This is our way of providing you with a unique insight into an Africa few visitors have the opportunity to experience. We pitch private tented camps in foremost wildlife areas and outfit them to suit your individual taste. This is the ultimate and most authentic form of safari.

Our luxury tents are custom made, walk-in tents, using heavy duty canvas. Each tent is set with campaign furniture and hand woven rugs in warm organic colours to blend in with the environment. Your personal tent attendant will make sure that the Egyptian cotton sheets on your large, comfortable bed are crisp and that a hot water bottle is slipped beneath your duvet if there is a chilly night. While you are at supper, he will have turned down your bed and drawn around your mosquito net. Our tents are solar powered so that you have two bright bedside reading lamps and an overhead light in your bedroom and bathroom.

Your tent attendant will be at hand to make sure that your bucket shower is mixed to the perfect temperature for whatever time of day or night you choose to bathe. You have a fully flushing, ceramic toilet and even running water in your basin.

Three main meals are served each day. The best safari plan is that played by ear so we will improvise to suit your schedule and will even prepare delicious picnics for you to take with you into the bush if you so choose. Otherwise meals are taken in our large candle lit mess tent.

Our delicious meals are prepared with the very freshest ingredients and we will gladly observe any special dietary preferences. Our expert cooks take full advantage of vegetables and salads that are in season and are up before anyone else in camp to bake the finest breads and pastries for your breakfast.

Wines, spirits, beers and soft drinks are included in the tariff. All are served in the finest crystal glass with a clink of ice - a welcome luxury in the bush.

A fully professional safari guide will design each of your days to suit your own pace. He or she will seek out the big game and introduce you to the cultural and historical aspects of East Africa to maximize your enjoyment.

We provide nannies, photographers, bodyguards, filmmakers and other specialists on request.

A safari has no fixed time scale and guests can even stay for a month or more. We are entirely flexible and will pitch a full luxury camp for as few as 2 guests and as many as 80.

Community Initiatives and Ecological Sensitivity

We involve as many community initiatives as possible. For example, we have Rwandan refugees hand crafting our rugs and bed covers; we have a group of Samburu ladies making our leatherwork and beading our furnishings; we have Maasai and Samburu warriors to keep watch in the camp at night; we fully support Friends of Conservation.

Ecologically this practice is ideal as we leave no permanent fixtures and allow the environment to remain as pristine as we first found it.
