A different route. The same spirit.

Every safari, a new story.

We travel around Kenya, following a new itinerary on every safari. National parks, private reserves and encounters with local people bring us close to the country’s wildlife and culture. Music connects it all.

01 / Wildlife & landscapes

Kenya,
wide open.

We explore national parks and private reserves, making time for the animals, the landscapes and the unexpected moments along the way.

The places change with each journey. The feeling of seeing wildlife in its own world stays with you.

02 / Music & culture

Meet through
music.

We play with local musicians, listen to their songs and share our own. A rhythm, a chorus, a ukulele passed from one pair of hands to another: simple ways to connect.

These encounters are part of discovering Kenya’s culture, with time to listen, join in and enjoy being together.

A shared song create connections.

03 / Schools & shared songs

Back to school.
Back to playing.

We return to schools where students received ukuleles during earlier safaris. We spend time with them, bring out the instruments and play together again.

Each visit continues a connection that began on a previous journey, through the Kenya Ukulele Project.
