Heritage Hotels - Kenya

The Heritage Group is one of Africa’s most established and innovative ‘safari names’. Although the company has been in the business for over 20 years, its pioneering approach has helped to set standards for the entire industry.

While Heritage’s Intrepids camps (Mara and Samburu) have long been synonymous with Kenya’s best flying safaris, its Adventurers’ Club has become the continent’s most celebrated children’s club, while its flagship Voyager Beach Resort has become one of the most popular beach hotels in the Africa.

Heritage’s Kenyan portfolio comprises seven properties under three distinct brands, offering a unique chance for discerning repeat guests to ‘climb the brands’. The Voyager brand offers some of the most exciting, high-value ‘beach and bush’ holidays in Africa. After the endless watersports and family activities of Voyager Beach Resort, guests can soak up the wilder atmosphere of Tsavo National Park, home to the romantic Voyager Safari Camp.

The Mara is also home to Heritage’s most famous camp, Mara Intrepids, which is justly famous for its location, unrivalled game viewing, expert guiding, and newly refurbished luxurious riverside tents. Its sister camp, Samburu Intrepids, also just refurbished in 2011, offers similar standards of ‘bush luxury’ deep in Kenya’s northern deserts, home to rare antelope and large elephant herds.

Intrepids visitors can now combine their wilderness safari with a more modern adventure at the Great Rift Valley Lodge and Golf Resort – a beautiful lodge and leisure complex west of Nairobi, which boasts one of the most spectacular golf courses in the southern hemisphere. Guests climbing the Heritage brands will eventually find themselves in the luxurious surroundings of Mara Explorer, where the 10 secluded open-air tents, exotic furnishings and discreet staff have earned the camp accolades as the Mara’s most luxurious retreat. The camp’s sister, Kipungani Explorer, offers a secluded step back in time and a unique ecotourism experience on the mystical Arabian island of Lamu.
