Safari Packages

Six routes through Kenya’s reserves and conservancies, each one built around a single private guide and vehicle from first night to last. Every itinerary below can be lengthened, shortened, or rebuilt from scratch.

Kenya, Start to Finish

Ten Routes, One Country

Every itinerary below stays inside Kenya — the Mara, Amboseli, Samburu, and Tsavo for game viewing; Diani and the North Coast to unwind; the Rift Valley lakes and Mount Kenya for everything in between.

What Sets Each Tier Apart

Before You Enquire

Good to Know

Answers to what we’re asked most before a first call. Anything else — call the reservation line above or send us your dates.

Every quoted rate covers full-board accommodation, all park and conservancy fees, a private or shared 4×4 with driver-guide as noted, and road or domestic-flight transfers between stops. International flights, the Kenya e-Visa, travel insurance, alcoholic drinks at most camps, gratuities, and optional activities like the hot-air balloon are quoted separately when you enquire.

Mostly park fees — the Maasai Mara reserve fee runs well above what Tsavo or Samburu charge, and the best Mara camps sit inside private conservancies with their own conservancy fee on top. Tsavo and Samburu offer comparable wildlife density at a noticeably lower nightly rate, which is why we route first-time, budget-conscious travelers there.

July to October covers the wildebeest migration and the Mara River crossings — book six to nine months out for this window. January to March is warm, dry, and quieter across the parks. April to June is the green season: lower rates, fewer guests, and excellent resident game viewing, with the trade-off of afternoon rain.

Yes — every package on this page is a starting point. We adjust nights per camp, swap in private conservancies, combine a safari with Diani or Watamu on the back end, or rebuild the route entirely around a specific date or budget.

A 30% deposit secures your camp inventory and guide allocation, with the balance due 60 days before arrival. Camps inside private conservancies often require full payment earlier due to limited tent availability.

Every trip includes a private guide, vehicle, and camp from first night to last.
