Linger with a lion pride, pivot for that perfect Kilimanjaro shot, break for coffee where the light is golden.
With a private 4×4 and dedicated guide, Kenya’s greatest hits unfold entirely on your terms.

Private Safari Overview

This hand-crafted route links Amboseli (elephants under the snowcap of Mount Kilimanjaro),
Lake Nakuru (rhinos & seasonal flamingos), and the legendary Masai Mara (big cats and, in season,
the Great Migration). Your guide fine-tunes timing and routes for light, wildlife and your interests—photography,
birding, or simply unhurried encounters.
