Sleep under canvas and embark on an authentic safari in the city.
Nestled within the lush woodlands of Karen, Nairobi Tented Camp offers a tranquil retreat where nature’s rhythms set the pace of life. Towering indigenous trees form a natural canopy, filtering soft sunlight onto the forest floor creating an atmosphere of pure serenity. The air is crisp with the scent of damp earth, carrying the calls of birds and the occasional rustle of small wildlife such as bush babies, tree hyraxes and monkeys moving through the trees.
Carefully positioned between the trees, the canvas tents blend in with the environment, offering a sense of seclusion without sacrificing comfort. This is a place where guests can immerse themselves in nature while remaining just a short distance from Nairobi’s bustling city centre.
Why we love Nairobi Tented Camp

-
For wildlife lovers this is a great alternative to spending a night in a busy city hotel
-
The wildlife viewing in Nairobi National Park makes for interesting photography - expect giraffes set against a backdrop of skyscrapers
-
After a hearty three-course lunch, you deserve a siesta in one of the hammocks
