On a safari, should I pack a tent for the ground or one for the roof?

Sleeping in a rooftop tent epitomizes the camping safari dream for a lot of individuals. A ground tent, on the other hand, has its benefits as well. Your decision as to whether or not a rooftop tent is ideal will depend on the following details:

The Benefits and Drawbacks of a Rooftop Tent

If you want to avoid sleeping on the ground, a rooftop tent is your best bet. For campsites with uneven ground, damp soil, or rocky terrain, this is a lifesaver. In remote wilderness locations, people often choose to pitch their tents on rooftops rather than on the ground. This is because, at night, they are able to more effectively separate themselves from any potential predators. While for a ground tent with its zipper fastened will keep you just as safe. While we do acknowledge that the element of feeling secure is relevant here…

Benefits of using a rooftop tent while camping in Kenya:

If you camp inside a game park, you feel safer, which is debatable. However, these days you may find many picturesque campsites outside of the safari parks on privately owned grounds.

Tents on rooftops are really easy to set up in no time at all, and ground tents are just as rapid.

Cons of Using rooftop tents when Camping in Kenya:

Before getting in your vehicle, make sure to cover your rooftop tent.

A ground tent is less expensive to hire than a rooftop tent.

What is your level of movement like? Some people may feel awkward using the stepladder to access a rooftop tent, especially if they are rather rigid.

Camping in Kenya is sure to be an adventure you won’t soon forget, whether you opt for a ground tent or a rooftop tent!

How to pack for Kenya Camping Safari?

Are you unsure of what to bring on your Kenyan camping trip? We suggest that you have in mind the following:

Bring sunscreen and bug repellent (DEET is the best option), as these are more costly in Kenya.
In the evenings, the highlands get colder, so pack a fleece jumper or vest.

You will need to bring your own USB and audio cords, but your rental car in Kenya has a cigar lighter to power your gadgets.

When you go camping frequently, a power bank is useful.

Listening to audiobooks while resting in your tent, sitting around a campfire, or taking long trips is also a lot of fun (try a thriller!).

If you want to learn a few Swahili words, the Rough Guide Swahili Phrasebook is a terrific resource that the locals will love.

Have you forgotten something? You may purchase nearly anything you need at the numerous well-stocked supermarkets and pharmacies found in Kenya’s cities and larger towns.

Are there a lot of campsites in Kenya?

In Kenya’s national parks, lodges can be highly costly. Therefore, camping might be a fantastic substitute for both adventurous and low-budget travelers.

There are many different types of campsites across the nation, from private campsites run by lodge owners to simple bush camping inside the parks. The latter choice offers safe locations with nice features like a dining establishment, a common fireplace. Additionally, Kenya’s warm climate makes camping possible all year round.

We strongly advise utilizing the free software iOverlander, which plots and reviews every campsite, when searching for a campground or inexpensive guesthouse in Kenya.

Should I reserve campsites ahead of time in Kenya?

When camping in Kenya, you can enjoy the freedom of not having to reserve your camping spots ahead of time. You can acquire your camping permit at the gate upon your arrival. Every national park features multiple public campsites, and you will be allocated one upon your arrival at the park entrance.
