We have actively participated in shaping and defining their user experience, handling everything from from logo development through to corporate identity, enquiry and booking forms, guest journey branding throughout the four lodges, brochures, postcards, magazine ads, online and google ads, web design, coding and smartbox integrated solutions.
The Task

Communicating The Safari Collection’s unique collection of luxury lodges and camps in Kenya, as well as their abilities as a ground handler and tailor-made safari specialist tour operator in East Africa.
The Result
A strong, clean, crisp, contemporary website focused on communicating the brand offering and core personality. Information is well organised and relevant with simple navigation and an intuitive user interface. Optimised graphics, valid links and SEO and mobile friendly landing pages were implemented in order to attract and maintain user experience. Availability and booking widgets were integrated, along with conversion tracking codes.
