Itinerary

This is an example of how your wedding could unfold:

Day 1

7.00 - Depart Mombasa for 2 hour transfer to Ngutuni Lodge
9.30 - The bride and groom will be given two separate rooms in opposite wings on either side of the main restaurant. Time to relax, freshen up and dress for the wedding.
11.30 - A group of traditional dancers (male for the groom and female for the bride) lead them to the area in the restaurant overlooking the waterhole, where the wedding takes place.

After the registrar pronounces you man and wife, you will cut your rich fruitcake. Relax and enjoy champagne as the traditional dancers entertain you.

Lunchtime - Lunch is served to you at this wonderful viewpoint, and after lunch the dancers will lead a procession back to your room.

15.00 - You will be taken on a private game drive in Tsavo East National Park. The Park offers the chance to see rhinos, elephants, lions, ostriches and zebras in their natural habitat.

Dinner - You will be served dinner in the lodge restaurant and then overnight at the lodge.

Day 2

After a late breakfast, check out of Ngutuni and proceed on a game drive in the National Park en-route to your Mombasa hotel.

You may wish to bring along your closest family and friends. If you have a small party of up to four extra passengers and you are happy for them to share your vehicle then the supplementary price is $155 per person. This includes transfers to and from Ngutuni lodge, accommodation on a FB basis and the game drives detailed above and park entrance fees.

If you would prefer to have your guests in a separate vehicle, the cost is $247 per additional passenger (minimum 4 persons and maximum 7).

Lodge facilities include a reception area that opens into the bar and restaurant with a long outside terrace offering panoramic views. These public areas are all elevated and have been designed in sympathy with the natural surroundings, with wood floors, timber beams, wood and canvas furniture, and a thatched roof. The lodge's peaceful surroundings will ensure you remain relaxed througout your big day. After sunset, as dinner is served in the restaurant, you can watch in excited anticipation for the arrival of elephants and other animals at the watering hole below you.
