Join our 4-day group snake safari into the wild beauty of Rukinga Conservancy, part of Tsavo’s untamed landscape. Meet at Voi Train Station at noon, then enjoy a scenic one-hour drive to our bush camp, your home for three nights in shared accommodation.
Explore the savannah on guided day and night walks, learn about Kenya’s incredible herps, and experience the thrill of the bush with expert herpetologists. All meals and drinking water are included, so you can relax and fully immerse yourself in the adventure.
After an early breakfast on day four, we return to Voi Station, leaving you with unforgettable memories and a deeper respect for Kenya’s wild reptiles.

- Rukinga Conservancy
Tucked against the Marungu Hills, Rukinga Wildlife Conservancy is a 74,000-acre haven of classic Acacia–Commiphora bush, home to elephants, lions, giraffes, buffalos and more. It is also a vital wildlife corridor linking Tsavo East and West. By visiting Rukinga, you are not just experiencing incredible wildlife—you are supporting community programs that create sustainable livelihoods and protect this landscape for generations. Conservation here strengthens local jobs, boosts tourism, and keeps both nature and culture thriving. Be part of the impact.
- Kivuli Camp.
Staying at Kivuli Camp is the perfect blend of comfort, simplicity, and that real bush-camp atmosphere everyone loves. We’ll be in the Family Banda—a cosy setup with two twin rooms and a shared bathroom and shower. It’s relaxed, spacious, and ideal for unwinding after a day of exploring. What makes Kivuli special is its setting: tucked into the wild, surrounded by the sounds of the savannah, with great food, warm hospitality, and a feel-at-home vibe. You get the charm of an authentic safari camp without losing the convenience you need. It’s the kind of place where you wake up to birdsong, fall asleep to distant wildlife calls, and spend your evenings under a sky full of stars. A simple stay, but a memorable one.
