Virgin Limited Edition eyes growth as it announces new property

The tented safari camp, already distinguished for its family values, its deep-rooted connection to community and sustainability, while offering an incredible luxury safari experience in one of the greatest biodiversity regions in the world already aligns with the familiar values of the Virgin Limited Edition brand.  It will become the second property in Kenya for the collection giving strength to the portfolio on the Kenya tourism circuit and allowing its guests to combine first-class luxury facilities and world-class safari camps in two very different and equally beautiful areas of Kenya. 

Sir Richard Branson, Founder of the Virgin Group commented “Africa is one of my favourite parts of the world.  Each cornerstone offers something entirely unique, surrounded by rich heritage and culture.  I’m delighted Finch Hattons and all of the incredible wildlife in the Tsavo National Park will join our Virgin family and I can’t wait to visit soon.”

Finch Hattons features 17-luxury tented suites and three decades of safari experience from the Kenyan-based Gehlot family - the owners of Finch Hattons and co-owners of Mahali Mzuri – together with Sir Richard Branson. It will offer future Virgin Limited Edition guests extraordinary experiences within the treasures of Tsavo, not to mention Africa’s only Shetani lava flow and breathtaking views of Mount Kilimanjaro.  

Finch Hattons will become part of the Virgin Limited Edition portfolio from 1st July 2024.  Rates start from $796 per person per night, including accommodation, all meals and drinks, as well as all scheduled activities including game drives, excursion to Shetani lava flow, Oldonyo Larami volcano hike, yoga, nature walks and return airstrip transfers.
