Rekindle the magic of the Festive season with Elewana Collection
When you think of Christmas, most people in the northern hemisphere imagine white snow and cold blustery days filled with the sound of Christmas carols, when you think of New Year, first thoughts are fireworks, lots of people and a glass or two of bubbly. If you are looking to experience something new then come to East Africa and Elewana Collection will delight you with festive moments you will never forget.
Before the warm African sun rises, head out on your morning adventure from Elewana Elephant Pepper Camp, on the lookout for nature’s dramatic theatre to play out at a moment’s notice , you never know what you may see on Christmas morning. Famished from the excitement, a tantalizing bush breakfast with sparkling wine awaits you, offering a selection of fresh fruit, cereal and the irresistible cooked breakfast with all the trimmings. Take a horse ride across the stunning landscape, enjoying the warmth of the wind or float above the plains in a hot air balloon as you wonder at the beauty of the Masai Mara and the boundless wildlife which lives here.

There is fun for the whole family, as we treat you to a host of Christmas activities, which include a special children’s walk with a professional guide, sundowners around a camp fire with Christmas canapes to African drumming and singing at dinner.
