Camping Tours in Kenya

Full participation is required when on our camping tours in Kenya and you will be expected to help out with meal preparation as well as putting your tent up and taking it down. As long as you have a sense of adventure and do not mind getting involved with your fellow travellers then Kenya camping tours can be fun even if you are 60.

About Camping Safaris Kenya

On our budget camping safaris in Kenya you will spend most, if not all, nights in a 2-man tent. All tents are waterproof, have sewn-in mosquito netting, built-in ground sheets and flysheets (the second layer that keeps the water out, and you dry). Campsites vary. One night you will find yourself in an oasis of lush green grass with steaming hot showers, a crystal-clear swimming pool and a bar serving ice-cold drinks. The next day you may find yourself in the middle of Kenya with the only facility being a long-drop toilet (which is no more than just a hole in the ground).

Kenya Camping Safaris

Never been camping on safari in Kenya? For those of you who are new to camping don’t worry. All tents are easy to erect and your friendly crew will give a demonstration and lend a helping hand in the beginning of your camping safari in Kenya.
