Kenya: Vegan Safaris in the Land of Giants
Iconic Landscapes. Ethical Travel. Plant-Based Adventure
Welcome to Kenya
Kenya is where the word “safari” began — and it still delivers some of the most legendary wildlife experiences on Earth. From the sweeping plains of the Maasai Mara to the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro, Kenya’s rich biodiversity and deep cultural heritage make it a dream destination for vegan and vegetarian travelers.
At Vegan Safari Africa, we make sure your safari is 100% plant-based, ethical, and unforgettable — without compromising on comfort, wildlife access, or cultural respect.
Why Kenya for Vegan Travelers?
-
Home of the Great Migration
Witness millions of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle crossing the Mara River, closely followed by predators. Kenya’s Maasai Mara is the frontline of one of Earth’s greatest wildlife spectacles. -
Plant-Based Friendly Accommodations
We partner only with lodges and camps that offer high-quality vegan or vegetarian cuisine — no animal products, no cross-contamination, no confusion. -
Rich Culture & Responsible Travel
Meet the Maasai people, explore community-run conservancies, and travel with guides who respect local customs and wildlife alike. -
Diverse Ecosystems
From volcanic lakes and forested highlands to open savannas and dry deserts, Kenya offers incredible variety in a single journey.
Where to Go in Kenya
Maasai Mara
The heart of safari country — expect lion prides, open plains, and the famed river crossings (June–October). Private camps or fly-in lodges available, all with vegan menus arranged in advance.
Amboseli
Iconic views of elephants framed by Mount Kilimanjaro. Amboseli is perfect for photography, slow-paced game drives, and peaceful moments with Africa’s largest land animals.
Laikipia & Lewa
Explore private conservancies with rhinos, Grevy’s zebras, and thriving conservation programs. These are low-density, high-impact areas perfect for ethical safaris and guided walking tours.
Lake Naivasha & Lake Nakuru
Great for bird lovers and those seeking gentle wildlife viewing. Think flamingos, giraffes, and monkeys — all near comfortable, vegan-friendly lodges.
Tsavo & Chyulu Hills
A wilder, red-soil landscape with big herds and fewer crowds. Tsavo is Kenya at its most raw and untamed — and Chyulu Hills offers stunning volcanic views and eco-luxury retreats.
