Nairobi to Kembu Farm

After a well deserved sleep at the hotel in Nairobi we were up at the crack of dawn to meet our guides and fellow travellers. There are 18 of us in the group – a mix of mainly British, but a couple of Canadians and Americans too. We also have 2 guides, a cook and a driver.

The whole region is heavy on security since the hotel bombing last week in Nairobi. Our taxi from the airport was scanned for explosives on entering the hotel grounds and we hit a number of police checkpoints en route to Kembu Farm.

This is not our hotel but we saw many of these on the road!!!

Public transport – Kenyan style

A lot of our trip in Kenya will be through The Rift Valley. We stopped on the road to get a view of it. There was quite a heat haze so pictures are not great. Apart from those of Margaret and myself of course.

Below, see our luxury vehicle for the next 9 days. We each got a locker for our luggage – bit of a tight squeeze. Tents, mattresses, cooking equipment, tables & chairs, food, water, gas all packed into this war horse. Our guide keeps telling us that this is not a holiday – it’s an adventure. The holiday comes at the end in Zanzibar. Hence we are up at 5.50am tomorrow to do our first game drive.
