Mobile camping safaris in Kenya

A camping safari staying in small, private mobile-camps, is one of the best ways to experience Kenya's natural attractions.
Get off the tourist trail and experience the real Africa !
Game drives are in 4x4 safari vehicles and accommodation in small but comfortable dome tents.
The camps are sited in private conservancies (off the main tourist routes) so that game walks and night game drives are possible. Our sites are also located conveniently close to some of the best game-viewing areas in Kenya - Amboseli and the Masai Mara game reserves.

camping safari has been designed to offer the same high quality wildlife safari
experience provided by the top-end safari camps, with 4x4 game viewing escorted
by top class guides and in exclusive wildlife conservancies away from the
tourist minibuses, but at a hugely reduced price by staying in small basic
mobile camps, “real camping” instead of the luxury accommodation of the expensive
up-market tented lodges.

Mobile Camps are sited in private conservancies with a wealth of wildlife and where
you can go on walks with Maasai guides and take night drives but they are also
conveniently located for easy access to Amboseli National Park and the Maasai

For those for whom the wildlife safari experience is more important than the accommodation, and who are prepared to sleep in small tents in sleeping bags on a mattress on the floor with an element of “roughing it”, this gives an opportunity for an exceptional and exclusive wildlife experience with high quality guiding but at a fraction of the price.
