Abner Ongeri grew up in Kisii, a few hours from the edge of the Maasai Mara. He watched the migration cross long before the world arrived to photograph it.
It shows in the small things. Which suite catches Kilimanjaro at a quarter to seven. Which guide suits a nervous first timer. Which conservancy holds the cats in September.
Kenyan owned and Kenyan run, from an office in Karen. Four awards in two years, and 4.9 from more than 170 guests. Neither is the reason to choose us.
The reason is that we stay small on purpose. The person who designs your journey is the person who answers when you call from an airstrip at six in the morning.
See Our Story →Some people would rather fill something in at midnight. Others would rather talk. Both land with the same designer.
Fill in Plan Your Safari at your own pace, or write, call or WhatsApp. Not sure yet is a real answer.
One named person, a real route back within a day, and an honest note on anything that will not work as imagined.
Most journeys change shape once or twice before they are right. Nothing is fixed until you say it is.
The same person from the first call to the last transfer. Kenya based, so it is a phone call rather than an overnight email.
Curated, tested, and refined over years — our most loved luxury safari itineraries across East Africa and the Indian Ocean Islands.

One expert team. One point of contact. No handovers, no guesswork.
Designed with intention, curated with precision. Every detail is tailored to you — creating a journey that is entirely your own.
We know Africa beyond the map. Seasons, movements, camps, and moments that matter.
Through Ongeri Philanthropy, a share of every journey funds the conservation and community projects we support each year. Not a gesture. A commitment.
We work only with the camps, lodges and guides we have stayed in, travelled with, and trust by name. No others.
From the moment you begin planning to long after you return home, our team remains at your service.
Through Ongeri philanthropy, a portion of every safari supports the conservation efforts and community initiatives that keep these landscapes — and the people who call them home — thriving for generations to come.
Every review here is a real one, published on Tripadvisor under the guest's own name. Read more on our Guest Stories page.
Let us craft a journey that stays with you long after you return home.
