Kenya

Kenya is the most accessible safari country and home to the Maasai Mara — the northern extension of the Serengeti and arguably the densest concentration of big cats on the continent. Combine it with a Tanzania crossover and you've covered the two great wildlife ecosystems of East Africa.

Our Africa specialist works only with mid-size (12–16 tent), owner-operated camps where the head guide tier is the differentiator. We don't book the giants — the experience flattens at scale.

Best in July through October for the Mara crossings. Quieter and significantly less expensive in shoulder months, when the game is still excellent.
