[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These posts are all super helpful - thank you! Any recommendations for an agent / operator that specializes in Kenya? Friends raved about Green Safaris, but they're not in Kenya ...[/quote]

Travel Beyond is good (I think they have a $10-15K pp minimum to work with them). They do a TON of volume so their pricing is super competitive once you’re within their spend thresholds.

Piper + Heath gets good reviews too though I thought they were kinda abrasive (but they def know their stuff).

Just know with Kenya it’s very different from say a SA or Bots or Zambia safari - even if you’re on a reserve where you can off-road and escape crowds - so talk to your operator / agent more about what you envision for the safari experience and make sure Kenya delivers on that. [/quote]

PP here - Last thing is the operators and agents mostly all know each other / it’s a tight circle (lots of the OG agents for these safaris are kids / grandkids of OG colonists and many of the families are intertwined now via marriages), so beware of that if you start shopping around a lot between agents - you’ll get snuffed out pretty quickly and they usually aren’t too pleased about it.
