For travel agents, tour operators & planners
Your Kenya DMC & Safari Ground Handler
Mara Spirit Safaris works as the on-the-ground partner for travel agents, tour operators and corporate planners who sell Kenya. You sell the journey — we run every kilometre of it.
What is a DMC — and why use a local one?
A Destination Management Company (DMC) is a local specialist that handles everything that happens on the ground: vehicles, guides, park permits, camp and lodge bookings, transfers and emergency support.
An overseas agent sells the trip. A Kenya DMC makes it happen — with people in the country who can solve a problem the same day.

Trade FAQs
Do you offer net rates or commission?
Yes. We work with partners on either net rates or commissionable rates, depending on your business model. Terms are agreed individually — request our trade terms using the form on this page.
Can itineraries be white-labelled?
Yes. Proposals and itineraries can be supplied without our branding so you can present them to your clients under your own name.

We aim to send a costed proposal within 24 hours on working days, and faster for simple requests.
