Voyager Ziwani Tented Camp sits on the outskirts of southern Kenya's Tsavo West National Park. On the edge of a small lagoon near the Santee River and within a private sanctuary, it enjoys an ever-constant parade of hippos, crocs and numerous water birds, to name but a few. Ziwani is part of a collection of Kenyan camps, known for their sociable, high-energy atmosphere, and there's plenty of activities on offer, fro guided game walks to night drives. The kids club in particular is a highlight and little ones will be well looked-after and entertained!
There are 25 tents strung out along paved walkways, each with views across the dam and Mount Kilimanjaro in the background. Structures are made of canvas and slightly elevated above the grass with a spacious furnished wooden deck out front and shaded thatched coverings. They have mesh windows, zipper doors and tiled floors. At the rear of each is a built-in closet that forms part of a partition wall, behind which is the bathroom, with shower, basin and toilet. Rooms accommodate two or three guests in single or double bed configurations.
This game-rich private sanctuary offers easy access to Tsavo West, but also means you've got somewhere quiet to retreat home to. Oh, and it allows activities like game drives, not available in the national park.
The kids club is truly excellent and runs a variety of fun and educational activities throughout the day to keep the littlies engaged.
Safari veterans may find Ziwani a little contrived with its evening entertainment and low-key game walks.
