🪶”SPECIALISTS NOT GENERALISTS!”🪶

“It is imperative to ‘know’ where we are sending you!”

I touched down in the breathtaking Olare Orok Conservancy on a site visit, and the adventure began with a warm welcome and a glass of bubbles from the wonderful team at 🥂

Our leisurely drive to camp quickly turned into an unforgettable wildlife encounter. Within just 10 minutes of arriving, out of the corner of the guides eye - a literal glint in his peripheral view - he spotted a young male Cheetah … poised and focused, stalking its prey. 🐆🌿

This is the magic of the Mara: every moment offers the potential for awe-inspiring encounters that many would miss without a trained eye. Each visit reveals new wonders, reinforcing the unique and unpredictable beauty of the Kenyan wilderness.

✨ A Legacy of Adventure with Southern Cross Safaris✨

For as long as I can remember (I’m now 42 - and have now joined Dad in the company) - our incredible drivers have been a constant presence in mine and my sister’s life, they are now doing the same with my children.
These extraordinary individuals are more than just guides; they are the heart and soul of Southern Cross Safaris.

With a deep-rooted knowledge of Kenya, our drivers bring the wild to life like no one else. Some have been with us for over 30 years, and their passion for the land and its creatures shines through every adventure. They are truly the cream of the crop, embodying what it means to be a guide.

It’s not just about the journey; it’s about the stories, the laughter, and the bonds we create along the way. We are so proud to have them as part of our Southern Cross Safaris family, and we can’t wait for you to experience the magic they bring to your safari.

Craving activity as well as luxury ?

A recommended 1st stop when you embark on your Kenyan safari!
🌅

For those who crave a little more action, soar above the breathtaking landscapes of the Mara in a hot air balloon, witnessing the wildlife from a whole new perspective. 🦓 … or hop on a bike and pedal through the wild, feeling the thrill of Africa all around you. 🚴‍♂️

After an action packed day, unwind in style at this unique camp, featuring a stunning swimming pool built on the back of an old military truck—it’s a sight you have to see to believe! 🏊‍♀️🚚

Just perfect!
