ACCOMMODATION INFORMATION
The Fairmont Norfolk Hotel
The exterior of the Norfolk Hotel has changed little since the colonial era. Timbered walls covered in vines and creepers, the taxi rank with old
London cabs queuing to take guests where they will, look much the same as they did in the old photographs that chart the history of Kenya.
Opened on Christmas Day 1904 (and still justifiably famous for its Christmas Morning cocktail party) the Norfolk has hosted such luminaries as
Lord Delamere, Theodore Roosevelt and Karen Blixen. Now expensively refurbished the hotel still retains a sense of history. The new reception
areas of the Norfolk Hotel are light, bright and immediately welcoming. Ceiling fans, cane chairs, plump animal-print cushions and deep sofas
combine with locally sourced woods to create a tranquil ambience with echoes of the colonial period in which the Norfolk featured so strongly.
However, not all is new - the long case clock in the hall, for example, was presented to the hotel by the drivers in the Nairobi to Johannesburg
Race on 26th October, 1936.
The Ibis Restaurant, at the Norfolk, is renowned locally for its innovative use of the best and freshest of ingredients Kenya has to offer. The
executive chef ensures that the chefs gain experience in the finest hotels and restaurants in Europe. The cosmopolitan cuisine features classic and
new dishes exquisitely prepared, and finely tuned as to seasoning and accompaniments. The chic clientele bear witness to the restaurants

popularity. The Lord Delamere Terrace and Restaurant offers less formal dining. Here you may take a light meal or indulge in the sumptuous
themed buffets. The Hibiscus lounge is ideal for a colonial-style afternoon tea.
Accommodation at the Norfolk varies from large opulent suites to smaller, more intimate rooms. All are beautifully furnished and many look out
onto the hotel's lovely gardens. The grounds are immaculate and profusely planted with indigenous plants. Artefacts from the hotel's history are
dotted around including a sedan chair from the colonial era. The Norfolk Hotel offers all the comforts of a modern first class hotel yet combines
it with an intriguing sense of history.

Richard’s Camp
Richard’s Camp is owned and operated by Richard Roberts and Liz Fusco. Their son Willoughby was born in 2006 and is growing up in the
Mara. Richard was raised in the Masai Mara from the age of 3, and his parents, Willy and Sue were instrumental in bringing together the Masai
communities that form the wildlife conservation association that exists in this area today. Richard’s camp’s first rate Masai and Samburu guides
have an abundant and intimate knowledge of the Masai Mara, it’s wildlife and it’s people. The entire warm and welcoming staff at Richard’s
Camp ensure guests a very special stay.
A traditional tented camp in true African safari style with modern amenities. Each individually decorated tent has either twin or double beds with
extra beds available for families. Our solar system provides clean, silent power and ensures 24-hour light to all the tents. All of our 6 large and
spacious custom designed tents feature an en suite flush loo and heated shower. Rarely has sleeping under canvas been made so comfortable.
As the weather almost always permits, we eat all our meals outside under Kenyan skies, but for those rare rainy or chilly evenings, we dine
inside, adjacent to our beautiful and cozy sitting room with it’s roaring fire. Enjoy flopping on the sofa to read or just relax. At the end of the day,
guests can indulge in an open-air Victorian bath tucked away in the forest, surrounded by flickering candles and the sounds of the bush.
Your day is designed to be as exciting or relaxing as you wish. There is a variety of activities from which to choose - escorted bush walks, day
and night game drives, sundowners, full days out with delicious picnic lunches into the very heart of the Mara, bush dinners down by the hippo
pools, visiting the rhinos, and cultural visits to Masai villages - all tailor made to ensure a rewarding safari of a lifetime.
Balloon safaris, scenic flights over the Masai Mara, and day trips to Lake Victoria can also be arranged at an extra cost.

DESTINATION, NATIONALPARKS AND GAME RESERVES INFORMATION
Masai Mara National G.R
Probably the most famous of the reserves, the Masai Mara, in Kenya's south western corner, boasts an astonishing amount of game. Unfenced,
the Mara is bounded in the east by the Ngama Hills and in the west by the Oloololo or Siria Eascarpment. Gazelle, wildebeest and zebra graze in
large numbers and where prey is found so are predators. Not only is this a great place in which to find game, but the wide greeny-gold
savannahs spotted with thorn trees make it ideal for photography. The Mara, as it is known in Kenya, is ravishingly beautiful and also offers
long, undisturbed views and utterly dramatic panoramas. The weather really means something here. The sun may beat down unforgivingly, huge
clouds in fabulous shapes may sweep across the widest of skies, the wind ripples the grasses as though they are stroked by a giant hand. The
landscape is stunning.
The famously black-maned Mara lions are possibly the stars of the Mara show, but cheetah, elephant, kongoni, topi, Thompson's gazelle,
waterbuck, hyena, and primates are all here too. As with the rest of Kenya, the birding is good. There is no settlement within the reserve
however, the Mara is in theory owned by the Maasai, pastoralists and, in earlier times, renowned lion-killers. Lodges and hotels offer the
opportunity to buy their beadwork, checked cloths and copies of their spears. It is said that if lions scent approaching Maasai on the breeze they
move swiftly in the opposite direction.
Famously, the Mara is the northerly end of the Great Migration, that great primeval surge of wildebeest, zebra and antelope that sweeps in from
Tanzania's Serengeti to Kenya's Masai Mara as the Tanzanian grass starts to fail. They are tracked by the large predators who pick off the weak,
the stragglers and the young. The great herds, nearing their destination by July, mass along the Mara River, pushing, shoving and fantastically
noisy, just waiting for the first animal to cross so that they can all follow, lemming-like, on the final leg of the journey. However, crocodiles lie
in wait, sluggishly cruising the waters, fully prepared for their best meal of the year. Many fail in the life-and-death struggle - drowned, eaten by
the crocodiles or, made careless or weak by their stressful swim, brought down by lions. The Masai Mara is terrible yet wonderful, and not to be
missed.

PLEASE be reminded to inform your clients that the luggage allowance on our schedule flights is strictly 15KGS PER PERSON and that SOFT

obligations is prevented or affected.

the local representative, Hotel, Lodge or Camp management. It is likely that the tour member’s complaint will be satisfactorily resolved there and
then. If, however, this is not the case and the tour member wishes to pursue the matter on their return from safari, it is essential the complaint be

Africa regrets cannot accept responsibility of any complaints, which are not notified entirely in accordance to this clause.
