Sun, Sea & Safari Retreat in Kenya 2026

£1,500.00

Experience Africa like never before on our enchanting culinary adventures

Sun, Sea & Safari: A Kenyan Culinary Journey

9 Days | January & September 2026 | Max. 10 Guests

I adore kenya, and for many years the country has pulled me back to its multifaceted landscapes, culture and food. Over the years, I have loved bringing people together to share African recipes, stories, and unforgettable experiences. Now, we can cook, feast, and travel together in luxury, creating memories that will last a lifetime. In Kenya, we will awaken to the most beautiful sunrise, feast on fresh and vibrant flavors inspired by Kenya’s rich culinary heritage, and immerse ourselves in culture and nature in a journey designed to delight every sense. From the sparkling turquoise waters of Diani to the vibrant streets of Nairobi and the golden plains of the Maasai Mara, this is Kenya as you’ve never experienced it. Join me!

Memories from our previous guests

"The trip of a lifetime! The food! Oh, the food! Fresh, organic and prepared to perfection! Excellent host and amazing company. Lerato thought of it all. So many different flavours teased my palate. Her team were amazing and catered to my every need. Thank you for the wonderful memories."
  
Diunde Smith, from Bermuda

"With careful attention and love on Africana Cookery Retreat, the variety of food prepared by Lerato and her team was scrumptious, and the accommodation was excellent, tucked in a secluded breathtaking location with awesome scenery. I highly recommend this cookery retreat to all. Go and explore the beauty that Africa has to offer."
     
Emily, from London
   
"Ghana, the food, the company all made for a great time. Everyone loved their gifts. They are asking about the food. They want me to cook some of your recipes. I loved that you chose such a beautiful and tranquil lodge. I loved the food! There wasn't anything I didn't like. The excursions gave me a good insight into the diversity of Ghana.”
  
Marilyn, from Bermuda
    
Our social & economic impact
   
Through our travels, we will endeavour to give back to our host country, by empowering local people from our tour guides, cooks, and drivers to local producers such as chocolate makers, shea butter producers, organic growers and all who we work with to provide you an enriching experience. As part of our commitment, we will support a chosen charity or social cause in each location of our retreats. Time permitting, we will endeavour to visit our chosen cause or social enterprise that is making a difference in the community.
