About Wildebeest Camp & Travels

Established in 2006, originally we worked from a small office, where we assisted guests book their accommodation, safaris and onward travel. Then after a long search, in April 2007 we were lucky enough to find the perfect location for our operation in Nairobi.

Now we have an office with a guest house and camp together (WIldebeest Camp) set in beautiful gardens around two kilometres from the city centre. It is within easy walking distance from all essential ammenities like bank, ATM, forex, supermarket, cinema, markets as well as a host of places to eat and mingle with the locals.

Guests both inhouse and those staying at other hotels are welcome to come to our office to talk through their itinerary and discuss their holiday plans. Lynita and Alan live onsite and are both available in the office daily.

Alan & Lynita (& now Oliver too)
Having lived in Kenya since 2006, they have built an extensive knowledge of the local travel industry, favourite locations, great hotels, and fun things to do. They are well travelled and can offer you first hand advise based on their travel experiences.

Although born and bred in Australia, before moving to Nairobi, they had lived in the UK for five years. They were in the middle of an extensive backpacking holiday, when they arrived in Kenya, fell in love with the country and the people - and stayed!

Together they have travelled across four continents, staying in a range of backpackers, mid-range hotels and five star resorts. They know the fun and challenges of travelling independently to tough locations and know the things that make a holiday special and memorable.

Having people you can trust and relate to at your travel destination is perhaps even more important for a destination like East Africa. You might need someone who can help you solve your problems or just a friendly face to talk to.

Lynita has extensive experience working in various aspects of large hotels and Alan’s expertise lies in transport and operations - so they are a great match!
