Mukurumuji Tented Camp, Shimba Hills, Kenya

Mukurumuji inspires a sense of tranquility and peace.  A place of exceptional natural beauty, it is resonant with the sounds of wild animals and birds and the whisper of forest trees.  From your tent you may look across tree tops in the valley and see a herd of sable antelope, elephant or buffalo on the hills.  Enjoy a walk down to the river or choose to sit quietly, simply observing and absorbing.  As the African night falls, a campfire is lit and you can watch the stars and listen to the clamour of extraordinary night sounds.
