Just 110km west
of the coastal towns of Malindi and Watamu, only 2 hours drive
away, are Galana and Kulalu Ranches deep in the heart of Kenya's
bush land on 1.4 million acres of pristine Africa. This huge Ranch
has an unfenced border with Tsavo East National Park. Kulalu Camp
sits high on the banks of the Galana River. The camp consists
of four large tents, all with twin/double beds and ensuite bathrooms
with stunning views of the river and the Lali Hills.

A semi-permanent
makuti (reed thatch) mess provides a safe and comfortable place
to quietly watch the game activity along the river bank or while
away the hot afternoons with a cool drink and a book. At meal
times Justus our exceptional bush chef transforms the mess into
a haven of culinary delight. A mixture of the traditional country
farm house produce with roasted meat or game and soups to a Mediterranean
influence picked up from his days as chef at the coast. All the
more incredible considering it is all prepared in a traditionally
styled mobile camp kitchen using a safari oven (a large metal
box buried in a larger pile of glowing embers).

Game viewing
on Galana Ranch can be very rewarding with a chance to see Elephant,
buffalo, lion and many different species of Plains Game. If you
are lucky, cheetah, leopard or even the rare cape hunting dog
can be seen. The bird watching is of world renown, and when coupled
with the stunning views, this large expanses of Africa gives a
beautiful back drop to an African sunset.
