But what’s a luxury safari?
Well, a luxury safari offers an enhanced level of comfort and convenience. Comfort usually comes with amenities at your place of accommodation including luxurious dining options. What stands out for a luxury safari is the added freedom and convenience, such as private airport transfers, exclusive and unguided game drives with access to private conservancies, complete privacy in your accommodation quarters and personalized service from highly trained professionals.
Is Kenya known to offer luxurious experiences during safari?
Since the 1950s dignitaries including the late Queen Elizabeth chose to visit Kenya on a safari spending her time at the infamous (now closed) Tree Top Hotel. The Hotel was located in the Aberdare National Park. Kenya has an advanced tourist economy and many private lodges offer unmatched service and amenities that will make your stay all the more memorable.
Where can I find these lodges?
Our luxurious safari packages focus on key tourist circuits that include visits to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru N. Park, Lake Naivasha N. Park, Ol Pejeta, Lewa, Tsavo, Amboseli, and Nairobi, among other destinations.
Each of these breathtaking destinations offers a wide array of exquisite lodges, each with its own unique charm, characteristics, and exceptional services. From luxurious accommodations nestled in lush greenery to cozy cottages with panoramic views, you’ll find the perfect haven to immerse yourself in the beauty and tranquility of nature. Whether you seek a relaxing retreat or an adventurous escape, these lodges cater to every traveler’s desires, ensuring an unforgettable experience filled with comfort and indulgence.
