amazing for us!!

“Dear amazing crew at Nairobi Tented Camp. We were only coming for a
sun downer - but I’m so glad that we stayed for the night. How magical
this place is – it’s hard to believe we are in a major capital city. Where in

expression of who we are.

"We have loved all three of our Porini Camps and this was a great way to
finish our Kenyan adventure. William & John worked so hard to ensure
we saw everything on our wish list. James & Daniel front of house, Patrick
an excellent host and two special mentions to kopi who held by hard two
and from the mess tent every night and whoever it was who delivered
our hot water buckets in the raging storm. Thank you.”

" Porini Lion Camp exceeded my
exceptionally high expectations.
The animals were incredible, but
everything else was just special.
The food, the staff, the guides,
the other guests and the
schedule was fantastic. Thank
you all for the memories and I
hope to see you all again in the
future.

"An excellent camp with a wide variety of wildlife to spot. Even if you are
not a morning person, being woken up with a hot beverage more than
makes up for it. An excellent opportunity to learn about the Maasai as
well. All in all definitely worth another visit. Now on my list of top places.”
