Gamewatchers Safaris
Gamewatchers Safaris is one of the longest established safari outfitters based in East Africa. We can offer you very competitive rates at all the leading safari camps and lodges in Kenya and elsewhere in Africa. See our list of camps and lodges in Kenya with our prices inclusive of all the costs, so there are no “hidden extras”. You book your international flight to Africa and from our base in Nairobi we take care of everything else for you, from arrival to departure. In addition to Kenya we arrange trips to all the leading destinations in Africa.
Porini Safari Camps
We also own and manage the award winning, eco-friendly Porini Camps. These Camps are situated within exclusive wildlife conservancies in Selenkay, Laikipia and the Masai Mara. Each of our Porini Camps offers an intimate safari experience in this pristine natural habitat (away from the crowds of tourists in minibuses!) and our Rhino River Camp in Meru is great to combine with Porini Camps as part of a twin or multi-centre tour of Kenya.
A Porini safari is the ideal safari for the true wildlife enthusiast who wishes to get close to nature to enjoy an undisturbed personal adventure with knowledgeable and qualified safari guides, with day and night game drives in specially-adapted open-sided 4×4 safari vehicles and with the benefit of escorted nature walks with our Masai guides to get closer to the flora and fauna.
When you visit any of the Porini Camps, you are directly supporting the country’s biodiversity— and Kenya is one of the leading African countries in making efforts to achieve success in the conservation of the iconic African wildlife and the natural environment.
All the Porini Camps (excluding the new Giraffe Camp) have received Gold Eco-certification ratings from Eco Tourism Kenya. These Gold Eco-Ratings are the highest level awarded by Eco Tourism Kenya and reflects the commitment of Gamewatchers Safaris and Porini Camps to the highest standards of excellence in environmental and social practices, including eco-friendly operations, conservation efforts, and positive impacts on local communities.

Rachel resides on the vibrant West Coast of Canada, specifically on Vancouver Island. She has a profound love for travel, having explored nearly 30 countries. However, it was a solo journey to Africa that truly ignited her passion. Upon stepping foot in Botswana for the first time, Rachel was captivated and knew she needed to explore more of the continent. Since then, she has ventured solo to Zimbabwe, Zambia, Mauritius, South Africa, Uganda, and Kenya, where she traveled with Gamewatchers Safaris and Porini Camps.
It was during these experiences that Rachel realized her desire to be a part of the Gamewatchers team.
