Nairobi Tented Camp

Nairobi Tented Camp Nairobi Tented Camp reopened in June 2025 in Karen’s lush woodlands—perfectly placed for visits to Nairobi National Park and nearby wildlife attractions.

This beautiful camp is located deep within a riverine forest minutes from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, Wilson Airport and the city of Nairobi. You are so close to the city yet so far. It is an authentic tented camp in the heart of the Nairobi National Park. You can experience the thrill of camping in the heart of thick bush land right at the door step of the capital city.

Evenings at Nairobi Tented Camp come with a quiet kind of magic 🔥

Tucked away in a forested corner of Karen, the camp offers something you don’t often expect in the city — an indoor fireplace right inside the lounge tent.

As the day winds down, guests gather around the warmth of the fire, swapping safari stories, planning the next adventure, or simply enjoying the calm after a busy day in Nairobi.

It’s that rare blend of wilderness atmosphere and city convenience — where you can still feel connected to nature, even before your safari officially begins.

A soft crackle of fire, forest sounds outside, and the feeling that you’ve already arrived somewhere special.

From Nairobi Tented Camp in Karen, it’s an easy journey into Nairobi National Park where lions, giraffes and rhinos roam just minutes from the city skyline.

A morning on safari. An afternoon back in camp. Wild and urban, side by side no filter needed.
Nairobi really said: “why choose one when you can have both?”

Spotted at Nairobi Tented Camp … but heard long before seen 👀

Meet the tree hyrax — a small, fluffy forest dweller that sounds like it swallowed a megaphone.
And here’s the twist: it’s one of the closest living relatives of the Elephant. Yes, that elephant. 🐘

No trunk. No tusks. Just… very loud opinions after dark.

Unlike their rock-loving cousins, tree hyraxes prefer life in the canopy — sleeping in tree hollows by day and turning into surprisingly dramatic vocalists at night. If you’ve ever heard an eerie call echoing through camp and thought “what on earth was that?”… congratulations, you’ve met this tiny “elephant relative.”

Same family tree.
Wildly different life choices.

Nature really said: diversify the portfolio 🌳

The mess tent at Nairobi Tented Camp is more than a place to dine. It’s the heart of the camp where days begin over quiet cups of coffee and end in shared stories beneath soft lantern light.

Here, the wild feels close but never distant, woven gently into every conversation, every pause, every moment around the table.
It’s not just where you eat. It’s where the safari begins and where it stays with you.

𝐙𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐖𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐲 — Spotlight on Sustainability at Porini Camps
Today we’re celebrating 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐙𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐖𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞 (𝟑𝟎 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡) — a global observance that calls on all of us to rethink waste, reduce what we throw away, and build more circular systems so resources aren’t lost but reused. This year the focus is on cutting food waste, one of the biggest and most preventable contributors to global waste and greenhouse gas emissions.

Watch our camp manager from Nairobi Tented Camp explain how we’re striving for zero waste. In the video, he breaks down how zero-waste principles shape everyday life across our Porini Camps. From smart food planning and composting kitchen scraps, to recycling, reuse systems, and careful supply management — we’re always pushing the envelope on sustainability. These efforts aren’t just good for the planet; they help preserve the wild places and wildlife our guests come to experience.

At all Porini Camps, practical steps like these help minimize waste and maximize positive impact in the places we operate — and we’re always learning and improving.

Let’s make every day closer to zero waste.

Just beyond the city’s heartbeat, where the wild still whispers through the trees, a different kind of Nairobi waits.

At Nairobi Tented Camp, mornings begin with golden light filtering through canvas walls and birdsong replacing traffic noise. Coffee tastes richer out here. Time slows down. And the world feels softer.

You fall asleep to the quiet rhythm of nature… and wake up in the middle of a story you didn’t know you needed.

This is Nairobi but not as you know it.
