About Tayari

Tayari means ready

We are ready to take you to the best of Africa. Tell us where you want to go, and we will plan the rest.

What we do

Safaris, culture, beaches and border crossings

Tayari Africa Tours Consultants is a Pan-African tour operator. Our headquarters are in Nairobi, Kenya, and our client support team in Maryland and Minnesota looks after travellers in the USA.

We plan safaris, cultural, beach and cross-border trips across the continent: from the elephants of Amboseli and the great migration in the Maasai Mara and Serengeti, to the beaches of Zanzibar, the history of Egypt, Victoria Falls and Cape Town.

You get one place to ask questions, one plan to review and one team to call if something changes while you are travelling.

Mission and vision

What we are working towards

Our mission

To make planning a trip to Africa simple, clear and honest, so travellers know what they are getting before they go.

Our vision

To be the first team travellers think of when they want Africa arranged well, and the one they recommend afterwards.

What we arrange

One thing, or the whole trip

Ask us for a single airport transfer or a three-country journey. We arrange it either way.

  • Safari experiences

    Game drives and safari stays arranged around the wildlife and pace you want.

  • Accommodation coordination

    Lodges, camps and hotels matched to your budget and travel style.

  • Airport & local transfers

    Smooth pick-ups and drop-offs so you are never left wondering about the next leg.

  • Transport coordination

    Road and domestic-flight connections coordinated between destinations.

  • Cultural experiences

    Respectful, meaningful time with local communities, food and heritage.

  • Beach holidays

    Coastal escapes on their own or paired with safari.

  • Private & customised trips

    Honeymoons, family trips and private journeys built from scratch.

  • Other travel support

    Questions about timing, logistics or what to pack? We are glad to help.

How it works

You say where. We get you there.

  1. Tell us

    Roughly when, roughly where, and who is coming. A short form or a WhatsApp message is enough to start.

  2. We plan

    We come back with a route, places to stay and a quote that says what is included. You change whatever you like.

  3. You experience

    You travel knowing who meets you and where you go next, with our WhatsApp line open day and night if anything changes.

Why travel with us

We handle the details. You keep the view.

  • Planned for you, not from a brochure.

    We start from your dates, your group and your budget, and build the trip from there.

  • Handled on the ground.

    Stays, drivers, guides and park fees are arranged with providers we work with in each country.

  • Straight answers.

    Every quote says what is included and what is not. If something does not suit the season, we will say so.

  • Easy to change.

    Another night by the river, a beach at the end, a slower pace. We reshape the plan around you.

  • A person on the other end.

    You write to people, not a booking engine, and our WhatsApp line is open day and night while you travel.

The people behind your trip

Real people, at both ends of the journey.

You plan with our team in Kenya, and with client support in the USA if you are travelling from there. The same people stay with you until you are home.
