Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Mid-range lodges offer comfortable accommodations with essential amenities like en-suite bathrooms, hot water, quality meals, and often swimming pools. The main differences from luxury lodges are room size, thread count, gourmet dining options, and exclusive experiences like private vehicles. You’ll still enjoy excellent game viewing—the wildlife doesn’t know the difference!

Policies vary by lodge. Some include 2 game drives per day in their rates (full board plus), while others charge separately. We recommend lodges with inclusive packages for the best value. All our featured lodges have experienced, licensed guides who know the best spots for wildlife.

Typical amenities include: en-suite bathrooms with hot showers, comfortable beds with mosquito nets, restaurant serving quality meals, bar/lounge area, WiFi in common areas, charging points for devices, and often a swimming pool. Some also offer spa services, gift shops, and cultural activities.

Absolutely! Many mid-range lodges welcome families and offer family rooms or connecting tents. Some have special kids’ programs, nature walks, and child-friendly menus. We recommend lodges with pools for keeping children entertained between game drives. Always confirm age policies as some lodges have minimum age requirements for game drives.

Peak Season (July-October): Great Migration river crossings, dry weather, higher rates.
Shoulder Season (June, November): Good wildlife, better rates, fewer crowds.
Green Season (April-May): Lush landscapes, newborn animals, best rates (up to 30% off).
Mid-range lodges offer excellent value year-round with seasonal discounts.

Options include: Road transfer from Nairobi (5-6 hours, scenic route through the Rift Valley), Domestic flight to various Mara airstrips (45 mins, $180-280), or Scheduled shuttles that many lodges arrange. Most mid-range lodges include airstrip transfers in their packages or offer them at reasonable rates.
