Who we are

A travel company built by people who move things

Kay-din began in air ticketing, where a missed connection is not an inconvenience but a person stranded at an airport at midnight. That is where the discipline comes from. Two decades later we run family safaris and NGO delegations from the same office, on the same standards: confirm before you promise, answer the phone, and carry the logistics so the traveller does not have to think about them.

Motto Your plans, our responsibility.

One team

Two traditions, one standard of care

Holidays and boardrooms ask different questions. We staff and plan for both — and we say which one you are getting.

Register 01

Leisure & family safaris

Public itineraries, per-person pricing and honest inclusions — the kind of transparency that makes a trip easy to say yes to. Day-by-day plans you can read without a follow-up call.

  • Published itineraries with day-by-day detail
  • Indicative per-person pricing, no hidden extras
  • Family pacing: rest days built in, not added later
See safari packages
Register 02

Corporate, events & MICE

Accountable budgets, delegate logistics and on-site coordination for conferences, retreats and school trips. Quoted against a brief, with a named consultant and a response time.

  • Written quotes against your brief and budget line
  • Delegate manifests, rooming lists and transfers
  • One accountable contact from quote to invoice

What we handle

Eight services, one accountability

Every one of these is quoted and run by the same team. No handoffs to a third party you have never met.

The home ground

Four Africas, one doorstep

Read left to right and this is a route: savanna, highlands, rift, coast. Most Kenyan itineraries are some part of that line. Everything beyond it — the Gulf, Asia, Europe, the Indian Ocean — lives on the destinations page.

Where we send people

Turn the planet, and the business makes sense

Nine of the places we sell are within a short hop of Nairobi, which is the knot on the left of the sphere. The other ten are spread from the Gulf to the Pacific — and the further you turn, the longer the trip and the more lead time the paperwork needs.

  • Nineteen places
  • Eleven countries
  • Departing Nairobi
See them photographed, one by one
Land is drawn as a lattice of real coastlines at 1:110 m — Natural Earth, public domain — sampled on the sphere and lit as a physical object. Positions are plotted from real coordinates. Read it as an instrument, not as a chart: no scale bar, no borders, no navigational claim. The furthest place we book is 7,455 km from Nairobi in a straight line. Still on this page — turn it on the atlas, where every place below it is listed.
Beyond the home ground

Ten of the nineteen are not in Kenya

The Gulf, Asia, Europe, Southern and North African coasts, and the Indian Ocean. These are eight of them, and the whole catalogue — with the scenery, the seasons and an honest line on each — is one page away.
