Signature Experiences

Helicopter Over the Serengeti

Soar above the endless golden plains, where the heartbeat of Africa unfolds beneath you. Watch in awe as herds of wildebeests and zebras sweep across the land in perfect harmony, a living river of movement and instinct. Witness the Great Migration from a perspective few will ever know — high above it all, where the only sounds are the rhythmic thrum of helicopter blades and the distant call of wild creatures below. No crowds. No fences. No distractions. Just you, the open sky, and the raw, untamed spirit of the Serengeti laid out before you like a living masterpiece.

Luxury Tented Safari

Sleep beneath a canopy of stars in meticulously crafted tented camps, where timeless adventure meets refined elegance. These are no ordinary tents — they are sanctuaries of comfort nestled deep within the African wilderness. Wake to the gentle rustling of trees and the distant trumpet of elephants at dawn. Step outside to golden sunrises, warm coffee in hand, as wildlife roams just beyond your canvas walls. Every detail is thoughtfully arranged — from plush bedding to attentive service — delivering a safari experience that is intimate, luxurious, and deeply connected.

Oceanfront Private Villas

Nestled over shimmering turquoise waters, our private villas offer the ultimate escape into serenity and indulgence. Greet each sunrise with panoramic ocean views stretching endlessly to the horizon, as the gentle lapping of waves becomes your morning soundtrack. Indulge in barefoot luxury — where every step is comfort, every corner tranquility. Bask in your private plunge pool, enjoy world-class amenities, and let time slow down in your secluded paradise. Each villa is thoughtfully designed for complete relaxation, offering total privacy, personalized service.

Crafting Timeless Safaris Since 1946

Experience Africa the way it was meant to be — wild, personal, and unforgettable.

At Ker & Downey Safaris, we don’t just organize journeys—we create personal legacies.

Safari means “journey” in Swahili — and this will be one to remember.

More Than a Safari — A Journey of the Soul

Imagine hearing the roar of a lion under a starlit sky, watching a cheetah stalk silently across golden grasslands, or sharing a riverside lunch as elephants pass by. From thrilling game drives to soul-stirring hikes in Africa’s most remote corners, our safaris are about more than wildlife — they’re about wonder, discovery, and connection.

Whether you're a seasoned traveler or on your first African adventure, we invite you to experience something truly unique — a safari made just for you.
