ol Donyo Lodge is located on over 111,000 hectares of private land in the heart of the Chyulu Hills, between Kenya’s Tsavo and Amboseli National Parks.
The exclusive lodge lies at the foothills of the Chyulu Range, on 300,000 acres of communal land owned by the Masai people. The open plains, rolling Chyulu Hills and snow-capped peaks of Kilimanjaro invoke romantic images of Africa – abundant game and Masai herdsmen living as they have done for centuries in this unspoiled corner of Kenya.
Scheduled activities for the day include horseback riding, game drives, nature walk, and sundowner.
Lake Naivasha is one of Kenya’s Great Rift Valley lakes. With its commanding setting at the base of the Rift Valley Escarpment, the lake is an important horticultural hub of Kenya.
The lake area is a diverse bird and animal habitat, Colobus monkeys are often seen in the canopy of the Acacia forests around the lake. On the north shore of the lake, Buffalo, Waterbuck, and Eland are often seen grazing. Other tour attraction sites include Hell’s Gate and Mount Longonot National Park.

The Masai Mara offers wonderful scenery and plenty of game-viewing opportunities. It is perhaps the only region left in Kenya where the visitor may see animals in the same super-abundance as existed a century ago. Maasai Mara has got over 450 species of birds. One has to explore the plains and rolling hills for a chance to spot the elephant, black-manned lion, leopard, buffalo, cheetah, and with diverse species of hoofed animals.
The Masai Mara is justifiably one of the most famous game reserves in Africa. Dominated by great rolling plains of savannah grasslands, the Mara sustains the greatest variety of wildlife in Africa and indeed in the world. The concentration of game is at its highest from July through October when the reserve is host to the annual migration of more than a million wildebeests and zebras. However, game viewing is excellent year-round with giraffes, buffalo, zebra, eland, hartebeest, and Thompson’s gazelle offering a rich choice for the predator lions, leopards, and cheetahs.
It should be noted, however, that during the rainy season, the grass is fairly tall in some areas, which may affect visibility and restrict game drives slightly.
The neighbouring Maasai people, after whom the park is named, are nomadic. While on game drives, you will often notice young tribesmen herding their cattle amongst the plains game. They are colourfully attired, usually wrapped in bright red cloths, and armed with spears and rungus (tribal clubs).
The city and its surrounding area form the Nairobi County. The name “Nairobi” comes from the phrase Enkare Nyirobi, which translates to “the place of cool waters”. However, it is popularly known as the “Green City in the Sun” and is surrounded by several expanding villa suburbs. Also referred to as the “safari capital of the world”, Nairobi happens to be the only city in the world with a naturally occurring wildlife park within its boundaries, just a little beyond the central business district. This makes for excellent photography; wildlife casually in their natural habitat, with city sky scrapers towering in the background.
