Best Destinations for Luxury Safari Trips in Kenya
Combined, these ten Kenya safaris destinations host over 30 different wildlife species and huge varieties of natural wonders. Think elephants, lions, buffaloes, hippos, rhinos, giraffes and more.
However, we recognize that it takes more than just wildlife or a dreamy coastline for a destination to be a perfect luxury safari in Kenya.
And that is why the selected destinations are tranquil, impeccably serviced, and come with top-level accommodation options.
Luxury Safari Destination in Kenya - #1. Masai Mara National Reserve
Lush unwinding grasslands. Scattered acacias. Over 90 different species of mammals. The Mara River. And over 450 bird species. To say the Masai Mara is iconic is a gross understatement.
Spend a luxury safari in Kenya here, and gather lifelong memories on hot-air balloon safaris, game drives, and nature walks. You can also dine in the park’s heart and experience the Mara landscape intimately.
We promise that all these activities are the ultimate adventure and a gateway to hundreds of lions, elephants, and giraffes. You will also see lots of rhinos, buffaloes, impalas, wildebeests, hippos, hyenas, zebras, jackals, wild dogs, and dik-dik, to mention but a few.
Next, we discuss the best Kenya luxury safari lodges in Masai Mara. And did you know that every waking moment spent in Masai Mara luxury lodges is a moment worth remembering?
Here are a few we think you’ll love.
Mahali Mzuri - 5-Star
If you’re looking for the not-sure-what-day-of-the-week-it-is kind of vacation, then Mahali Mzuri is the place to be. This resort sits within the Olare Motorogi Conservancy and is remarkable for its stylish interiors, exceptional views, and contemporary amenities.
And can we take a minute to talk about those 12 tented camps! They are ravishing! From their en suite bathrooms and private viewing decks to their plush beds and floor-to-ceiling windows.
P.S: Ten suites have either king or twin-sized beds, while two have king-sized four-poster beds, accommodating two extra kids.
Sanctuary Olonana - 4-Star
Sit back and let the wildlife come to you at Sanctuary Olonana, a unique Kenya luxury safari lodge nestled in a private area along the Mara River. Every square inch of this place oozes perfection.

You’ll also be pleased to know that the Great Wildebeest Migration happens less than 30 minutes from the lodge’s doorstep. And that the lodge is a recipient of the much-coveted TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence Hall of Fame.
