Africa Typique is born from a deep passion for East Africa. Founded by expert guides, with over 16 Years field experience, who have spent years walking the bush, tracking the wild, and living alongside the land, we bring you genuine, heartfelt safaris in Kenya and Tanzania. We believe that travel should be more than ticking off “the big five” it should be a cultural journey, a meaningful connection.
About Us
Where Kenya’s Wild Beauty Meets Unforgettable Journeys
Our Story
Africa Typique began as a simple dream shared by a small group of local guides who had spent their lives in the bush, tracking lions at sunrise, listening to elephants move through the savannah at night, and learning the rhythm of the land from elders and conservationists. For years, we guided travelers from around the world, watching them fall in love with East Africa just as we had. But we also saw something missing: safaris that were deeply personal, grounded in real stories, and connected to the people, cultures, and wild spaces that make this region extraordinary. We wanted to create safaris that went beyond scheduled itineraries and generic tours.
We wanted to offer journeys shaped by real experience, local wisdom, and a genuine respect for nature, and so, Africa Typique was born, from the bush, from the community, and from a passion for sharing East Africa in a way that feels honest, intimate, and unforgettable. Today, we continue that mission: crafting tailor-made safaris that reflect the heart of the land we call home.
