Kenya Safaris to Make Your Own
Our private luxury safaris in Kenya start in Nairobi and take you to the great wildlife areas: the Maasai Mara, Amboseli beneath Kilimanjaro, Lake Naivasha and, on longer trips, the conservancies of Laikipia and Samburu. Many routes end with a light-aircraft flight to the Indian Ocean at Diani Beach or the old Swahili town of Lamu. Choose an itinerary below, then let our travel team adapt the camps, lodges and pace to your dates and the season. Every safari is private, with your own 4×4 and driver-guide.

LOCAL KNOWLEDGE, PERSONAL CARE
Where our story began
Our founder, Mohamed, grew up near Merzouga in Morocco and founded Morocco Top Trips in 2017. Luxury Tours Agency brings that same care to your private journey in Kenya, with thoughtful planning and a team available throughout your trip.
- Since 2017
- Private safaris only
- Your own driver-guide
- 24/7 support
Why Travel With Us
In Kenya, we work with a local safari company that we have vetted carefully and know well, so your driver-guide, your vehicle and your lodges and camps are in the hands of people we trust. We don’t resell other people’s trips. Our story began in Morocco, where since 2017, as Morocco Top Trips, our own team has planned and run every journey, from the first message to the last airport transfer. That way of working shapes every trip we plan elsewhere, and you keep one team to talk to from start to finish.
Discover Kenya, Your Way
The right camp is part of the safari. Kenya’s wildlife areas each have their own character, from the open plains of the Maasai Mara to the elephants of Amboseli and the rare species of the northern conservancies, and the coast is a short flight away. Choose the places that interest you, and we will connect them in a private safari that suits the season.
Big cats & the Migration
Maasai Mara
Open plains, lions, cheetahs and, from about July to October, the herds of the Great Migration. Several nights let you explore rather than rush.
Elephants beneath Kilimanjaro
Amboseli
Watch large elephant families cross the swamps, with Kilimanjaro rising behind them on clear mornings.
A walking safari by the lake
Lake Naivasha
Take a boat across the lake and walk among giraffes, zebras and antelopes on Crescent Island.
Rhinos & private conservancies
Laikipia
Wide views of Mount Kenya, rhinos, and quiet conservancies where small camps welcome only a few guests.
The wild north
Samburu
A dry, beautiful landscape along the river, home to species found only in the north, such as the reticulated giraffe and Grevy’s zebra.
White sand & warm water
Diani Beach
Finish your safari with a few slow days on a long white beach on the Indian Ocean.
Swahili island town
Lamu
No cars, narrow lanes, carved doors and dhows on the water: an old Swahili town with a calm, timeless pace.
Big cats, elephants or a beach finish? Tell us what you enjoy and when you can travel, and we will help you choose your route.
Experiences to Add to Your Journey
Make your Kenya safari more personal with experiences that match your interests. Float over the Mara at sunrise, meet the orphaned elephants of Nairobi or sail a dhow at Lamu. We help you choose what fits your route, the season and your pace.
Balloon over the Mara
Drift over the plains at dawn as the wildlife wakes up below, on request and weather permitting.
The Elephant Orphans
Visit the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust nursery in Nairobi, where orphaned baby elephants are cared for.
The Giraffe Centre
Meet the endangered Rothschild’s giraffes face to face at the Giraffe Centre in Nairobi.
A Dhow Sail at Lamu
Sail a traditional wooden dhow off Shela as the sun goes down, included on our Lamu route.
Reefs near Wasini
Take a dhow to the Kisite-Mpunguti Marine Park from Diani to snorkel and look for dolphins. On request.
Cycling in Hell’s Gate
Ride a bicycle among zebras and giraffes beneath red cliffs, one of the few parks where you can. On request.
We can include these experiences in your private itinerary. Availability, weather conditions, participation requirements, and any additional costs are confirmed in your proposal.
A FEW THINGS TO KNOW
Kenya at a Glance
A practical introduction to the country, so you can feel prepared before your private Kenya tour.
Languages
Swahili & English
Swahili and English are both official languages, and English is spoken in all lodges, camps and hotels.
Currency
Kenyan shilling · KES
Cards work in most lodges and hotels. US dollars in clean, recent notes are useful for tips.
Weather & seasons
Two dry seasons
January to February and June to October are dry and best for game viewing. The long rains fall around April and May.
Getting here
Nairobi
Most safaris start at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi. Light aircraft then connect the parks and the coast.
Local time
EAT · UTC+3
Kenya keeps East Africa Time all year, with no change of clocks.
Culture & etiquette
Warm and welcoming
Ask before photographing people, including Maasai communities. Single-use plastic bags are banned, so leave them at home.
Before You Travel
Entry & travel authorization
All visitors need an electronic travel authorization (eTA) before traveling to Kenya, and the government travel health insurance is bought with it. These are not included in our prices. Check the current rules on the official Kenya eTA page before you travel.
Health preparation
Talk to your doctor or a travel clinic well before you go about vaccinations and malaria prevention, and follow their advice. A yellow fever certificate may be required depending on the countries you travel through.
Packing & luggage
Light-aircraft flights allow soft bags only, usually up to 15 kg per person. Pack neutral colors for game drives, a warm layer for early mornings, a hat and sun protection, and binoculars if you have them.
Wildlife & responsible visits
Animals are wild and every sighting is a gift, so no guide can promise a particular animal or a river crossing. Your driver-guide keeps a respectful distance and follows park rules, which also makes for calmer, better sightings.
Practical information checked November 2026. For current official guidance, see the Kenya Tourism Board.

Your Kenya Tour Questions
Our private Kenya safaris start from $4,395 per person for 7 days in the Luxury Package, based on two travelers sharing a room or tent, with full board during the safari. The final price depends on the season, the size of your group and the package you choose: the Premium Package moves you up to boutique lodges and premium tented camps, and the VIP Package adds the finest stays and all meals. Groups of four or more pay less per person. You can compare every tour and its starting price in the list above, and we confirm your exact price in a personal proposal.
For most first-time visitors we recommend our 10-day Kenya safari. It covers Nairobi, a walking safari at Lake Naivasha and three nights in the Maasai Mara, then a light-aircraft flight to Diani Beach for four calm nights by the sea. With a week, the 7- and 8-day safaris focus on the Maasai Mara and Amboseli or Lake Naivasha. With two weeks you can add Laikipia, Samburu or the island of Lamu.
Seven or eight days give you a full safari in the Maasai Mara with Amboseli or Lake Naivasha. Ten to twelve days add the beach at Diani. Fourteen or fifteen days take in the northern conservancies of Laikipia and Samburu, or Lamu, at an unhurried pace.
The dry seasons, from January to February and from June to October, are the best times for game viewing. Here is a quick guide by month:
- January to February: warm, dry and excellent for wildlife, with fewer visitors than in summer.
- March to May: the long rains. Green landscapes and quiet parks; some camps close in April and May.
- June to October: the classic safari season. The Great Migration is usually in the Maasai Mara from about July to October.
- November to December: the short rains bring green grass and newborn animals. Busy around the holidays at the end of December.
Kenya is one of Africa’s best-known safari destinations, and the parks, conservancies and lodges are well organized for visitors. In Nairobi, take normal city care with valuables and do not walk around after dark. Some areas near the Somali border carry government warnings, and our routes stay in the main safari regions and on the coast. On a private safari your driver-guide is with you throughout. Before you book, and again before you travel, check the current advice from your own government, such as the U.S. State Department or the UK Foreign Office. Our team follows local conditions and is available 24/7 during your trip.
