Nature Travel in Kenya

Our Clients' Profile

We would not want to stereotype our clients and we respect that individuals have different personalities but over the many years of organizing walking vacations, bird watching tours and unique guided tours, we can convincingly say that our clients stand out and this gives us a fairly good idea about them long before they arrive in Kenya.

And here is their profile:

They are men and women of all ages, who are active to their ability, love outdoors and are downright particular about comfort, safety, perfect ground logistics and itineraries that are carefully designed.

Many are professionals while others are retired but they are all widely traveled, mainly on vacations with an ecotourism theme.

While wildlife viewing is important to them (and we make sure they see a lot), they want a responsible approach to wildlife viewing in safari itineraries that are not restricted to "morning and afternoon game drives". The lion surrounded by 20 minibuses is a no-no to them.

They are not out to visit all the Kenyan parks, they prefer a slowed down program that allows them to enjoy selected parks with enough time to explore them thoroughly and be away from mass tourism.

They have budgets to mind but they are not necessarily looking for the cheapest deal. They want value for their money and would spot a marketing gimmick from a mile.

Physically, there are very few who are athletes and they are not out for extreme & adrenalin activities (but inevitably a rush will come when a giraffe is right ahead in your walking path or for a birder to get a clear view of the endemic Great Blue Turaco in the Kakamega Forest. They are nature travelers with average fitness but enjoy walking knowing that distances are flexible to suit their abilities.

Some ask us for custom safaris while others prefer to join like-minded eco travelers in small group safaris.

If you see yourself in the above description, we are sure that it is comforting to know that Ontdek, as your Kenya safari operator, already connects with you and we are at hand to organize your safari to Kenya. Kindly contact us for a custom tour.
