Welcome to the Kenya Golf Safari Tour—a journey that has been put together as a special edition for golfers who are ready for the experience of a lifetime.

My family hails from this vibrant land, and it’s with great pride that I invite you to join me for a tour that promises to impress even the most seasoned of traveller.

This adventure goes beyond the ordinary. As we tread the tees alongside zebras and maybe an elephant or two, you’ll experience the magic of golf in Kenya—not just playing the sport, but living it, with every step taken amidst breathtaking landscapes. Our caddies will be at hand, carrying your equipment whilst also providing helpful advice, so you can walk the courses with ease.

We’ve secured accommodation during one of the busiest times of year, and a very special time of year. To witness one of the world’s greatest spectacles—the Great Migration. We hope to even catch a dramatic river crossing, a truly marvelous sight.

Our journey doesn’t just keep to the ground; for your comfourt, we’ve included air travel from Nairobi to Masai Mara and on to Vipingo Ridge. Vipingo Ridge isn’t only one of Africa’s top golf courses but also one of its most unique—where else might a giraffe curiously watch on as you putt?

We look forward to welcoming you to this extraordinary fusion of culture, wildlife, and golf. If you have any questions or need further information, feel free to call me anytime. Let’s make unforgettable memories together on the Kenya Golf Safari Tour.
