Shompole is a safari experience of remarkable culture and wildlife, where after an exciting day guests can watch the changing colors of the African sky as the dust settles and the air cools.

EXPERIENCE

Shompole is located in a private conservancy on the edge of the Nguruman Escarpment in Southern Kenya, overlooking the vast plains and volcanic hills of the Great Rift Valley. Water is a main feature Shompole, flowing through each room and collecting in private cool pools where one can peacefully enjoy the expanse that stretches to the horizon.

Each room, designed to harness the colors and textures of the surrounding natural landscape, combines a variety of white quarts stone, pale thatch fig-wood and smooth white walls that give the rooms both a unique contemporary style and a touch of the African bush.

A refreshing breakfast on the plains or on the shade of the fig forest makes a perfect end to a morning guided bushwalk. Or enjoy a drink on the open plains, after a night drive, where guests can watch the ever changing colors of the African sky.

Being located in a private conservancy, Shompole is able to offer guests the chance to enjoy the local flora and fauna on foot with the added benefit of an experienced guide, who is there to enlighten guests. Game-viewing in the conservancy can also take place in a specially-modified safari vehicle and can often be very rewarding. Night drives also present a great opportunity to see some of the rarer animals such as aardwolf, bat-eared fox and honey-badger.
