Hello!!! The camp is fantastic and well placed. It's a tented camp and the distances between the tents and the main buildings are not very big but you'll have to walk through the camp which is quite wild. The staff is awesome, the only thing I would recommend to check would be about the menus for the kids (as there was a unique menu without many options to choose) and also about the possibility of sleeping all four in a tent as ours were for 2 although they were spacious. You must consider that the power is turned off any ours during the day at the tents but you always have supply in the main buildings. I think you'll be able to book directly with them through their website but I'm not 100% sure as we booked our whole safari trip with Sunworld Safaris which I strongly recommend. Have a great time in Kenya!!!
