Plush Explorer is a Kenyan travel and experiences company helping travellers discover Kenya, Africa and beyond through thoughtfully designed holidays, tours, adventures and golf experiences.
We believe travel should be more than simply moving from one destination to another. It should give you stories to tell, places to remember and experiences that stay with you long after you return home.
Plush Explorer was created with a simple idea: to make it easier for people to discover incredible places and enjoy memorable travel experiences.
Kenya has an extraordinary amount to offer, from the beaches of the Indian Ocean and the wildlife-rich plains of the Maasai Mara to the dramatic landscapes of the Great Rift Valley, vibrant cities, rich cultures and beautiful golf courses.
However, planning a great trip can sometimes feel overwhelming. Where should you go? How many days do you need? Where should you stay? Should you drive or fly? Which activities are actually worth doing? How can you combine safari, beach and golf without spending most of your holiday travelling?
That's where Plush Explorer comes in.
We help turn those questions into practical, enjoyable travel plans built around what you actually want to experience.
Our Story
Plush Explorer grew from a passion for travel, adventure, creativity and discovering new experiences.
As a Kenyan travel brand, we understand the country from a local perspective. We've seen how easily travellers can miss incredible experiences simply because they don't know where to look or how to put the different pieces of a trip together.
A weekend in Naivasha can become much more than a hotel stay. A trip to the Kenyan Coast can become a combination of beaches, Swahili culture, food and marine experiences. A safari can become a story that stays with you for years. A golf trip can become an opportunity to explore an entirely new destination.
We wanted to create a travel brand that brings these experiences together.
That became Plush Explorer.
What We Do
Safari & Wildlife: Kenya is one of the world's great safari destinations, and we help travellers experience its wildlife and landscapes in a meaningful way. From the Maasai Mara and Amboseli to Samburu and other iconic destinations, our safari experiences can be combined with comfortable accommodation, transfers, game drives and other activities depending on your itinerary.
Beach Holidays: Kenya's Indian Ocean coastline offers some of the country's most beautiful escapes. We help travellers discover destinations such as Diani, Mombasa, Watamu and Malindi, combining beautiful beaches with coastal culture, food, marine experiences and opportunities to simply slow down and enjoy the ocean.
Adventure & Experiences: We believe destinations are best experienced rather than simply visited. That could mean taking a boat ride on Lake Naivasha, cycling through Hell's Gate, exploring a new city, enjoying a road trip through the Rift Valley, experiencing local culture or discovering places beyond the traditional tourist route.
Golf Travel: Golf is one of the experiences that makes Plush Explorer different. We combine golf with travel, giving golfers the opportunity to discover new destinations while enjoying some of the most interesting courses in Kenya and beyond. A golf trip doesn't have to be only about golf. It can also include safari, sightseeing, beach experiences, great food and time with friends.
Group Travel: Travelling with friends, family, colleagues, a golf group or an organisation can create some of the best memories. We help organise group experiences around the needs of the people travelling, rather than forcing every group into the same standard itinerary.
More Than a Travel Website
Plush Explorer is designed to be more than a website where travellers read about destinations.
We are building a travel discovery and listing platform where travellers can discover businesses and experiences while travel businesses get an opportunity to showcase what they offer to a wider audience.
Our platform brings together two sides of the travel industry:
Travellers looking for experiences.
and
Businesses offering those experiences.
This creates an ecosystem where discovering a destination and finding the services needed to enjoy it can happen in one place.
Create Your Travel Listing
Businesses can create listings that provide travellers with useful information about their services. Depending on the listing type, this can include your business name, description, location, contact information, website, social media profiles, photographs, services, travel packages, prices, amenities, special offers and booking information.
A well-presented listing gives potential customers a clearer understanding of your business and helps them decide whether your service is right for their trip.
