'I ate breakfast next to elephants and drank G&Ts at sunset on a magical safari'

On my first morning in Flatdogs Safari Camp, a cheeky little Vervet monkey was sitting by the tent waiting for me.

He gave me a look as if to say: "What do you think you're doing here?" I might have replied: "Having a lovely time, thank you very much."

The safari tent has a shower where you stand under the stars to contemplate life before a dawn safari drive.

On the first day here, there were two male bull elephants squaring up to each other a matter of yards away.

There was also a giraffe feeding high in the trees during a tour of the tree house accommodation which has dramatic views of the East African plains where you can see the wildlife wandering by.
