“The Kenya Derby is far more than a horse race; it’s a tribute to heritage, passion and grace,” said the company’s head of marketing, Ian Victor.

“We believe luxury lives in the creation of moments you’ll never forget. Giving the best dressed winners stays at Olkupelia Mara and Mutara Camp was our way of recognising elegance. We were pleased to share this day with our partners.”

The company said it continues to design travel experiences across Kenya and beyond.
