  • Description

    Description

    We are a Kenyan family of four: George, Debby, our 9-year-old daughter Delsey, and our 3-year-old son Eddy. Both born and raised in Kenya, we own and operate a licensed travel company based here.

    Our home is located in the developing suburbs of Athi River, about 34 kilometers from the Nairobi city center. While the area is situated 2 kilometers off Mombasa Road and can be a bit dusty, it's a welcoming place to stay. For your convenience, we have a car available that you are welcome to fuel and use for personal errands.
