Kenya, planned independently.

Private safaris designed by a consultant who checks every operator before you pay a shilling. You pay a fixed planning fee, then book and pay a TRA-licensed operator directly. We take nothing from operators, so the advice is not for sale.

Questions
Why not book through the operator directly?
You can, and you will: the operator contracts and invoices you. What you pay us for is choosing the right operator and camps, comparing quotes, and checking licences, vehicles and insurance first. We take nothing from the operator, so the advice is not for sale.
Are you a tour operator?
No. We are travel consultants. Every trip is run by a tour operator licensed by Kenya’s Tourism Regulatory Authority, and you can see that licence before you pay.
What does the planning fee cover?
A written itinerary, quotes from two or three operators where the trip allows, a verification sheet for the operator you choose, and WhatsApp support while you travel. The fee is due before planning starts and is not refundable once the itinerary is delivered.
How are prices shown?
Trip prices on this site are indicative from-prices per person sharing. The operator’s written quote is the real price, and you see it before committing to anything.
Do residents and citizens pay less?
Usually, yes. Park and conservancy fees for Kenyan citizens and residents are far lower than non-resident fees, and many camps have resident rates. We ask for the right rate for each passport in your group.
