Private safari journeys across Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda and Uganda — every vehicle, every guide, every route, yours alone.
There is a particular stillness that descends just before Africa shows you something extraordinary. A pause in the wind. A held breath in the long grass. Then, movement. The slow swing of an elephant’s trunk against a Kilimanjaro sky. The flash of a leopard’s tail slipping into shadow at the Maasai Mara’s edge. The moment is yours alone, and you understand, viscerally, why you came.
Ayal Tours and Travel was founded on one conviction: a Kenya or Tanzania safari is not a holiday — it is a transformation. We specialise exclusively in two of the world’s great wildlife destinations, crafting private, unhurried journeys for international travellers who have stopped settling for ordinary. No shared vehicles. No catalogue itineraries. No compromises.
Whether you are planning your first Kenya safari, watching the Maasai Mara’s famous predators move at first light, or your return to the Serengeti’s impossible horizons, we begin with your vision and build everything around it. Learn how we work →

“Our Kenya safari with Ayal was everything we had dreamed of and nothing we could have planned ourselves. The Maasai Mara at sunrise, with no other vehicles in sight — that image will stay with us for the rest of our lives. An operator who genuinely cares about the experience.”
“We have travelled across Africa with several operators over the years. This Kenya and Tanzania safari was different — more personal, more knowledgeable, more attentive to what we actually wanted. Every detail had been considered before we even arrived. We will not travel to East Africa with anyone else.”
“The Serengeti is extraordinary on its own terms. Ayal made our Tanzania safari feel as though it had been arranged just for us. I have searched for other words and found none. Simply: go. And go with them.”
However you picture the days ahead — a family scattered across an open vehicle, a proposal timed to a particular sunset, a week given wholly to photography — there is a shape of safari built for it.

ExploreAcross four countries, East Africa holds some of the most storied wildlife terrain on the planet. Every private safari we design moves at your pace alone, through the Maasai Mara, the Serengeti, Volcanoes National Park, and Bwindi, with nothing shared and nothing fixed.
We do not try to cover every corner of Africa. Our expertise is concentrated — Kenya and Tanzania, studied carefully over years on the ground in both countries. This focus means better camp selection, better seasonal timing, better guiding, and a depth of local knowledge that broad operators simply cannot match.
No packaged Kenya or Tanzania safari leaves our hands unchanged. Every itinerary begins with understanding your vision — your pace, your interests, whether you have been before, the experiences that matter most. We build something entirely your own. There are no shared vehicles and nothing off a shelf.
From your first enquiry about a Kenya or Tanzania safari to the moment you land home, you have a dedicated specialist who knows your journey, anticipates what you need, and is reachable whenever you need them. Safari planning should feel as good as the trip itself.
Far from any town, the dark here has weight. Guests often say the same thing on their first night at camp — that they had forgotten how many stars there were to forget. We keep the fires low and the conversation slow, because some evenings ask nothing of you except to look up.
Tell us your vision for a Kenya or Tanzania safari — your travel dates, the pace you prefer, the experiences you have always wanted. We will listen carefully, share what we know, and design something you will spend years telling people about. No cost, no obligation.
