Curious where everything sits? Open the map and explore the area before you choose.
Look at the lodges first, then ask about age rules, family rooms and a pool. Private houses give you the whole place.
Choose a small boutique hotel with a garden. Ask us to add a bush dinner or a surprise.
A private house means your own chef, guide and vehicle. We can manage the sleeping plan for every age.
Bush and mid-range camps give the same wildlife for much less. Green-season rates are the lowest.
We suggest 1 – 2 nights. That is long enough to settle in and make the most of the wildlife without rushing.
All year; June – March is driest. Green-season rates are lower, and the landscape is lusher.
About 90 minutes – 2 hours from Nairobi. We arrange every transfer and flight for you.
Boat trips, cycling and walks among giraffe. A slow start to a safari, and very good for families.
Rates change with the season, the room and the length of stay, so we quote them for your exact dates rather than show a number that may be out of date.
