What Makes Our Kenya Tours Special?

  • The Best of Samburu & the Mara — We pair two reserves for maximum wildlife diversity. In Samburu, you’ll track six rare species—including Grevy’s zebra and reticulated giraffe. In the Mara and its private conservancies, we choose remote camps for prime wildlife viewing and, in season, the best vantage points for wildebeest river crossings.
  • Giraffe Manor & Beyond — Begin your safari at one of Africa’s most iconic properties, where Rothschild’s giraffes join you for breakfast on the terrace. From here, visit the sister property in Samburu, a luxury tented camp with deep ties to the local community set amid northern Kenya’s striking landscape.
  • Private Conservancy Camps, Built for Access — Our camps sit on quiet, private concessions along the Ewaso Nyiro River in Samburu, where elephants bathe steps from your tent. Conservancy access unlocks experiences the national parks don’t allow: off-road driving to follow a hunt, night game drives, guided bush walks, and cultural visits with local communities.
  • Up-Close Conservation Experiences — Every trip includes a visit to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to meet orphaned baby elephants. Upgrade to a private “Sponsor” visit for a behind-the-scenes experience with the keepers. WT is also a founding member of Friends of Serengeti, supporting the long-term protection of this ecosystem.
  • More Time on Safari, Less Time in Transit — Scenic charter flights between reserves maximize your time with wildlife and give you aerial views of Kenya’s sweeping landscapes. On the ground, our custom vehicles guarantee every traveler a window seat with easy roof access for photography.
