A tailor-made safari is a private trip designed only for you. You choose where to go, how long to stay, where to sleep and what to see. Our Nairobi team then plans every day around those choices. As a result, you never join a fixed group tour or pay for things you do not want.
Why choose a tailor-made safari?
- Your own vehicle and guide: stop for as long as you like at every sighting.
- Your pace: early starts for photographers, slow mornings for families.
- Your budget: mix luxury camps with mid-range lodges to get the best value.
- Your interests: big cats, birds, culture, gorillas, beaches or all of them.
- Your dates: start any day of the year, with no minimum group size.

Tailor-made safari questions
What is a tailor-made safari?
A tailor-made safari is a private trip designed only for you. You choose the dates, parks, lodges, pace and budget, and we plan every detail around those choices.
Is a tailor-made safari more expensive?
Not always. Because we match lodges and transport to your budget, a tailor-made safari often gives better value than a fixed group tour with extras you do not want.
How long does it take to get my itinerary?
You receive your first tailor-made itinerary and price within 24 hours. After that, we adjust it as many times as you need, free of charge.
Can you combine Kenya with gorillas or a beach?
Yes. We often combine the Maasai Mara with gorilla trekking in Rwanda or Uganda, the Serengeti in Tanzania, or a beach stay in Diani or Zanzibar.
Do you plan safaris for families and honeymooners?
Yes. We plan family safaris with child-friendly lodges and shorter drives, and honeymoon safaris with private dinners, romantic camps and beach finishes.
