A budget safari Kenya doesn’t mean sacrificing the magic of the wilderness. It’s about smart planning and embracing a more rustic, yet still authentic, experience. This option is perfect for intrepid travelers, backpackers, and those who prioritize the wildlife encounters above opulent accommodations.

What to Expect:

Accommodation: Expect comfortable, clean, and safe budget safari camps, often with shared facilities, or basic but well-maintained lodges outside national parks. Think canvas tents with comfortable beds or simple guesthouses.
Transportation: Often involves shared safari vans with pop-up roofs for game viewing.
Food: Delicious, hearty meals prepared by camp chefs, focusing on local ingredients.
Activities: Primarily game drives in well-known national parks like Maasai Mara, Amboseli, and Tsavo.
Focus: Maximizing time in the parks and getting close to wildlife.
