History and romance are age-old collaborations that never fade. Real-life fairy tales are almost
mythical, but here in Africa where magical tales are woven; dreams do come true. When you
think of fairy tales two things that come to mind are castles and of course, a happily ever after.
Overlooking the Laikipia plains, sharing shutter space with the breathtaking Aberdare Ranges
and Mt. Kenya is Tafaria Castle. This picturesque gem is a place where beauty, romance, fun,
and history thrive.
Take a carriage ride like a king and queen. Ride a horse like a knight chasing after your damsel.
Load your bow and let your arrows fly at the archery range. Give your eyes an experience in the
art gallery and museum. Daydream and stargaze in the open-air auditorium. Dance the night
away in the dungeon disco. Fall asleep as Lord and Lady of the castle. Wake up to the mountains
at your feet as you go down the fountain staircase, where what was once upon a dream; is now
happily ever after.
