Laikipia family house
An exclusive-use house with a pool, a guide, and rhino on the plain.
Kenya
Kenya family safari house
One house, one guide, a pool, and children who will not be bored.
A seven-night exclusive-use safari house in Kenya for one family, with its own guide and vehicle, walking, riding, and a pool between game drives.
Families do better in one place with their own staff than moving between camps. The house is yours for the week; the guide works around the children's rhythm; the pool fills the hot hours.
Older children walk and ride with a guide. Younger ones learn to track in the garden. Adults get a vehicle that leaves when they are ready.

How many does the house sleep?
Comfortably eight to twelve across a main house and cottages, with staff, a private guide and a vehicle for the party's exclusive use.

Bush walks with the guide, tracking lessons, the pool, and time with the house team. Afternoons are deliberately unscheduled.
