Visit the Il Ngwesi Maasai community
Learn first-hand about local customs, culture and the daily lives of the Maasai with a visit to the Il Ngwesi community, located approximately 1 hours drive from Sirikoi.

Forest walk and picnic
Take a guided walk within the protected Ngare Ndare forest, accompanied by an experienced ranger.  You will pause at a glorious jade-coloured forest pool filled by a high waterfall, where the more adventurous may choose to swim.  You will then continue to an elevated canopy walkway, ending at a wooden deck 30 feet above ground, where a picnic will be awaiting you. 

Horseback riding
Riding on horseback through the bush, accompanied by an experienced guide, will give you an unparalleled opportunity to get close to wildlife as many game species allow horses to approach very closely without feeling threatened. Combined with the stunning scenery and varied terrain, this is a riding experience not to be missed. We will match you to your horse, based on your level of confidence and can cater for both amateur and experienced riders.

Bi-plane excursions
Enjoy the allure of the early aviation days, when Karen Blixen and Denys Finch-Hatton flew around Kenya, by flying over Lewa in a brand new Waco biplane. Based on the original model of the 1920's and 30's, the plane has room for two passengers to sit side by side for a nostalgic, once-in-a-lifetime flying experience.

Helicopter trips
After just a 15-minute helicopter flight from Sirikoi you can be circling the peaks of Mount Kenya, the second highest point in Africa. Remote and unspoiled destinations all over Kenya can be explored from the isolated desert dunes in the north to the Nguruman Escarpment in the south.

Camel safari
This is a walking safari, with camels to carry the camp and supplies, led by Samburu tribesmen whose knowledge of the terrain has been passed through generations. A three to four hour walk in the morning with a stop for a bush breakfast is followed by a long rest during the heat of the day at your newly erected campsite. You will finish off the day with an evening bushwalk and a hot shower under the stars before falling asleep listening to the sounds of the African bush.

Fly camps
A new activity at Sirikoi gives guests the opportunity to book a few nights in our specially developed mobile camp which can be set up at remote locations throughout Kenya, from the dry bush country of Samburu to the forests of the Matthews Range to the shores of Lake Turkana. You can experience the beauty, solitude and fascinating tribal cultures of these rarely visited destinations. You can follow the migrations or the transitory elephants as they travel vast distances in large numbers. We will set up the camp, which you can join by road, plane or helicopter.

Fishing
There are some fantastic trout fishing opportunities on Lake Alice and Lake Michelson, both within the neighbouring Mount Kenya National Park and accessible by helicopter. We can also organise specialised fishing trips all over Kenya, from fishing marlin and sailfish off the Lamu coastline, to Nile perch and tilapia in Lake Turkana.
