Safari Walk or game drive?

The Safari Walk is a raised boardwalk past animals in large enclosures. The Animal Orphanage cares for rescued animals. Both are good for small children and take an hour or two. The national park is the wild experience: free-roaming lions, rhinos, giraffes and buffalo across 117 square kilometres. Do the game drive in the cool morning, then walk the sanctuaries on the way out.

Our half-day private game drive ($300 per group (your group only, park fees paid separately)) exits at Main Gate, right beside both sanctuaries. Kenyan residents can join the weekend Land Cruiser drive for KSh 4,500 (non-residents $55), plus the park fee.
