Kenya

The ultimate ‘bush and beach’ destination, a luxury holiday in Kenya is a classic getaway. Best of all, the country appeals to honeymooners and families alike and everyone in between, so see our Honeymoon Kenya, Family Safari in Kenya and other trip pages for more details. Several members of the Original team here have either lived, worked or were brought up in Kenya, and we revisit existing properties and new lodges on a regular basis and work with only the very best guides.

While Kenya is best known for the lodges and landscape of the Masai Mara and the two million wildebeest, zebra and gazelle who migrate there annually, there are other – more family-friendly - lodges in Meru National Park or a safari in the Laikipia region. Children can spend their holiday in Kenya identifying animal tracks, making bows and arrows, fishing, horse riding or camel trekking in the company of Samburu or Masai warriors.

Elsewhere, and relatively untouched by the modern world, the beaches of the Kenya Coast are lapped by the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. We use the very best properties and can arrange a huge variety of watersports, from waterskiing and windsurfing to swimming with dolphins, snorkelling on the reefs and exploring the mangrove creeks by kayak. Finally, we can arrange private trips to the more remote corners of the Rift Valley Lakes - havens for flamingo and myriad other birds - while further north still Lake Turkana, the Jade Sea, lies amidst the desert wilderness.
