Our BEST Trip in Kenya to this Day / Luxury Glamping in the African Wilderness
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 03. 2021
- Welcome to another Kenya Travel Vlog. This week we bring you along as we visit the Sirikoi Lodge located in the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, Kenya, Africa.
This glamping experience is everything you would expect and more from a luxury safari camp. The Sirikoi Lodge offers one of the most personalized safari experience we have ever seen. From true Canadian maple syrup during our bush breakfast to homemade poutine during our romantic dinner, the staff went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time ever. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED on that!
Also, can we take a minute and appreciate the fact that Sirikoi Lodge uses the Land Rover Defender as their safari vehicle. Those Defenders definitely made our Kenyan safaris even better.
We have to say, this has been our best safari experience in Kenya to this date. Obviously this luxury safari camp comes with an eftie price tag.
Resident Rate:
Ksh 26,000 to 46,990 per adult sharing per night for. luxury Tente. (Sirikoi Cottage and Sirikoi House also available for an additional price)
For non-resident rates and other enquiries please please contact Sirikoi Lodge directly.

Just in case you want to see our second favorite spot ever... here it is haha czcams.com/video/iX8wXMfQSsY/video.html
There is lewa marathon,running through the wild with animals.very dope👌
Actually, there are dozens of places in northen kenya that are equally as good .
Saruni Samburu, Saruni Rhino, Saruni Wild, loisaba, Loisaba Tented Camp, Loisaba star beds, Sasaab Lodge, Ol Donyo Lodge, Tassia Safari Lodge, sosian, Enasoit, Ol malo, Sabuk Lodge,
Segera Retreat, Kitich Forest Camp, Kuki Gallman retreat, and some more not even mentioned
You guys should visit samburu National reserve
Kenya makes South Africa look like child’s play with amount of wildlife and accessibility to parks as well as quality. Many people don’t understand this, I have been to both countries.
oh wow!
Yes,Its crazy Kenya has taken over the Africa of wildlife
sanctuary
Western travel advseries and lack of comparative infrastructure.
Thank you
Absolutely agree. Some parts of SA have become over-commercialized
Animals were never meant to locked up in zoos.. They look amazing in their natural habitats
Very true!
You got to love Kenya!!! Wow wow wow. I cannot get enough of this country. Giraffes, rhinos, elephants, deer, antelopes, zebras .....my goodness. THIS IS THE GARDEN OF EDEN PEOPLE!! What more can you ask for? Kenyans should really be proud of this gift from God and never take this for granted. I am glad they are taking good care of this wildlife.
they really are!
@Vansah Swift 3rd world term is no longer being used.. it's developing country

