This sounds absolutely perfect! We’ve gone on safari in Zambia and South Africa, but now we’re keen to visit Kenya. Knowing that your safari stay is helping the local people with jobs, etc., is important… (And we love your zebra photo)

In reply to Neva @ Retire for the Fun of it. I understand your fears after the carnage in the Nairobi Mall. Although our trip was before that, we felt like we were in the hands of an excellent tour operator who knew the terrain and avoided risks.

I had backed away from an African Safari and not because of the wild animals, but the wild crazy people wanting to kidnap people. You made it sound so serene that obviously this place is the one to enjoy. Perhaps we should pack battery operated night lights.

Irene, What a perfect way to go on safari. It looks like they took care of every detail and the fact that the tenting experience was eco friendly is wonderful. I love the local touches of indigenous arts and crafts they used in the decor-and the hot water bottle-well what more can I say…

This sounds like a fabulous adventure. I’ve heard about Micato before. Africa is on my bucket list, so I took notes! 🙂

In reply to Juergen. Because we were surrounded by animals, we had to be accompanied by a Masai warrior if we left the tent after dark!

In reply to Michele Peterson (@atastefortravel). We also planted a tree before we left! Makes you feel good about leaving a place at least as good and maybe better than when you came.
