Chris No need to worry about injections unless you do visit Tanzania as well. In that case you will need a yellow fever jab (lasts 10 years, and comes into effect 10 days after you've had it) which you can normally get from your GP's practice nurse (cost ranges from £45 to £70). The certificate is inspected when you enter the second country. No other jabs are required, though as I said before, it's always a good idea to...

Never had any problem with KA. You can pre book seats and also check in on line. Useful to know about their seat numbering. Staff for us have always been very friendly. It does happen that some of entertainment systems don't work. Especially at seats at rear of plane. Luggage allowance is good.

Hi,
You may get something from someone who has stayed there, but in the meantime I happened across it during my wanderings around Mtwapa (which takes some doing as its well off the beaten track - I'd recommend you take a motorbike taxi. It was closed when I found it but it looks pretty basic. I would suspect that they are not en suite as their promotional material (which ever...

I have booked a safari for my next visit with Glorious Safaris and so far can not fault their service. I have requested a 5 day private safari to Tsavo east and west detailing where we want to stay and for how long. They have provided a perfect itinerary and have kept me informed at every stage of the booking process including copies of the individual lodge booking conformation emails. ...

The only documents you'll need are your passport and some cash.
Some other paperwork will be provided on the flight for you to fill in - with name, address etc and details of where yo uare staying, fo rhow long, purpose of visit etc. All very routine, straightforward stuff..

Slofty Hi, thanks for the reply, but I think you misunderstood the cost difference, it was £420 each over 14 days that works out at £30 per day.!! cheers..Trevor

Yes- the meals in the restaurant are buffet style.
Twice a week Bar-bq on the beach (still buffet style).
We found them good. Talking to people who used the chef service in the suites it was hit and miss depending on which chef you had.
We found it nicer to go up to the Restaurant and socialise rather than stay shut away nin your room.
If I had to pick i would say ...

Yes, you soon learn to spot the Kenglish. We do try to "out" posts that look fishy.
They don't seem to realise that they aren't doing themselves or the company they are recommending any favours as we avoid them like the plague!

We've used Gainsborough Lodge a fair few times.
http://www.gainsborough-lodge.co.uk/parking. You don't have to stay there to park and if you do, its at a reduced rate. They offer a mini-bus drop off/pick up service to the terminal.

For your flights within Kenya Safari Link had far superior planes then those of Air Kenya. We were there two months ago and had 4 flights within the country. The Air Kenya plane did not ever have any electronic avionics, only old fashioned gauges. I guess that since we are still alive it must have been safe.
Of the lodges you mention we did stop for a rest stop at the Serena ...

Hi Nikola
Edna is the best person to give info about Lioness cubs.
Underwear and flip flops are always useful.Soap, toothbrushes also.
Items which could be bought in Kenya might be cooking utensils for the planned kitchen at Little Angels, as well as food which we always mention.

We recently used the lounge at Nairobi. Paid 1600/- each at the door.
They have comfy leather sofas and chairs, air con (although not terribly efficient), TV, internet, nibbles (quiche, pizza, rolls, samosas, crisps, nuts, biscuits), unlimited tea/coffee, soft drinks, spirits, beers and water (help yourself). Over a few hours you can quite easily run up that sort of bill in ...
