What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Tsavo National Parks charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entryThe non-resident rate, and East and West are ticketed separately.
- $80per person, per day
- VehicleKSh 600 a day for a typical hire car, roughly $5.
- $5per vehicle, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $495 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
A combination ticket covering both parks saves about $35 over two single tickets.

Every figure on this page is in US dollars.
Indicative 2026 rates gathered in July 2026 from operators' own rate cards and the official KWS tariffs. Watch the pricing basis: most Tsavo camps quote per person per night sharing, while Serena, the KWS guest houses and the self-catering bandas quote per room or per unit, so two sets of numbers are not directly comparable. KWS conservation fees are extra almost everywhere at $80 per adult per park per day, plus KSh 600 for a car under six seats.
Questions about Manyatta Camp
Is Manyatta Camp good for families?
We found no minimum age or child policy for Manyatta Camp on the shared Voi Wildlife Lodge site. Its own tents are private, each with a plunge pool, which suits couples and small groups more obviously than large families, and the record does not confirm interconnecting rooms. Ask the Voi Wildlife Lodge group directly before booking with children.
How much does it cost to stay at Manyatta Camp?
Manyatta Camp has no published rate card; quotes come per person through the Voi Wildlife Lodge group, which also handles transfers from Voi. It sits a kilometre from the Voi Park airstrip and eight kilometres off the main highway near Voi Gate, so ask whether transfers are included in your quote.
Is Manyatta Camp good for a honeymoon?
Manyatta Camp does not publish a honeymoon package, but every one of its 24 to 25 tents has its own private plunge pool, and the camp is small and set on the Voi River with long views to the Kasigau, Sagalla and Mwakingali hills. The elevated Twiga restaurant adds a private-feeling base for dinner.
What does the rate at Manyatta Camp include?
Manyatta Camp publishes no itemised rate; the Voi Wildlife Lodge group, which also runs the camp, quotes per person and handles transfers from Voi as part of its service. There is no separate website for Manyatta beyond the shared Voi Wildlife Lodge site, so confirm meals, drinks and park fees directly with the group.
