What travelers are saying
- Dorothy P8 contributionsGot to go on a private tour of the elephant orphanage with a small safari group I traveled with. Couldn’t believe we were the only ones there that got to be with the orphans! The main keeper Edwin gave us our tour, it was so special and all of the proceeds go to wildlife conservation! Even got to pet a baby rhino they rescued! What a magical place,Written September 15, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- MissscarlettHong Kong, China79 contributionsI had lunch there. The environment is vert nice. They serve buffet but also alacart menĂş.
We picked the alacart menĂş and most of dishes are western dish with Burger, pizza, pasta.
Taste is fair and the portion is big.Written September 14, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Wazzo1Latimer, UK13 contributionsAmazing safari
Lots of game
Great trip organised by Wasili safaris and the best tour guide, who was Peter.
We stayed at Sarova Shaba. The staff were helpful, friendly and the food standard was excellent. Highly recommended tourWritten August 7, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I didn't expect to see a number of crocodiles and learn more facts about them. Who knew the sex of a crocodile was temperature influenced? Definitely not me. But now I do, I learnt that under cold temp and hot temp the hatchlings are female and male respectively. Mamba village is indeed a hub of Crocs.
Apart from the crocodiles it hosts 3 species of tortoises that is the leopard, terrapin( not sure with sp) and the speke's hinge back tortoise.
It also has a great dam scenary, picnic site and is child friendly.
Almost forgot about the ostriches, though there was just one specie, the Maasai ostrich both male and female.Written July 22, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There are some snakes and tortoises in the open. Some of the cages are very dirty which makes it hard to spot the snakes. There is also a small aquarium.
Staff encourage tourists to hold the animals and take pictures, but I would prefer it if they let them be.Written August 24, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

This truly was my personal highlight of our trip in Kenya. Kiano is very loving, a great family man and funny. His family is very warming and welcoming and it's really impressive and admirable how they live their lives. Also the Mount Suswa area is beautiful (great nature and beautiful milky way every night). Would highly recommend everyone (couples, groups, etc) to book a one or two day stay and tour with Kiano.
Tip: Bring some clothes, toys (football), school equipment or any other kind of presents with you when visiting his family. They will absolutely love it (and you will too).Written March 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The sanctuary offers great vies across the gorge into the national park and with the Nairobi highrises in the background offers those spectacular scenes every photographer is looking for.
Great hospitality by Will Knocker and his game drives into the park make for great experiences!Written October 29, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The orphanage hosts lions, cheetahs, various monkeys, etc. It takes care of not a huge variety. Giraffe centre is by far amazing.Written December 28, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Amy1 contributionMe and boyfriend got a week off and wanted to travel. We planned to visit safari. While searching online I came across the Keru Safaris & Tours. Our tour consultant was Jerusha. She was very polite and helpful. He proposed a 3 day travel in Masai Mara Safari. It was once in a lifetime experience. we even saw the leopard, being the most elusive of the five. The guide was brilliant and knowledgeable and ensured a wonderful and entertaining game drive. The tour was comfortable and pleasant. Definitely worth every penny!!!Written March 11, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