@@u-know-this ok
@Vansah Swift out of topic.. Talking about wildlife and tourism here😁🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️
Dave & Tracy the true Kenyan brand ambassadors. I live in Arizona but miss Kenya so much especially because some of Northern AZ looks like parts of Kenya (minus the amazing wildlife & people). "Africa beckons me back!" I hope you stay
we will for a bit yet :)
Ooh my gooddness!!! Can't believe it! I saw you guys at Lewa when I was heading to work (I work within Lewa) drove by past you, when you were on your game drive, but wasn't sure sure twas you until now.
Oh thats awesome! Lewa is wonderful! :)
Wachana na dave wewe,yuko na bibi 😂
😂😂👋
@@samkamoche 😂😂😂😂😂
Kept shouting Hemisphere everytime dave said atmosphere :D
French is his first language nonetheless but his English is quite good.
haha!
Haha...I missed that atmosphere part.
@@DaveMani Qubec Canada?
😀
This Sun rise reminds me the composition we were writing in class 4"I woke up early in the morning, when the sun was rising brightly up the hills,,, 😂😂😂😂
love it!
Iam sure that has bypassed the Manis
@@wawerukamuru exactly
😁
My highlight. I remember watching same but elsewhere the red crimson larger than a circle ⭕️ planet rise above the hillside. Initially no rays at all as if it’s teasing you then it gets brighter till you cannot sustain the brightness 🔆
Professional and excellent portrayal of the areas you visit. You are the best. Thank you so much. The empathy and respect you show to the locals you meet is beyond description. I hope other media platforms are learning from you. There is much more to show; not just politics, corruption and other negative issues. Highly appreciated.
True
wow thank you so much!!
Someone stop me from clicking next 😭I've literally binge watched all your videos. You guys make me so happy. Can't wait to do this with my person 💕 💗
You're the best!
The growth, ❤the quality, ❤the consistency ❤ it's everything for me..
Tracy is beautiful 💞💞💞💞
Thank you so so much Linda! Have a wonderful week.
Lol, I went to Maseno Uni and used to cross the equator every day going from my hostel to class, it was very anticlimactic
😂This was epic, loved it.
hahaha I know right! :P
For sure. :)
guys you are havin the time of your life,imagine waking up and seeing a girraffe wonder around your doorstep.....wow.....my land Kenya.💖
We are very lucky! ❤️
yes we are....nature😍💕👍👌.
by the way your short clip of canada was awesome.pliz do share vids of there sometimes,i saw the vid wen you worked out on your calories,it was 👍👍👍👌👌👌
Northern Kenya is very unique. Its just wild and untouched.
Its beautiful! :)
Your videos are fun to watch, especially since we love Kenya a lot. Just a little correction: the Equator “separates” the Northern from the Southern HEMISPHERE, not Atmosphere! Our two boys found that too funny a mistake!
You guys should try out the Lewa Marathon. Its amazing!!! Through the animals! I'm actually not surprised to see that cow. A while back, my driver was called to help this guy get his cows back from the bush. It turned out to be an operation to extract the cows from a herd of buffalos.
Oh interesting!!
Please visit Uganda and Rwanda, it will open our eyes to new frontiers and thus new travel possibilities 😊
we plan to!
Funny how I was literally looking at a picture I took of myself underneath the equator two years ago. Kenya is definitely calling me, my motherland.
such a great place!!
I'm planning my trips through you guys. I'm glad you're visiting the North finally. It's my favourite adventure space in Kenya.
Thats awesome! Im sure you'll love it.
Thanks for covering this place. I would have never known about it if it weren't for you :) You guys are not only great but have incredible content. keep it up :)
Just a filming tip, I think the experience of the viewer can be amplified if you took more b-roll shots especially when explaining stuff. Some of us (like me) are visual and can best feel your experience this way.
Thanks for that! :)
With this covid its still possible to visit this lovely place in the Northern Atmosphere 😅
Yes most things are still open here which is GREAT!!!
Ha ha! Where's that?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Atmosphere 😂😂😂the audacity bro 😂💔
🤣🤣🤣
I'm Kenyan but I've never gone to Lewa .thank you for showing us this part of the world.
its amazing there!
It's literally a tv show with you guys! 🔥🔥🔥♥️
thank you!
IDK whether to love or hate that your videos are 30 minutes long, cause I just found your channel and I'm binging every one of your videos and its eating up my time. Cheers guys, you have awesome content.
Haha love it! Thanks :)
hahah..that editing when your guide took a bite of the pancake with the maple syrup ....good job guys!
Hahaha thanks!
Doing a marathon of all the videos I haven't watched for the past one month......
thats awesome!!
This video made me nostalgic for delicious pancakes I had in Toronto six years ago and for Lewa which I haven't visited in two years.
they are good!
You guys are really living life man! I'm happy for the two of you! Kenya my motherland is probably the best place one can be especially if you have just a good source of income.
it really is great here!
God is good. This is such an amazing country, I am Kenyan & every Sunday about this time I am treated to a Magical Escape. Since I began on this journey, this by far has to be the best destination.
The mani's, The guide & The Maple Syrup all deserve Oscars for the starring roles 😂😂
I mean this video is just out of this world. In an era where depression, loneliness, suicide are so common, God bless you guys!! cause your stories are God's way of making me have the will to go on. On top that the stories make me really happy.
wow thank you so much!! this place and this video is definitely our favorite!
Kenya is gorgeous 💗 is like huge amounts of land is allocated to animals, waiting for your Ambosseli trip..
Can't wait!
My days are made of such vlogs 😍🤗
amazing :)
You are definitely living the dream , and thankyou for letting us join you on the amazing adventures your having , you are showcasing Kenya 🇰🇪 in such a beautiful way , so thankyou, 👏🏻, and that’s from someone that was born in the Great Rift Valley district of Kenya.🙏
Our pleasure! :)
Speechless this video gets 10/10 true Ambassadors at heart.
thank you so much!
Finally you guys went to Lewa!!! That's my home, I mean near my home.
It was AMAZING!!!
hahahah the maple syrup edit after he took a bite ... took me out
haha I thought it would be funny to add this :P
I loved how you took us to Canada with Peter.
Just found your channel yesterday or so, and have been binge watching your Kenya vids...love you guys!
Thanks for subbing!
The quality of your videos is just amazing.
Wow, thank you!

Best yet. Love your work making me very homesick. You are doing a wonderful job for Kenya and once this Covid is under control we will be back home. Don't forget to visit Karunguru Coffee when you have time. Best coffee in the world trees planets by my father from 1920 onwards. I am following you on Facebook as well. All the best John Glassford.

The golden sunrise is everything for me. Great video
Thank you Simon!
Another awesome job guys. Never take for granted what you are doing, enjoy every day. Would so love to be in your shoes. For the best sunrise cant wait to see you guys do a sunrise balloon flight over the masai mara and then land to a champagne breakfast on the mara with all the wildlife around you. If you see Milton one of the pilots from NZ say hi.
thank you so much!!
the sunrise...I live for such moments
Yes it was amazing!!!
Visited Lewa 7 years ago, must say it’s the best game drives have so far. You make me want to go back considering it’s so close to Meru my home.

This looks like the best place you have been to so far in Kenya. I would like to see you visit Amboseli National Park at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro - I'm planning on doing a weekend trip there in the next few weeks
You will love Amboseli. The elephants there are out of the Garden of Eden.
Sounds great!

Are you around Mt. Kenya.
Are you eating Ugali., and Nyma.

Let me tell one real my experience.
I used to work for Masai Mara.
With Governments camp. I enter
My tent, go to sleep and few minutes
There was a hissing sound. I took my
Lantern and start looking under the bed, I thought them was a mamba snake. But nothing. Again I sleep and
The hissing sound started. I again
Started checking. Then I thought
there is something out of the tent.
When I open the tent. It was
Scary . Wow. You want believe me
I was in between the elephants ass.
The noice was elephants tail was swiping above the tent.I loved Masai
Mara. I loved my kenya.
Be safe enjoy your Safari
