Camping safaris (Budget)
 A
camping safari staying in small private mobile camps is one of the best
ways to experience Kenya's natural attractions. The safari has been designed
to include a variety of habitat so that the widest diversity of wildlife
can be seen. The camps are sited in private conservancies' camp sites so
that walking and night drives may be taken but are also conveniently located
for easy access to Amboseli and Nakuru national parks and the Maasai Mara.
- Transport
is by tour vans {four-wheel-drive Toyota Land cruiser with roof hatches
available on request}.
Your driver-guide is a wildlife and nature expert and member of the
Kenya Professional Safari Guides Association.
- Equipment
is carried in a trailer behind the vehicle or in a separate van. {When
in camp the trailer is removed and game drives are done in the vehicle.}
This are optional on request.
- Tents
are heavy-duty canvas/ dome tents for 2 persons. Clients bring their
own sleeping bag and a towel, but all other camp furniture and equipment
is provided.
- Camps
are set up on our own exclusive camp sites.
- At
each camp site we have staffs who does the work like washing up, heating
water for showers, doing the cooking and serving the food, but clients
also help put up and take down their tents.
- Our
experienced safari cook travels with the safari. Food is of the same
quality as in a luxury camp and is included in the price, (not bought
through a 'kitty' like some other camping safaris).
- Drinks
other than mineral water are not included, but a stop is made en route
to each camp to enable you to buy wine, beer or soft drinks as required.
that not withstanding we will provide a half litre mineral water per
