Kenya is one of the best places in the world for<br />
safaris, with over 40 national parks and game<br />
reserves. The wildebeest migration from July to<br />
October is one of nature’s most spectacular sights,<br />
an astonishing natural phenomenon.<br />
Join one of our fantastic safaris and traverse the<br />
plains spotting zebra and elephant on the horizon,<br />
or lions lazing in the shade of an acacia tree.<br />
Slowing to a halt, soak in a wild panorama<br />
engrossed in the daily soap opera of life in the wild.<br />
Delight in the ultimate safari experience by<br />
soaring up during a hot-air balloon flight, gently<br />
skimming the tree tops as the sun rises in a pink<br />
and orange blaze, the wildebeest skittering on the<br />
plains of the Maasai Mara below.<br />
Take the kids on a thrilling adventure as you<br />
search for game through stunning landscapes on<br />
our Family Safari, or for relaxation, combine a<br />
safari with a stay in a beachside retreat, relaxing on<br />
beautiful white sand beaches and diving in the<br />
Indian Ocean – an underwater paradise of dazzling<br />
coral and fish.<br />
We’re passionate about Kenya and have created<br />
inspirational safaris and searched arid plains,<br />
lively cities and beach resorts to find the finest<br />
luxury tented camps and most blissful spa resorts<br />
on the coast. Book today.<br />
