Aflevering 99, Shompole Wilderness, an untouched paradise in Kenya

MIJN AFRIKA | MIJN WILDLIFE

Do you like the land of big open spaces? And have you ever heard of the Shompole Conservancy in Kenya? Probably not!  This is one of the very best kept Safari Secrets in the heart of Maasai land of the South Rift valley not to far from the Tanzanian border. 

Set on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro river and close to the beautiful Lake Magadi and Lake Natron filled with flamingo's you will find Shompole Wlderness Camp.

Meet the owners Johann and Samantha Du Toit who followed their dream and opened this little gem with only 6 very authentic safaritents in 2015. 

The region they live in with their 2 children is hot and dry but is also an epic place to go on safari. With 21 species of carnivores and 450 species of birds this is heaven on earth. 

Johann and Samantha are sharing their life story of this very unique place in Africa which is also known as a one of the best playground for kids of all ages. 

Do you want to know all about walking with a family of habituated baboons who have been studied here for many years or do you want to go kayaking or tubing the wild river? Then enjoy listening to this episode and start making plans to go and stay at Shompole Wilderness!
