About Leona Tours

A boutique, female-led safari company crafting journeys across Kenya and beyond since 2022.

Who we are

Our story

Leona Tours & Travel is a boutique, female-led safari company based in Karen, Nairobi. We curate mid-range to luxury journeys across Kenya, East Africa and beyond.

We were founded in 2022 by two friends who had spent years designing trips for some of Kenya's leading travel companies. After a pause for motherhood and a season of loss, we relaunched in 2025 with a clearer purpose.

Today we work with a small, trusted circle of guides, lodges and partners, so every itinerary is personal, well looked after and built around you.
