Hi, I'm not booked on the extension. Not sure whether to book additional trips now or wait till I get there. Anyone travelling from Lincolnshire?

Hi, I booked this trip last week and am traveling from North Wales, so not far from you in Merseyside, was thinking of getting the BMI shuttle down from Manchester.

Trouble with flying down is you are only allowed one bag of 20kg while with Kenya Airways you are allowed 2 bags. I was thinking about using National Express.

Hi Ronnie Tee here well I came back from Kenya last wednesday and I have to say you are in for a real treat, it was amazing, and doing the extra 5 days is well worth doing as you will need a rest. The people are great and the wildlife is brill, only got one mosquito bite!

Any questions give us a shout. After the Safari we went to Hellar park in Mombasa 5 mins from Hotel, we fed Giraffes and meet a 120 year old tortoise!

The holiday was fantastic.As Tina said Heller parc is definately worth a visit. They have hippos waterbuck and crocodiles as well as the giraffes. also many monkeys.Great place for close up photos.

i took some travellers cheques but was only able to change them at the hotel. Banks don't do it anymore.Also if you use credit card look out for hefty 8% tax added.There is a bank virtually next door to hotel which has an ATM.

Hope you all enjoy as much as I did.

Hi there, need a bit of help !! Doing the safari trip at the end of April. Was wondering how long approx. did it take for you to get from the plane to bus stop, about to book my National Express bus and wondering which time/bus to catch back. Thanks in advance, Kirsty.

Hi All , I took one suitcase and put a rucksack inside which had my Safari stuff in it. Then when I got to the airport I pulled the Rucksack out and took on Safari and the suitcase went to the travellers beach for the second part of hols. Dollars & schilling are best. its an 8 hr flight then another 1hr from Nairobi to moi. I sat on my own... window seat was good and plus we had loads of space as plane was not fully booked. The kids love pens & pads and of course sweets and any old t`shirts. You will get the beach boys asking for shampoo when you leave as they do struggle a bit out there so I gave them what I could. If you go to the beach say hi to Samson & Yankee and of course Levi who arranges excurions he wheres a yellow t`shirts and will be around the hotel he took us snorkelling & to school / Orphanage with lunch at place called the moorings in Mtwapa. Im so jealous I wish I could go again!!
