About Need a Hug Safaris
Where every journey is a warm embrace of Kenya's natural wonders.
Our Story
Need a Hug Safaris was born from a simple belief: that travel should be more than just sightseeing. It should be an emotional journey that connects you with nature, culture, and yourself.
Founded by passionate Kenyan guides who grew up exploring these magnificent landscapes, we understand the magic that happens when you truly immerse yourself in the wild. From the snow-capped peaks of Mount Kenya to the endless plains of the Maasai Mara, we've spent years discovering the hidden gems that make Kenya extraordinary.
Today, we're proud to share these experiences with travelers from around the world, creating adventures that are as comfortable as they are thrilling. Because sometimes, what you need most is a hug from nature.
