Tours

Over the years we have sidestepped the lure of operating only popular tourist routes, encompassing unique ecological areas of East Africa, adventure (river rafting, mounting climbing, hiking, sailing, cycling, etc); special interest and cultural / historical tours incorporating experiences of East Africa

Include wild game; bird watching; game fishing; photographic safaris; adventure excursions in search of insects, fossils, rare mammals and plant life; overlanders & trails.

Tours are constructed on the following basis:
A - Self-driven customizable tours with detailed personal itineraries with optional side excursions.
B - Tourist Guided Tours / Safaris in custom built safari minivans with carefully selected KPSGA (Kenya Professional Safaris Guides) registered guide to provide professional skills and knowledge of the areas within which we operate.
