New Perspectives: Kenya’s Wild Spaces
Some places stay with you not because they are new, but because they reveal themselves in new ways.
The Mara Triangle: Conservation at Ground Level
Perched on a ridge overlooking the Mara Triangle is a rhinoceros sanctuary unlike anything I have encountered in Kenya or anywhere else in Africa. Ancient land and deeply modern conservation come together here in a way that feels both humbling and hopeful.
Tracking rhinoceroses on foot brings the reality of protecting this critically endangered species into sharp focus. There is nothing more immersive than moving through a highly protected sanctuary, just yards from these gentle, prehistoric animals. Watching a young Babylonstoren rhinoceros nuzzled by its mother, or standing alongside fully grown white rhinos in pristine wilderness, is to witness conservation not as a concept, but as lived experience.
Laikipia Highlands: Old Land, New Vantage Points
From the Mara, the journey continued north into Kenya’s Laikipia Highlands, stretching toward the Ethiopian border. The landscape shifts dramatically, becoming almost otherworldly in its scale and diversity.
Volcanic calderas give way to lakes in shades of turquoise, chalk white, and deep red. Vast flocks of flamingos rise into the air in sweeping formations. Helicopter flights weave through mountain ravines before landing on remote peaks for breakfasts that feel suspended in time.
Exploring Laikipia by land and by air reveals familiar African landscapes from entirely new perspectives—layered with cultural encounters and conservation initiatives that deepen the experience.
Seeing a Place Differently
Kenya has a way of meeting you wherever you are. Whether it is your first time or a return to landscapes you thought you already knew, the magic lies in how the experience is shaped.
At TS, the approach is never about repeating a formula. It is about listening closely—to your pace, your curiosities, your sense of wonder—and then quietly reimagining a destination around you. Old places, seen through a more personal lens, begin to feel entirely new.
