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.
