Through a face to face interaction I can help clear the air around various aspects of your Kenyan travel. These include (but not limited to)

(1) Processes - such as VISAs, Vaccination requirements etc
(2) Travel options - such as road, local flights etc
(3) Safety concerns
(4) Accommodation options and where to stay based on your aspirations for wildlife viewing - Is the main reserve better (or) Mara Triangle?
(5) Food options
(6) Photography tips
(7) Best guides to work with, best time of the year etc
(8) Information on activities other than wildlife viewing
(9) Fancy a stay at conservancies within Mara?
(10) What other national parks/reserves can be done in proximity?

When do you plan to visit Kenya? The time of the year will influence your rates and availability of suggested camps and guides. So this information is key to plan the experience.

How many of you plan to travel? Are there requirements for kids, if so what age would they be during the time of travel?

Do you have specific interest in photography? Are you planning to cover specific species and/or do you have specific photography requirements in mind? Please share them and I can help plan to execute them.

What sort of a budget are you looking at per person? This will be evaluated based on the number of nights you plan to stay.
