The brief
Send it here
The structured fields get us the frame — dates, party, budget. The message box is where the brief lives, and it is what makes the first draft worth reading.
It goes to our partner agency in Kenya, who build and price the itinerary and look after you on the ground.
- A route derived from what you wrote, not a circuit with substitutions
- Named camps, with the land each one sits on
- An honest recommendation of a standard route, if that is genuinely better
- No deposit to see a plan, and no obligation at any point
Who answers
Nomad Africa, our partner travel agency in Nairobi, builds and prices every itinerary we send. You deal with one team, on the ground, for the whole trip.
Founded in 2017 as East Africa’s only dedicated travel magazine, Nomad still publishes — so the people planning your trip are the ones who write about these places for a living.
