Mike and Judy Rainy have been involved with Amboseli and the surrounding Maasai pastoral areas for 37 years. You might say there's no one better able to hang around if you want to smell, taste, see and touch the 'real Africa', and you'd be right.
Mike and Judy are hospitable and cheerful hosts who know that the value of a day spent in Africa is not in the quality of the linen sheets and while the camp remains simple, yet comfortable, the memories you will take away will be of your unobstructed view of Kilimanjaro and the surrounding game-filled plains.

Kenya is the most established safari country, and consequently you have to step a little off the conventional route to find real wilderness, but it’s certainly there. Kenya also has much going for it as a family destination, and also a good number of very individual safari camps and lodges with a personal approach that makes your experience very special. Kenya also has a particularly diverse ecology which ranges from snowy mountains to true desert, rolling grassy plains filled with wildlife to craggy scrub intersected with dry riverbeds, sparkling beaches and volcanic ranges.
