“Different worlds in one place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 28, 2012

The atmosphere is very wonderful. All the animals there and the arrangement of the place makes you feel to be in totally a whole different relaxing place in the world. I definitely recommend this place to everyone.

“All-in-one Ranch and Restaurant”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 25, 2012

This place has a lot of animals to see: crocodiles, crocodiles babies, tortoises, ostrich, giraffe, and others which you can see from close. You can also ride on a camel cheaply.
Mamba Village also has good taste restaurant. But one bad thing when I finished my meal is they don't provide the bill, just said the figure and write it on a paper (I suspect there was difference).
Other nice things are a lake which form resemble to Africa continent and many games for children.

“Crocs”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 24, 2012

Had a good time with a good guide and could cuddle baby crocs and a very old turtle. Had a nice beer at the restaurant. Saw the giraff and we liked the place.

“Less known attraction, but one of my favorites.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 23, 2012

After many trips to Nairobi and seemingly had seen everything, I read about the Mamba village and decided to try it out. We had a blast here. We received a guided tour through the village from a very knowledgable staff member. Spent a lot of time around the Crocodiles, even got to hold a baby one. We went on feeding day, which is worth it, I believe their website mentions when that is. They also have several other animals to look at. The giraffe they have there is very friendly, we fed him and got many great pictures. We ended up spending a lot of time here, a definite must see in Nairobi.

“Not bad for first time visitors.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed September 14, 2012

It is not a crocodile farm. It is like a wildlife foster care center for crocodiles and turtles. Feeding time Sunday 4.00 PM, is a great experience. The limited other animals in the park include a few turtles, a bunch of ostriches and a lone giraffe. Entrance fee is very high for non-residents, park workers serve as unsolicited guides which expect gratuity at the end of tour.
