My February 2019 North Mara trip
Kenya between 2 Feb 2019 and 10 Feb 2019
Arranged By Claire Scott

Crowne Plaza Nairobi Airport
"Convenient airport hotel"

Serian
"Excellent safari at Serian Camp"
Our key reason for chosing the Serian camp was the private guide and vehicle, which as keen birdwatchers means we can stop to identify the small brown birds too. This also gives complete freedom about when and how long you spend on the game drives. We also spent a morning walking on the other side of the river in the camp's vehicle free area.
All staff were very helpful. The food was very good and varied. We usually ate breakfast on our morning drive, returning in time for lunch, with a couple of hours to relax before tea and cake, sundowners on our evening drive and back for dinner. Our tent was very spacious, with an adjacent bathroom."

Conveniently next door to the Pedlars on the Bend Italian restaurant."

It meant we were very quickly at our hotel after clearing the airport which was ideal as we took the BA day flight, so arrived late in Nairobi. We then left early the following morning after breakfast.
We returned to the hotel for dinner on our final evening and took the shuttle bus to the airport."
