    is a very nice place to stay.Nice apartements ,very comfortable beds,a small place: only 9 apartements, friendly and tranquil atmosphere. The staff is wonderful.

    Quite big appartements,only 9 in total -around a very nice pool. very relaxed atmosphere,and with a bar /restaurant! The Chef makes exellent food.
    This is the perfect place for people not wanting big Hotels with noisy tourist entertainment in the evenings. This is a quiet place for guests to relax , and have a wonderful time.

    Samburu National Reserve, at the riverside
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • In Samburu National Reserve we camped two times at the northbank of the Ewaso Nyiro River.

    The first night we stayed at the campsite near Archers Post not far from the entrance of the reserve, so we could enter early in the morning for a first game-drive. The Samburu people of the compound nearby guarded the camp.

    The second night we stayed at the campsite near Samburu Lodge within the Reserve. Here were a lot of monkeys stealing our bread and also many elephants around. So we hired a guard (500 shilling) to look after our tents and food.

    The Samburu lodge itself was very expensive ($ 200 a room). We had a (six course) dinner there for $25. After dinner a guard equipped with gun and flashlamp brought us back to the campsite along the narrow bushpaths.

    The campsites are very beautifully located with the wildlife all around. The facilities are very basic. There is a water tap. The toilets are just a hole in the ground.

    Kembu Campsite: Djoro, campsite at a farmhouse
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Not far from Nakuru we stayed at the campsite Kembu, meaning cameleon in Swahili. It's a great campsite in a lovely garden neaar a farmhouse.You can camp at the lawn, but also rent a treehouse, a room in the farmhouse or one of the two bandas!

    There is an internet connection at the farmhouse, which you can use, though itīs a bit expensive.

    The campsite has clean toilets and hot showers.There is a cosy bar, where you can order your meals and bring your laundry. The campsite also arranges gamedrives to the Lake Nakuru National Park.

    Amboseri Lodge: at the bar...no BGM
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Amboseri Lodge has a bar. You will have very long evenings while game safari. I spent almost every evening at the bar if the nest of the night has one.
    Had nice chat with safari guides or bar tenders with Tusker beer or rum based cocktails.

    There was no BGM but good laughs inside and whispers of wild outside.

    Amboseri Lodge: at dawn, good atmosphere
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • You will have no time to snooze in the morning because safari tour of the day starts very early. So go to the lounge. A strong coffee and a little cool morning breeze or sight of the widerness with wild animals strolling far away will awaken you.

    Amboseli Park 'Banda': Time for Some Housecleaning!

    We were a bit surprised by the state of the kitchen in our 'Banda' at Amboseli ! Obviously the living was going to be very 'rustic'. With our box of food supplies picked up in Nairobi, we managed to cook up our meals on the old stove, never mind what it looked like! Hey, the kids look happy don't they?

    After leaving Lake Naivasha, and stopping at the Nakuru National Park, we continued our drive into the mountains of the Aberdere Range, ending up in the town of Molo (about half-way between Nakuru and the next town of Kisumu). We had booked ourselves into the pretty Highlands Hotel, and quite enjoyed our ground-floor room with access to the outside (see my 'Nightlife' tip for an outside view of the hotel).

    At these higher elevations, the room came equipped with both a fireplace and one of the hotel staff who made his rounds getting the various fireplaces lit up for the evenings!

    A check of our bathroom revealed a mouse-like creature of some sort happily snoring away on one of our towels, a very cozy spot indeed (2nd photo). We just left the animal alone, since it did not seem to be causing any harm!

    Yare Safaris Maralal LodgeType: Maralal, do you prefer a banda?
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • After two nights camping in the bush, we prefered a banda. They were almost not more expensive than camping. The bandas have a private shower & toilet, electricity & running water and a verandah.
    The bandas are situated in the garden near the bar and terrace.

    In the bar you can find a lot of pictures of the annual Camel Derby, starting at the Yale Lodge. We did our own amateur camel race.
    For pictures and more about it have a look at my sporttips and travelogue.
