Virgin Limited Edition has added Finch Hattons Luxury Safari Camp in Kenya to its collection of retreats worldwide, effective from July 1.

Situated within Tsavo West National Park, the camp offers 17 luxurious tented suites. It is Virgin Limited Edition's ninth property and its fifth presence in Africa. With Mahali Mzuri, it is Virgin’s second property in Kenya.

At Tsavo guests will see the Shetani lava flow and breath-taking views of Mount Kilimanjaro. The camp offers three decades of safari expertise from the Kenyan-based Gehlot family. In collaboration with Richard Branson, the Gehlot family co-owns Virgin Limited Edition's other Kenyan property, Mahali Mzuri.

Branson, Virgin Group Founder, said: "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."

Leena Gehlot, Managing Partner of Finch Hattons, commented: “Finch Hattons is a deeply-rooted part of our entire family and very much at the heart of our family group of businesses, KG Group. For more than five generations our family have had firm roots in Kenya and we are incredibly proud of our very special safari camp. Bringing Finch Hattons into the portfolio of such a global brand is a huge leap forward for us and we are incredibly excited to showcase Finch Hattons to the wider world, together with Virgin Limited Edition.

“We could not have asked for a better brand who share the same values as us. Just as we do, Virgin Limited Edition ensures people, community, culture and sustainability are at the very heart of their business. Our team look forward to sharing their local wisdom, culture and our beautiful luxury tented safari camp to continue creating the incredible individual experiences a Virgin Limited Edition property is renowned for.”
