Overview
Nairobi Tented Camp is now located in the peaceful, forested suburb of Karen, offering a tranquil retreat where nature’s rhythms set the pace of life.
Towering indigenous trees form a natural canopy overhead, filtering soft sunlight onto the forest floor and creating an atmosphere of pure serenity.
The air is fresh and fragrant with the scent of damp earth, while birdsong fills the forest and the occasional rustle of small wildlife—such as bush babies, tree hyraxes, and monkeys—adds to the sense of being immersed in nature.
Set within indigenous woodlands, the camp provides an authentic nature experience just a short drive from many of Nairobi’s most celebrated attractions.
This serene sanctuary is surrounded by rich birdlife and thriving forest habitat, offering guests the chance to reconnect with nature while enjoying the convenience of a city location.
Its unique setting near Nairobi National Park, Giraffe Centre, and David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust makes it an ideal base for nature lovers, conservation enthusiasts, and travelers seeking a peaceful retreat within easy reach of Nairobi’s wildlife and cultural experiences.
