Nairobi (Kenya) accommodation

When visiting Nairobi, we recommend staying at the Tented Camp. You have to book early, since the space is limited. The camp is located within the Nairobi National Park and offers luxurious tents to its visitors. Every tent is equipped with a double bed and a private bathroom, which includes a flush toilet, a shower (consisting of a bag full of heated water, manually hoisted for a quick shower) and a basin. Masai warriors accompany the guests, as guards, when they walk among the tents; since lions are known to walk through the camp on occasion. A game drive is available to the guests on which the sighting of various animals is guaranteed.
