Safari began in Kenya.
Not the modern safari, but the original idea of venturing into wild places in search of something extraordinary.
These are four of our favourite places to experience it…
Images 2-3: House in the Wild
Positioned on a private stretch of the Mara River, it offers a front-row seat to the Great Wildebeest Migration away from the crowds. Beautiful gardens, charming cottages and exceptional guiding create an atmosphere more reminiscent of a private estate than a safari camp.
Images 4-5: Suyian Lodge
At Suyian, the wilderness isn’t something you drive through. It’s something you move through. Ride horseback across the conservancy, track wildlife on foot, mountain bike through remote valleys or spend an afternoon watching elephants drift past from your private plunge pool.
Images 6-7: Borana Lodge
Rhino are one of Africa’s great conservation success stories, and few places showcase that story better than Borana. Today, black and white rhinos roam across a vast protected landscape surrounding the lodge, perched perfectly on the overlooking hillside.
Images 8-9: Segera
Segera has quietly redefined what a safari lodge can be. Set across 50,000 acres of private wilderness, it blends exceptional wildlife viewing with contemporary African art, ambitious rewilding projects and some of the most sophisticated accommodation in East Africa.
