only required if you arrive from certain countries; we confirm exactly what your routing needs at booking.
Tell us how you want to feel when you come home.
We'll build the wild, and the golf, around that — and nothing else.
