Luxury Safaris in Kenya

Picture the quintessential African adventure, and the mind turns to Kenya. Boundless golden savannahs scattered with spindly acacias. Elephants at watering holes. Cheetahs and leopards on the hunt. The deep roar of lions at dusk. This is the land of the Great Migration, where two million wildebeest and zebra race across plains patrolled by big cats and crocodiles.

Kenya is where our story began. In the 1960s, Nairobi resident and Abercrombie & Kent founder Geoffrey Kent pioneered the world’s first modern luxury safari, masterminding his bespoke mobile tented camp in the wilds of the Great Rift Valley – a camp unprecedented in its sophistication. Six decades on, Kenya’s safari camps and lodges grow ever more sophisticated, but Abercrombie & Kent continues to set the gold standard for safaris here, with stylish camps and lodges and the best guides in the business. Olonana Lodge, an A&K Sanctuary, is set in the Maasai Mara, its rooms overlooking hippos bathing in the Mara River, while Tambarare Camp, an A&K Sanctuary,​ is the most exclusive place to stay in Ol Pejeta Conservancy, home to a black rhino sanctuary and the last two remaining northern white rhinos on earth. Then there’s our eco-conscious A&K Exclusive Tented Camp, which, in the spirit of Geoffrey Kent’s original, can be set up anywhere in the wildlife-rich plains of the Maasai Mara, with front-row seats at nature’s greatest shows.

Kenya is where our story began. In the 1960s, Geoffrey Kent pioneered the first modern kenya safari. Today, we continue to set the benchmark with bespoke Kenya tours, designed to bring you closer to the wild without compromising on comfort. From Olonana Lodge, overlooking hippos in the Mara River, to Tambarare Camp in Ol Pejeta Conservancy, home to the last two northern white rhinos on earth, our kenya safari tours offer a front-row seat to nature’s greatest spectacles.

Beyond the plains, you’ll find Mount Kenya’s snow-capped peaks, rainforest-cloaked hills, and great lakes bright with flamingos. Along the Indian Ocean coast, white-sand beaches and coral reefs invite moments of reflection. Whether seeking a classic kenya safari, an immersive Kenya tour, or a restorative kenya vacation, this is a destination where adventure lingers long after you leave.
