The dry season from late June to October offers the best conditions: clear skies, great wildlife viewing and the Great Wildebeest Migration from July to September. The green season (November to May) is quieter, cheaper and beautiful, with newborn animals across the plains.
It depends on what you want to see. The Maasai Mara is famous for the Big Five and the Migration, Amboseli for elephants beneath Kilimanjaro, Lake Nakuru for flamingos and rhinos, and Samburu for its unique northern species. Our specialists will help you pair them into one perfect route.
Kenya does both brilliantly. If you love wildlife and epic landscapes, spend your days in the Mara, Amboseli or Tsavo. If you dream of white sand and turquoise water, Diani Beach, Watamu and Malindi await. Book a per-booking combination and enjoy the best of both on one trip.
Most of our packages include accommodation, park and conservancy fees, game drives in 4x4 vehicles, professional English-speaking guides, airport transfers and meals as indicated. International flights, visas and items of a personal nature are quoted separately and clearly before booking.
Most visitors from the Americas join the Kenya eVisa, which you can apply for online before travel. It is quick to process and we will guide you through the application. Please always confirm the latest entry requirements with your nearest Kenyan embassy before departure.
Pack neutral-coloured, light clothing, a warm jacket for chilly morning game drives, comfortable walking shoes, sunscreen, insect repellent and, of course, a camera with a good zoom lens. Review our Kenya packing list, accessible in the travel guide, for the full checklist.
Yes. Kenya is one of Africa’s most established tourist destinations and millions of travellers visit every year. You will be guided by experienced local drivers, stay in secure lodges and camps, and our team is available 24/7 to support you throughout your journey.
Absolutely — every journey is tailor-made. Choose your parks, your pace, your lodges and your activities, from hot-air ballooning over the Mara to community visits and quiet days at the coast. Tell us your dream and we will design every detail around it.
We recommend a minimum of 4–5 days for a comfortable safari covering one or two parks, and 7–10 days to enjoy a fuller experience with beach time included. A typical Maasai Mara safari is 4 days, and a classic Kenya holiday runs for 7 to 9 days.
Our standard booking conditions allow free date changes up to 30 days before arrival and retain a small deposit portion for cancellations made later, depending on the hotels. We always recommend flexible travel insurance to protect your trip.
