Wild Wonders was founded in the Pinto family home, close to the Kenyan coffee plantation nestled at the base of the Ngong Hills—a setting that inspired Baroness Karen Blixen to write her timeless masterpiece *Out of Africa* under her famous pen name, Isak Dinesen
Kenya, the only nation in the world named after a mountain, is also the birthplace of the modern safari. Its 54 national parks and game reserves—both public and private—along with its exceptional lodges and camps, play a crucial role in protecting and sustaining the country’s remarkable wildlife, which includes 25,000 species and 390 different mammals, all roaming freely across its landscapes.
