AN AFRICAN ADVENTURE
Worth Experiencing
Some experiences stay with you long after the journey ends.
Imagine waking up to the sounds of the African wilderness, witnessing extraordinary wildlife in its natural habitat, and sharing unforgettable moments with people who appreciate adventure as much as you do.
Over nine days in Kenya, you'll experience breathtaking landscapes, beautiful accommodations, warm hospitality, and the magic of being somewhere truly extraordinary.
And somewhere between the game drives, meaningful conversations, and quiet moments under African skies, you may discover something else: the space to pause, reflect, and see your life from a fresh perspective.
Come for the adventure. Leave with memories that last a lifetime.
Why Travel With Grace?
I was raised in Kenya, and for years I have used part of my annual PTO to lead group Safaris.
What started with work colleagues has become one of the experiences I am proudest to offer through Shooting Star Success.
We work with experienced travel professionals to make the journey seamless, thoughtful, and safe from beginning to end.
Our standards keep rising because our guests keep reminding us how extraordinary this experience can be.
WHO IS
THIS FOR
For those who have dreamed of experiencing Africa, exploring extraordinary landscapes, and creating memories that last a lifetime.
Whether you're traveling solo, with a partner, or with a friend, this journey brings together people who appreciate adventure, meaningful connections, and new perspectives.
You don't need to be at a crossroads in life to join us. You simply need to be curious about what nine extraordinary days in Kenya could make possible.
✦ You have built a career that reads as successful — and still privately carry the question of whether it is the life you actually want to keep building.
✦ You are ready to invest in a catalytic experience rather than another incremental improvement.
✦ You understand that some insights only arrive when you are completely outside your ordinary environment.
✦ You are willing to be in a room — or under a sky — with a small group of people at exactly the same crossroads.
✦ You want a community of high performers who understand exactly where you are — and who would love a symbiotic, mutual relationship.
✦ You may have shelved a dream somewhere in the process of delivering for everyone else. This is where you unshelve it.

is finally real.
Wildlife, city energy, and a warm welcome.
Begin with a game drive in Nairobi National Park, where open grasslands and wildlife meet the city skyline. Keep an eye out for rhinos, lions, giraffes, and other remarkable animals.
Continue to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to learn about elephant rescue and conservation and see the young elephants in its care.

The wide country opens up.
You depart for the Masai Mara, arriving in time for lunch. The afternoon game drive goes searching for the Big Five — lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, Cape buffalo — across a reserve that feels, immediately, larger than anything you've moved through so far.
As the light turns, a sundowner: your drink of choice, the savanna transforming beneath a setting sun that does not look real until you're standing under it.
An evening conversation with Grace offers a chance to share what has surprised or delighted you so far, and what you might want to carry home.
This may be one of them.
The wilderness sets its own pace.
A full day in the Mara — morning and afternoon game drives with lunches back at camp, or a full day out with a picnic lunch in the bush, depending on what the group wants.
The wilderness follows its own rhythm. Take photographs, watch quietly, enjoy the anticipation of the next sighting, and let the day unfold.
Later, a guided conversation with Grace creates space for reflection alongside all the stories and excitement of the day.
with no two moments quite the same.
A sunrise above the Mara. Time to look ahead.
For those who choose it, the day opens before dawn with an optional sunrise hot air balloon safari — a bird's-eye view of the savanna at first light, landing in a champagne bush breakfast in the middle of the wilderness.
Back at camp, a guided Vision Board workshop provides a chance to put some of your reflections into pictures and words, exploring what you might want more of in the life you are building.

One more look back. So much to take home.
Leave the reserve and make your way back to Nairobi, taking in the changing landscapes one last time.
Lunch at the Karen Blixen Coffee Gardens, then a day-room at the Hilton Garden Inn Nairobi Airport Hotel for the last few hours of leisure before your flight — time to reflect, repack, or simply sit with it.
You head home with more than photographs:
· Memories of extraordinary wildlife and landscapes
· Stories and friendships formed along the way
· Reflections, ideas, and perhaps a Vision Board or Life Purpose Statement to revisit
This is one you will have stories
about for years to come.

2023
THE
KENYA SAFARI
What happened in Kenya in 2023.
Where the Adventure Began
Twelve travelers. Eight unforgettable days. One extraordinary Kenyan adventure.
In 2023, twelve professionals from different countries and industries came together for the inaugural Shooting Star Safari.
Over eight days, they explored Kenya's breathtaking landscapes, encountered remarkable wildlife, experienced local culture, and created memories that extended far beyond the journey itself.
From the vibrant energy of Nairobi to the wildlife-rich landscapes of Ol Pejeta and the beauty of Amboseli, every destination brought something new to discover.
There were game drives, cultural experiences, shared meals, laughter, and conversations beneath the African sky.
And somewhere along the way, something wonderful happened.
Strangers became friends.
Moments became stories.
And the experience became something many participants would continue talking about long after returning home.
More Than the Places We Visited
Alongside the adventure, Grace created opportunities for travelers to pause and reflect on the lives they had built and the possibilities ahead.
Through guided conversations, the Wheel of Life, and personal Vision Board activities, participants had space to consider what mattered most to them.
The friendships and connections formed during that inaugural Safari helped establish the foundation for what Shooting Star Success offers today.
The Adventure Continues in 2027
Building on the inaugural experience, the Daring Boldly African Safari returns in 2027 with an expanded nine-day itinerary.
Extraordinary wildlife. Beautiful accommodations. Authentic cultural encounters. Wonderful people.
And the opportunity to experience Kenya in a way that stays with you.
Your own African adventure could be next.
