Tropical paradise awaits on Lamu Island where African hospitality combines with pristine beaches and unspoiled underwater worlds.
THE WILDLIFE YOU WILL SEE:
Kenya has it all – the big 5 (lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, buffalo), crocs, hippos, rare giraffe species, and an abundance of antelope including the endemic Mountain Bongo. Kenya forms part of the annual wildebeest migration route with huge herds moving between Tanzania and Kenya
GUEST FEEDBACK:
“What a trip – I am not sure where to start. This is the third time we have used you guys and each memory gets better. Accommodation was amazing – Ngorongoro Crater Lodge was spectacular, Lake Manyara Tree Lodge was another amazing experience, Serengeti Under Canvas too was just a fantastic and different experience, and then Bateleur Camp to cap it off. I was so happy we went to Kenya at the end; Bateleur Camp and the staff were just outstanding.” – Scott
“Just wanted to say thank you for sending us to Angama. This place is so unbelievable I am lost for words – it feels like this is one of the top resorts I have ever been to. Amazing atmosphere and peaceful vibe.” – Kevin
