It began with a feeling

Simba Paka Safaris began with one clear belief: your trip should be built around how you want to feel, not around fixed packages.

Since then, we've grown into trusted curators of tailor-made East Africa journeys with obsessive attention to detail.

Travelers exploring East African landscape

Unique, different, and daring

We strip away the obvious to uncover deeper experiences, replacing checklists with moments that feel personal and unexpected.

Our team blends local expertise with careful logistics to create adventurous trips that still feel effortless to travel.

Community-focused travel experience

Regenerative travel

We believe travel should leave a lasting positive impact for guests, guides, local communities and the places we explore.

By working with trusted local partners and responsible camps, we help protect wildlife, culture and livelihoods.
