Community
When something is fundamentally right it just works. There are no handouts to be had and all our community projects are established in partnership with local people.
Running a business in Africa is hard work and with it comes tough decisions. We have not got it perfect yet but we aspire to make every part of our business as ethically sound as possible.
Our Camps act as a source of local industry and employment with food produce and project materials bought locally. We bring the funds, enthusiastic travellers and sustainability.
During your stay with us you will become involved with projects ranging from low-level construction to making elephant dung paper. We have to balance the needs of the project with our need to ensure that your experience is both fulfilling and fun, but can assure you of an incredible experience.
The end result is an international, multi racial, multi religious, culturally diverse community achieving extraordinary things together.

The best part of my visit has been the Kenyan people, everyone has been friendly, warm and welcoming. It is what I will remember most. The work that Camp Kenya is doing for Stephen Kanja School is fantastic. I hope that I will come back here again and see the trees and kitchen that we worked on .The camp here is a lovely place made special by the staff. I will miss it and the people
