Kenya
Kenya needs no introduction as a legendary wildlife safari and cultural destination. With a stunning array of fauna inhabiting landscapes ranging from snow-capped peaks to vast savannas — and luxury lodges and tented camps offering otherworldly comfort and service surrounded by nature — Kenya is one of the continent’s most essential destinations.
Everyone’s perfect trip looks a little different.
We’ll design your itinerary around you (learn about our process), but to whet your appetite here’s a sample of what you can experience on a bespoke trip to Kenya with us.

Day 1. Arrive in Nairobi and private transfer to your accommodations, a private home and artist studio converted in a tranquil hotel (OneFortyEight).
Day 2. Private vehicle at your disposal for a half-day visit of the nearby Giraffe Sanctuary and David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (a haven for orphaned elephants and rhinos).

“Laura and I had a magical time in Kenya! I don't think we realized how beautiful the land, people and wildlife was until experiencing in person. We both agree that it was a life changing experience and will forever hold our trip to Kenya close to our hearts!”

Unique accommodations.
When it comes to accommodations there is no “one size fits all.”
We typically suggest small, boutique properties with tasteful style and great service, though sometimes it makes sense to stay at a larger luxury hotel (or a cozy lodge)!
For your bespoke trip, we’ll make personalized suggestions based on your unique taste and priorities.
