Exploring Kenya solo doesn't mean you'll actually be alone, or that you'll necessarily be paying large single supplement fees that tend to follow solo travelers wherever they go. These trips for solo travelers visit highlights such as Nairobi, Masai Mara, Amboseli National Park, Karen Blixen Coffee Garden & Cottages, and Karen Blixen Camp where you can enjoy exceptional Wildlife Viewing, Village Visits, Wilderness Lodge Exploration, Camping, and Fishing. Join us on a small group tour, private expedition, or small ship cruise and you'll always have a travel partner at your side - your Adventure Life travel planner. Contact us for tips and help traveling solo to Kenya and to get started planning your trip.

Best Lodges and Camps for Solo Travelers

Classic tented camps in the Masai Mara, like Governors' Camp, work well for solo travelers: game drives are usually shared, dining is communal, and the circuit is well established, so logistics stay simple. Karen Blixen Camp, in the Mara North Conservancy, is a good option if you'd rather stay somewhere quieter than the busier lodges near the main reserve. Ask your trip planner about smaller camps with lower overall occupancy if you want even more space to yourself.

Tips for Planning a Solo Kenya Safari

Ask your trip planner whether joining a scheduled small-group departure, rather than booking a private trip, can reduce or waive the single-supplement fee. For a first solo trip, the classic circuit — Masai Mara, Amboseli, Lake Nakuru — is the most straightforward to navigate, with the most infrastructure built around shared game drives and easy logistics.
