Game drives in the Nairobi National Park

Your day in Nairobi Tented Camp starts with a freshly brewed hot drink bought to your tent before setting off for that famous safari tradition – an early morning game drive. Be lucky enough to catch the first rays of early morning sun as they burn off the nightly dusting of dew and stir the plains game gently to life.

After a morning filled with sightings of giraffe, buffalo, zebra, eland, impala and other antelopes, and an excellent chance of seeing rhino (both black rhino and white rhino are present in the park) as well as lion and if you very lucky, the elusive leopard, you return to camp for more warming cups of coffee, freshly baked breads and a hearty cooked breakfast.

All meals are carefully crafted to complement bush living without sacrificing on quality and you can relax after your three-course lunch in a swaying hammock under the shade of an olive tree.

When booked on our safari package you can substitute a game drive for a visit to the Elephant orphanage. (Must be Pre-booked and is subject to availability)

As the day cools and the sun starts its journey West it will be time for another game drive – a chance to catch that evasive moment where a lion might decide it’s time to hunt. Return to camp to drinks and stories around the campfire, before dinner under the vast African starlit sky and ultimately retire to bed.

Mess Tent/Out door dining

The meals at Nairobi Tented Camp are crafted to complement the authenticity of the safari experience. All meals are served on a set menu basis, with warming hearty breakfast in the morning, light invigorating lunches served under the shade of an olive tree and dinners of soufflés and tender beef fillet served under the star filled sky. Everything at Nairobi Tented Camp is homemade and cooked with special care and attention. If you have any special dietary requirements please let us know at the time of booking. Ice cold drinks are available from the fully stocked bar in the central mess tent.

One of the earliest national park lodges in Kenya, our Tsavo West Safari Lodge includes 56 guest rooms including five suites that feature remarkably large living areas, ranging from our Standard Rooms to Deluxe Suites and the resplendent Kilaguni Suite. Greet the morning with a bush breakfast or sip traditional sundowner cocktails at Lion Rock. Relax on the garden sundeck by our swimming pool. Savour seasonal, locally sourced cuisine in the dining room overlooking the water hole. Unwind in a day bed at the stone-built bar, sipping a perfectly mixed drink while taking in marvelous views of the Chyulu Hills. Allow us to arrange for unforgettable safari experiences such as a game drive into Tsavo West National Park, a soothing aromatic massage, or an outing to see the hippos and aquatic life of Mzima Springs.

Surrender to the wild, ancient allure of Tsavo West, the land of lions and lava.

Active Water Hole Credit: Serena Hotels Adjacent to the main building while you wine and dine enjoy the view of the water hole where a spectacular wide range of wildlife stop by to quench their thirst.

Lion Rock Breakfast Credit: Serena Hotels Not many experiences are more memorable, or as typically Kenyan, as breakfast on the “Lion Rock”. A great setting for wildlife watching while you kickstart your day with a breakfast buffet.

Lion Rock Sundowner Credit: Serena Hotels The ‘sun-downer’ is an essential part of safari life and dates back to the time of the great safaris of the 1920s when elegant cocktails were always served while watching the spectacle of the African sunset. Timed to begin as the sun starts its descent, the Sundowner opens with a gentle evening game drive, arriving at the site just as the evening sky turns a gold-pink.
