Founded in the 7th century, lamu still reflects the typical picture of
the old arabic dhow ports. Not only the swahili-culture has its roots
in lamu, but hand finished, richly carved furniture and doors. Old 18th
century stone houses, women dressed in the traditional bui-bui, donkey
caravans, fishermen in their dhows with huge triangular sails giving the
atmosphere of the busy days of the past. The narrow streets have about
4000 donkeys, which take the place of cars, lorries and taxis.
Lamu palace hotel is located on lamu island directly on the seashore.
It has 22 rooms all of which are air-conditioned. There is a restaurant
on the rooftop and a more spacious one on the terrace serving seafood,
as it’s specialty. There are sunbathing, diving, snorkeling by dhow
boat trips to the nearby manda island.
Older than the london ritz, younger than the savoy, no other hotel in
kenya has as rich history as the norfolk, one of the worlds most romantic
hotels. When it first opened on christmas of 1904, it was to spearhead
traditions, which are still unmatched today. Nairobi as a capital of kenya
grew all around the norfolk. It soon became a gathering place for new
arrivals, businessmen and government officials. Big game hunters, with
clients such as aristocrats and adventurers who came to experience the
new kenya, started their safaris here. It was an island of civilized comfort
in the early wild and dusty days of this country. The guest list made
its legend and still does so today .because of the excellent service and
the fine cuisine it is now a member of "the leading hotels of the
world".
The governors' family of camps provides luxury and comfort while retaining
the authentic flavor of safari camping. There is still excitement - wild
animals in camp, only canvas overhead and yet you can have a hot shower
and iced drinks. The high quality of food and service seem amazing in
this rough, bush setting miles from civilization. This was the first tented
camp to be established in the masai mara national reserve.
The green tents are sited along the high banks of the looping mara river.
Tall old trees, clipped green lawns, and the quiet river give everything
a feeling of tranquility. Each tent is sited on a cement foundation with
a private bathroom. There are hot showers, flush toilets, washbasins and
even bidets.
With its 5,199 meter height, the mt. Kenya is africa's second highest
mountain and superb scenic beauty. Although it is right on the equator,
its peaks are snow covered all year. Part of the mountain's fascination
is the variety in flora and fauna as the altitude changes. A number of
rare or endangered species can be found here. The mountain is regarded
as the perfect model of an equatorial mountain.the mount kenya safari
club, with its blend of romance, history and scenery has become a kenyan
tradition. Built right at the equator, on a ridge facing mt kenya, the
site is truly magnificent. The grand main building gleams white against
the green sweep of surrounding lawns, and there are dramatic vies of the
foothill forests rising to the peak of mt. Kenya.
The accommodation covers a wide range of styles, locations and prices.
Activities includes, nine-hole golf course, heated swimming pool, horseback
riding on trails, tennis- bowling, green museum of african art, kimathi
hideout used by the legendary mau mau general, trout fishing and moor
land walks.
This area of 1,800 sq km national reserve spreads southwest of nairobi,
along the tanzanian border and the serengeti national park. The mara river
and its tributary the talek water the landscape of gently rolling grassy
hills. Masai mara has the highest concentration of game in kenya and the
largest lion population, including the black-manned lion. The mara river
is teeming with hippos, huge crocodiles and oversized catfish. It is the
theatre of the "greatest animal show on earth", the great migration.
From july to september, hundred thousands of gnus, accompanied by zebras,
antelopes and gazelles, move from the dry serengeti to greener pastures,
closely monitored by their predators.
The luxurious mara safari club is set at the foot of the aitong hills
in the ol-choro oiroua conservation area, bordering the masai mara national
reserve. All tents have their own private river frontage, with four-poster
beds, veranda, electricity, modern en suite facilities with hot and cold
running water. The main building, with lounge, bar and dining room is
cantilevered over the river.
Chale island is a small dreamy coral island, located about 12 km south
of the famous diani beach. The island is a nature reserve with wealth
of animal & bird life, natural springs (thermal) and salt lakes in
the interior. Being mostly furnished with african/arabic antiques, the
elegant tented bungalows and apartments have a combined living and bedroom,
a separate bathroom with shower and toilet and a spacious terrace overlooking
the indian ocean. The tented bungalows are makuti thatched with their
own little sunbathing beach. The open restaurant, the palm leaf thatched
