Accommodation Types

Kenya offers a variety of accommodations to suit your preferences and budget. We can recommend the best places to stay in Kenya, allowing you to connect with nature. From beautiful lodges, and permanent tented camps, to adventure camping.

  • Lodges

    Safari lodges in Kenya are built using natural materials to blend seamlessly into the landscape.

    Rooms offer wilderness views, an ensuite bathroom, and a bed with fine linen.

    The warm hospitality, spacious verandas, fire pits, and pools ensure guests enjoy a relaxing wilderness experience.

    Permanent structures

    Different from tented camps, lodges have solid walls, like the Serena Lodges.

  • Tented Camps

    Permanent tented camps are similar to lodges but offer a closeness to nature thanks to their canvas walls.

    The large bedroom tents have solid floors, double beds, and ensuite bathrooms with hot showers, leaving no comfort to the imagination.

    Additionally, communal areas with stunning views provide a romantic setting for dinner and to relax around a crackling fire.

    Adventure camping offers a deeper immersion into the wild.

    Staying in two-person tents in public campsites with shared ablution blocks allows you to experience the same excellent game drives at a slightly lower price.

    Our team will set up camp, and a safari chef will prepare three delicious meals.

Luxury Safaris

Luxury in Kenya goes beyond world-class accommodation. It entails staying in secluded wildernesses that few people have visited. Luxury safaris allow you to imagine every detail and have a country expert handle your arrangements. With exceptional facilities, hospitality, and cuisine, you can anticipate a deep immersion in nature and style.

Experiences & Activities Whilst On Guided Kenya Safaris

Kenya is a top destination for a safe and memorable safari, offering incredible wildlife viewing and diverse accommodation options.

Private conservancies in northern Kenya and bordering the Masai Mara National Reserve provide unique experiences for all ages, including guided bush walks, riding electric bikes and horses, joining a lion tracking team and spotting rare species like rhinos.

You can combine your safari with a trek up Mount Kenya or a relaxing beach getaway on Kenya’s tropical coastline of the Indian Ocean.

  • Classic Game Drives

    The highlight of a Kenya safari is the game drives.

    Most wildlife activity occurs at dawn and dusk, so game drives are conducted in the early morning and late afternoon to increase the chances of spotting various species and witnessing predator-prey interactions.

    When you travel with us, expert guides will drive you in a 4×4 vehicle equipped with large windows, a fridge, charging ports, and a pop-up roof.

    Visiting Kenya during the dry season, from June to October, is the best time for game drives as it offers the best weather and wildlife viewing conditions.

  • Photo Safaris

    Kenya is a fantastic destination for a photography safari. We will pair you with expert guides who know how to get you in the right place at the right time to compose beautiful photographs.

    There are even camps with hides that allow you to capture wildlife photography at eye level.

    Thanks to Kenya’s diverse landscapes, shaped by tectonic and volcanic activity millions of years ago, you can capture amazing landscape photography in different settings.

    We recommend photography safaris during or after the rainy seasons, which offer dramatic cloud formations, crisp light free of dust, and vibrant green landscapes.

  • Walking Safaris

    Walking safaris offer a unique way to immerse yourself in Kenya’s wilderness, engaging all of your senses while leaving the car behind and letting expert guides reveal nature’s secrets.

    On a private safari, you can include a walking safari through private conservancies or remote regions in your itinerary.

    You can customise the walking experience to match your fitness level and preference: from a short hour-long walk, a full-day hike, a multi-day trek in secluded areas of Kenya or trekking Mount Kenya.

    Join us on a walking safari on foot for an unforgettable guided Kenya safari!

  • Balloon Safaris

    Balloon safaris occur in the Masai Mara National Reserve and just outside Amboseli National Park.They can be described in one word: magical.

    You arrive at the departure area just before dawn. Climb into the wicker basket, and a few minutes later, you’ll be airborne, floating silently over the plains.

    Take in the breathtaking scenery and animal activity below.

    After an approximately one-hour flight, savour a bubbly breakfast beneath a grand acacia tree – the perfect conclusion to an unforgettable morning.
