Why Kenya

The country that invented the safari

Kenya holds an improbable amount of country inside one border. You can wake to elephants beneath Kilimanjaro, watch a million wildebeest crowd the Mara River by afternoon, and end the week on the Indian Ocean.

The one everyone asks for

Maasai Mara

Open grassland, the highest predator density in Kenya, and between July and October, the river crossings that draw people back for a lifetime.

  • River crossings on the Mara and Talek between July and October
  • Hot air balloon at first light, landing to breakfast on the plains
  • Conservancy game drives with capped vehicle numbers and night driving
  • Walking safaris with Maasai guides in the private conservancies

Where to go

Nine landscapes, one country

From the short-grass plains of the Mara to the reefs off Watamu.

Maasai Mara

Amboseli, Southern Kenya Southern Kenya

Amboseli

Big-tusked elephants on open pans beneath Kilimanjaro — the most photographed view in East Africa, and it earns the reputation.

Samburu, Northern Kenya Northern Kenya

Samburu

Arid northern country along the Ewaso Nyiro, home to species you will not see anywhere further south.

Laikipia, Central Highlands Central Highlands

Laikipia

Private conservancies at altitude, where conservation is the business model and you can walk, ride and track on foot.

Diani Beach, Indian Ocean Coast Indian Ocean Coast

Diani Beach

White sand, a protected reef and warm water — the natural second half of a Kenyan safari.

How it works

Four conversations, one trip

  1. Step 01

    Tell us the shape

    Dates, pace, who is coming. A conversation, not a form to endure.

  2. Step 02

    We draft a route

    A first itinerary with camps, timings and honest costs, usually within two working days.

  3. Step 03

    We refine it together

    Swap a camp, add the coast, shift a night. We keep revising until it reads right.

  4. Step 04

    You travel, we stay close

    Every transfer arranged, and someone reachable in Nairobi throughout.

In their words

Travellers who trusted us with the trip

We were told the crossings were unpredictable and we appreciated the honesty — so when we sat above the Mara river for four hours and it finally happened, it felt earned rather than sold to us. Our guide read it before anyone else did.

Claire & Tom Whitfield, United Kingdom The Mara in Style

Samburu was the part I had not thought about and it is the part I still talk about. Completely different country, almost no other vehicles, and a leopard on the riverbank on the first evening.

Anneke de Vries, Netherlands Wild Kenya: Mara to Samburu

Travelling with a seven and a ten year old, the direct flight from the Mara to Diani was worth every shilling. No long drive, no wasted day. The children were in the sea by lunchtime on the day we left camp.

The Osei Family, Ghana Safari & Sea

Fifteen days sounds indulgent until you do it. Laikipia was the surprise — tracking rhino on foot with the rangers who monitor them is not a game drive, it is something else entirely.

Marcus Lindqvist, Sweden The Ultimate Kenya Journey

We asked for no fuss and got exactly that. Nobody announced us as honeymooners, the bush dinner simply appeared, and Watamu was as quiet as promised.

Priya & Rohan Mehta, India Kenya Honeymoon Escape

As a Kenyan I have been to Amboseli many times and still learned things. The mountain only cleared properly on one of our three mornings, which is nobody's fault, but they had warned us that would likely happen.
