Kenya's largest park: red elephants, ancient baobabs, lava flows and a deep, wild quiet.

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.
Choose a tented camp with a private deck. Ask us to add a bush dinner or a surprise.
Ask about interconnecting rooms or booking a whole camp. 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 2 – 3 nights. That is long enough to settle in and make the most of the wildlife without rushing.
June – October, January – February. Green-season rates are lower, and the landscape is lusher.
Short flight or 5 – 6 hour drive from Nairobi. We arrange every transfer and flight for you.
Lodges overlook waterholes where elephant come to drink. Expect far fewer vehicles and a rawer feel than the Mara.
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season, the room and the length of stay, so we quote them for your exact dates rather than show a number that may be out of date.
