Entry fees for non-resident children are approximately $22 USD and adults $43 USD, paid via M-Pesa or credit card kiosks at the gate. The park opens daily at 6am and closes at 6pm; morning game drives between 6-9am offer the best wildlife sightings including lions, rhinos, giraffes, and zebras. Children under 5 will find the long stretches between animals frustrating — this experience is best suited for school-age kids with genuine wildlife interest. Bring snacks, sunscreen, and water as the small kiosk near the gate has limited supplies. A private vehicle or hired tour van is essential as there is no public transport within the park and you cannot exit your car in most zones.
