Description |
Located on the plains of Mount Kenya, the camp features thirty-nine luxury tents, each with its own private veranda overlooking the water hole. The central Rhino Restaurant is housed in the former manager's house of this once colonial farm, and offers both regional and international cuisine. Also within the house is the Kashoggi Bar and lounge, which centres on a blazing log fire. The Waterhole Bar, built in the style of a game-viewing hide, overlooks the waterhole and offers unrivalled wildlife-watching. |

A sustainable program for Kenyan families
While there are many wealthy areas in Nairobi, other districts are home to low-income and disadvantaged families and children, and the grinding poverty they endure is very challenging and bad for their health. Through our relationship with the Social Services and Housing Department of the Nairobi City County, One Horizoninitiates sustainable development programs in needy communities, and today you will help to prepare and serve a hearty and nutritious Kenyan lunch at a children’s feeding centre or ‘soup kitchen’.We provide humanitarian teams to work alongside the Kenyans who take ownership of these programs and you'll stand shoulder to shoulder with the Kenyans who warmly welcome you into their community.
You will have a fun and energetic day filled with children’s laughter, and you will pitch in with the chores like peeling and chopping fresh fruit and vegetables and cooking lunch of beans and ugali (a maize flour dish eaten across East Africa). You’ll share the lunch with the kids and have the opportunity to talk to them about their schooling and lifestyles, and you’ll discover that they are just interested about you as you are about them. This is a uniquely personal hands-on experience and travellers meet a grassroots community that they would never typically interact with on a Kenyan holiday. And it is immensely satisfying to know that by donating your tour fees and precious time, you are part of alleviating the problems of poverty in Kenya.
