Details
See the world with new eyes. Join award-winning photographer Mia Collis and Yoga teacher Laura Bunting for a 6-night retreat in the heart of Kenya’s wilderness. The Art of the Wild blends guided photography, mindfulness, and quiet safari exploration into one creative, soul-restoring experience. This is not a traditional photography course. This is not a meditation retreat. This is something else entirely — a space to slow down, reconnect, and explore in the heart of the wilderness. Is this retreat for you? This retreat is designed for anyone curious about photography and eager to deepen their connection with what they see. Whether you love photography and want to explore wildlife photography or are simply curious about meditation, mindfulness, and slowing down, this experience offers something for you. If you crave time in nature away from the noise and prefer a small group setting that fosters spaciousness, depth, and meaningful connection, this retreat is a perfect fit. Rest assured that no prior experience in photography or meditation is required to join.

House of Waine - Nairobi Your retreat begins in the leafy suburb of Karen. After you arrive at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, you’ll be welcomed and transferred to House of Waine. A boutique hotel known for its serenity, warmth, and locally inspired cuisine. You’ll stay here for one night before heading to Kenyan’s plains. Enasoit Camp - Laikipia Plateau Set on 4,500 private acres, Enasoit is one of Kenya’s most exclusive private conservancies. This is where the retreat unfolds - in a camp that feels more like a private home than a hotel. Each tented cottage is beautifully appointed, with views across open plains where giraffe, buffalo, and zebra roam freely. There’s an open-air lounge, a pool, and spaces to gather - or to disappear into silence.

On retreat we are focused on food that is all about nourishment. Fresh, seasonal, and full of flavour, our meals are designed to leave you feeling grounded, energised, and deeply cared for. Think home-grown herbs, garden vegetables, and recipes that celebrate the joy of eating well. At Wildlife & Yoga, we believe food is part of the experience - wholesome, soulful, and shared around the table. We cater to dietary requirements so please communicate this with the organisers so we can plan accordingly.
