Watching Wildlife Watching Wildlife

There is nothing that compares to watching the majestic wildlife in their natural wildlife. For me, it has to be the encounters with Elephants crossing your path. It’s an amazing sight and quite the adrenaline rush!

LandscapesLandscapes

Whether it’s exploring the plains in the shadow of Mt. kenya or taking to the pristine beaches of Kenya coast, nothing compares to the diversity of what you will encounter during your time in Africa.

Guides and RangersGuides and Rangers

What makes a guide truly exceptional is their attention to detail, sense of humor, story-telling ability and total infatuation with the bush and Africa. These qualities elevate experience from the enjoyable to the unforgettable.

Bush ExperienceBush Experience

There is something incredible about night game drives and enjoying your time under the African & Kenya night sky. It is quiet and peaceful, almost surreal. Nothing can compare to a true authentic African safari experience.
