The Masai Mara safari is Kenya’s crown jewel — vast savannahs, big cats, and endless adventure. Families can enjoy private vehicles, balloon safaris, and guided bush picnics.
Famous for elephants and Kilimanjaro views. Ideal for younger children with short, easy drives and abundant wildlife.
Perfect for birdwatching, rhino sightings, and gentle game drives. The park’s compact size makes it great for family safaris.
A sanctuary for rhinos and chimpanzees — and a great place to teach kids about conservation.
After your safari, unwind by the ocean — swim, snorkel, or build sandcastles on Kenya’s most beautiful beach.
We understand every family has different travel goals:
Budget packages: Group vehicles, comfortable budget camps, shared experiences
Mid-range packages: Private vehicles, mid-range lodges, personalised guides
Best time for Kenya safari:
June to October: Dry season — best wildlife viewing.
December to March: Warm weather and shorter grass — great visibility.
Travel Tip: Family safaris are enjoyable year-round; even the green season (April–May) offers fewer crowds and lower rates.
