About us
A Watamu guide, not a faraway agency.
Colombo Safari was born in Watamu, on Kenya's north coast, from a simple idea: letting travellers experience Kenya the way we who live here do — not as a product, but as an encounter.
Our story
It all started by taking Italian friends on holiday in Watamu out exploring: a day in Tsavo, a sunset on Mida Creek, the Gede ruins told while walking through them. Word of mouth did the rest.
Today Colombo Safari runs safaris in Kenya's great parks and excursions along the coast, always by the same rule: small groups, honest timing, real people. No tourist-village convoys.
We speak Italian and English, know every track in Tsavo and every channel of Mida Creek. And above all: when you book with us, you talk to the person who will actually be guiding you.
How we work
Not just another agency. Your guide in Kenya.
Small groups
Just a few guests per vehicle: more room, more sightings, more freedom to stop.
Clear pricing
A written quote before you go — what's in, what's out. No surprises on the day.
Respect for the land
We work with local guides and lodges, and respect the parks and communities that host us.
Safety first
Checked vehicles, insurance, emergency radio, and real knowledge of the terrain.
