Discover what makes Kenya unforgettable





Kenya is the ultimate safari destination, home to the iconic Big Five: lions, elephants, leopards, buffalos, and rhinos. Experience the thrill of seeing these majestic creatures in their natural habitat at world-renowned parks like Maasai Mara and Amboseli. Whether you're on a guided tour or a hot air balloon ride at sunrise, the breathtaking landscapes and abundant wildlife create unforgettable moments that will have you buzzing with excitement.


Dive into Kenya's rich cultural heritage by visiting local communities like the Maasai and Samburu. Engage with vibrant traditions, from colorful beadwork to traditional dances. Participate in a cultural exchange, where you can learn about their way of life and enjoy authentic cuisine. This immersive experience not only enriches your understanding of Kenya but also connects you to the heart and soul of its people.


Experience the breathtaking beauty of a Maasai Mara sunset, where the sky transforms into a canvas of golden clouds. Picture yourself perched atop a scenic hill, sipping a refreshing drink as you watch lone trees silhouette against the vibrant horizon. Below, graceful antelope graze in the expansive savannah grasslands, framed by the rolling hills of the Great Rift Valley. This magical moment is not just a feast for the eyes; it's a memory that will linger in your heart long after you leave Kenya.


Imagine sinking into plush sun loungers under swaying palm trees, with a gentle ocean breeze brushing against your skin on Diani Beach. This idyllic stretch of sandy shoreline is framed by a backdrop of a beautifully cloudy sky, creating a serene atmosphere perfect for relaxation. Whether you’re enjoying a good book or sipping a cool drink, the sound of the waves lapping the shore invites you to unwind and soak in the peaceful vibes of this coastal paradise in Kenya.

13-day couple trip to Morocco
“What an amazing experience. My husband and I were looking to visit Morocco and were not keen on a self-drive (which I still do not recommend) and also did not want to join in a group. We did have the option of taking a private tour with a South African operator but decided on Tilila Travel through Rough Guides. It turned out to be the best choice. They helped us with the planning of the route, suggested sites and activities, arranged all the local guides, accommodation etc, and even arranged for a Moroccan sim card (which worked better than the E-sim in rural areas). Always very quick to respond to our request and help with the visa applications. Our personal guide Tawfiq met us at the airport, and was on call through the trip, for pickups and transfers, meeting with guides, suggesting restaurants, finding banks, warning us of scams – you name it. We were so pampered. But even better, from the start we told Tawfiq that we wanted to have an authentic experience, and that is what he gave us: - a meal with a Berber farmer and his family; cooking classes in a Marrakech home; a picnic Moroccan style among the Rabat locals, and so many tales and insights. He went beyond the itinerary so that we could experience the true Moroccan culture, away from the more touristic spots. Tawfiq treated us like royalty, and we felt safe in his charge . We will definitely use Tillia and Rough Guides again.”

15-day couple trip to Morocco
“Mohamed gave us personal, prompt, polite, and extremely solicitous attention to all of our requests and travel needs. They arranged beautiful lodging, sensible schedules, and excellent local tour services. A great outfit to deal with. Our driver Tawfiq was a hoot. We spent many hours on the road in conversation about Morocco and life on both sides of the ocean. He had boundless energy and enthusiasm, and always bent over backwards with great local advice for touring, eating, and sightseeing. We all laughed and sang a lot on our long travel days, while we listened to his playlists of Moroccan folk and dance music. He was on call for us in the evenings, and drove us to restaurants and entertainment, taking all of the worry out of navigating the cities. Tawfiq was more like a travel buddy than a driver, and infinitely better than Uber!”

10-day family trip to Morocco
“We had a great trip. The communication was clear and well organised. Walid was a great driver and guide and the other local guides organised for us were excellent and made the trip richer and fun. We would highly recommend using rough guides for a trip to Morocco. The local company was excellent and meant our trip was both fascinating and smooth.”

10-day family trip to Morocco
“We had a fantastic experience from planning through the end of the tour. Mohamed is an expert and he worked with us to learn about our preferences and expectations, then he prepared the itinerary. He checked in with us during the journey and we felt that he was truly looking after us. Our driver, Abdel, was kind and friendly. He was flexible and able to make adjustments based on our (ever changing) interests. Abdel was a great guide and support. The local guides in Fez and Marrakech were very knowledgeable and great communicators. We felt very well taken care of. This was a family holiday (including two college age boys), and we all were very happy. This holiday exceeded expectations and it would not have been possible without Tilila Travel.”
