Its easiest to use a car to get anywhere in Kenya and getting to the Mabati House is no exception. However, there are many taxis and taxi motorbikes (boda boda) operating locally that can be useful for those without private transport.

As we are primarily a wildlife conservancy, a conservation fee of KES 1000/- per adult and 500/- per child (Free for kids under 5) is charged upon arrival at the gate. This is only paid once and goes towards all our conservation efforts.

Please remember that you're staying in my home, not a hotel. Please treat the space with respect. If any problems arise, we will do our best to take action ASAP.
