ALOT of meeting spaces for different sized groups

For anybody concerned about it being a Resort and Casino, the casino is really hidden off in one corner, I never noticed it the entire time I was there other than exploring to figure out where things were. The bedrooms didn't have A/C which was not an issue for us except one person who is always hot. 

There were a LOT of meeting spaces for different sized groups - they could accommodate a large group (300 plus) for a meeting.

Guest Relations Team are Phenomenal

Stayed 8 nights for meetings. The Guest Relations team at the entrance are phenomenal. The porter Paul Mwaka went out of his way to accommodate my special requests, was very attentive to the point of taking notes to make sure he got things right. Daniel too was very kind and supportive and whatever may not have gone quite right was somehow made better by this team.

Huge complex in beautiful gardens

Stayed here 3 nights for a big workshop, and enjoyed the stay. The hotel (well outside Nairobi city center) is enormous and spread out over large lush grounds, with lots of greenery, different buildings containing rooms, several restaurants, a casino, reception, bars, etc. As we were in all-day meetings we did not leave the hotel grounds, so I appreciated that the grounds were so lush and big, with lovely pools and walking paths (looking more like a resort than a conference hotel).

African Paradise

Had one of the best African experiences ever. The Nyama choma ranch atmosphere was electric, the dancers put the icing on the cake... Our waiter Elijah was charming , friendly from the word go, he got me to swear that I'll be back again at the Ranch😂😂 , he made the whole experience wonderful. He is a Five star ⭐

Fadhili J

Excellent Service

Super excellent service. Amazing ambience, well manicured gardens and great food. The experience at the gym was super amazing as well. Kind and professional service from Christine Mugo at the reception. Keep it up!!

Steven R

Great resort, easy to get to & friendly staff

Stayed with the kids for just two nights on route to a lodge in the National Park. Breakfast was really good, fantastic coffee. Swimming pool was clean but a little chilly. Rooms were good but we had booked for twin rooms and there was only one bed in each room, but it was fine as the kids just stayed in the same room. Check in was really easy. Very friendly staff.

Micato Safaris Launches A Trip To View—And Help—Elephants In Kenya

Elephants are always top of the list for wildlife viewing on an African safari, but this new trip focuses on enlightening elephant encounters and ways to support them.

  • Share to Facebook
  • Share to Twitter
  • Share to Linkedin

Feeding an orphaned baby elephant at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Kenya.

In any wildlife-dense African safari, it may be difficult to pick which animal sighting was the most fundamentally thrilling but for many regular safari goers, elephants often win the debate. The reasons are the sheer size and majesty of these creatures along with their easily observable emotional displays and social interactions, especially if babies are part of the herd. But due to conflicts and poachers, they’re still endangered, a situation that Micato Safaris is calling attention to with the Elephant Encounters Safari, a new close encounter custom trip in Kenya.

A tent open to the plains at ol Donyo Lodge.

The 10 day trip begins in Nairobi and a stay at the Colonial plantation style, Hemingways Nairobi, a boutique hotel in the suburb of Karen, named for Out of Africa author Karen Blixen. While there, guests will visit the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to meet the orphaned baby elephants that the Trust has rescued; they can also arrange to sponsor one. The next day, guests take a helicopter to the Relais & Chateaux/ Great Plains Conservation property ol Donyo Lodge where each suite has a straight on view of Mt. Kilimanjaro and its own star bed to sleep under the sky. For the next three days, guests can watch elephants in the waterhole from the lodge’s hide. (As a bonus to those not on property, the hide also has a webcam so the action at the waterhole can be viewed from anywhere.) By staying there, guests also contribute to the lodge’s Big Life Foundation which helps to preserve the Maasai traditional lifestyle and works to combat poaching.

The hide by the waterhole at ol Donyo Lodge allows close up viewing of elephants and other wildlife without being seen.

While at ol Donyo, guests can observe the impressively tusked elephants of Amboseli National Park which is famous for its elephant population. And to understand more about them—their distribution, demography, population dynamics, social organization, and behavior- they will spend time at the Amboseli Elephant Research Project (AERP), the research arm of the Amboseli Trust for Elephants. Tax deductible donations fuel their research; the ability to name an elephant can be exchanged for a donation.

Guests of Sheldrick Wildlife Trust’s Ithumba Camp meeting the elephants at the Trust's nearby rehabilitation center.

The next two days of the itinerary are spent in Tsavo East National Park east of Ambesoli in the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust’s Ithumba Camp near the Trust’s Ithumba Reintegration Unit, a rehabilitation center for orphaned elephants that prepares them to reenter the wild. Guests here will observe the orphans in their day long activities including a midday mud bath; they may also have the opportunity to see elephants who have been reintroduced to the wild return to visit, often with their calves in tow. The trip concludes with two days in the Borana Conservancy at the lavish three bedroom private estate Arijiju with day trips to Samburuland for more elephant viewing. Also included is a visit to Reteti Elephant Sanctuary which, run by the Samburu, is the first community owned elephant sanctuary in Africa. The final day is spent in Nairobi observing the programs of Micato-AmericaShare which the company founded 40 years ago to provide education, community outreach and economic empowerment to children and women in disadvantaged areas of the city.

The pool at the private estate Arijiju.

On its own, the trip in the bush represents a personally enriching experience for any of the elephant-loving guests who take part. But, as Dennis Pinto, Micato Safaris’ managing director explains, they will also be helping the company support the elephants in this region. “Elephants require a tremendous amount of land to survive and habitat loss is the number one reason elephants are endangered,” he explains. “The African elephant population also continues to suffer needlessly from the illegal hunting of ivory traffickers. This is a crisis that is not going away.”

Mealtime out in the bush at the private estate Arijiju.

Over the years, the company has sponsored elephants orphaned by poachers and will cover the cost of sponsoring baby elephants for travelers on this and other journeys. “This effort is deeply important,” he says,”as elephants thrive on the companionship of the family unit. Adult elephants have been known to stop eating and die from loneliness and grief. Even at a basic nutritional level, elephant young depend on their mother’s milk for the first two years of life. Without the support of a family, there is no hope for an orphaned elephant. Which is why the nurturing and companionship of a family unit, provided by elephant sanctuaries in Africa, are so important.”

As a custom trip, this safari can be arranged at any time of year. Pinto recommends avoiding April-early May, however, when elephant viewing is not as frequent as in other months.
