Kenya combines the intensity of safaris in the Masai Mara with the gentleness of the Swahili coast. Your itineraries can prioritize wildlife observation in national parks, explore Maasai and Kikuyu traditions, or combine wild nature and beach relaxation. Two-week trips allow a good balance between safaris and cultural discovery, while three weeks allow for extension to Zanzibar. Our itineraries are organized as private trips with English-speaking guides or in small groups of a maximum of 10 people.
