We stayed at Finch Hatton as part of a safari with Glorious Safaris. Our driver, Patrick, told us we were off to the best lodge in Tsavo and he was right. We were greeted with a cool towel and a drink that looked like brandy but thankfully tasted like apple juice. We were given 2 warning, don't walk alone after... more

to see the area as I have never been to this part of Tsavo it's a very lovely area lush with foliage. Full of elephant but all we saw were signs from there rescent meals giraffe, zebra, monkeys, Impala, dik dik and many others, Upon returning to our tent, we were treated to the sound and sight of a couple... more

After reading all these positive amazing reviews I wonder why we had such a different experience. I agree, the camp and the tents were fantastic. We loved relaxing out on our deck watching the animals and birds or just relaxing with a book. However, the game drives were so tremendously boring. Maybe we had bad luck and had a bad... more

I booked this safari with Let's Go Travel in Nairobi (my agent is Henry and I've used him for several years). I have to say that I believe Finch Hattons to be horribly underrated and I do think it's one of the best kept secrets in the Tsavo. At the time I visited Finch Hattons, I was actually living right... more

No wonder Finch Hatton put his roots down at this breathtaking place. Having been to Kenya several times, I had stayed in tented camps before but this place absolutely blew my mind. It's the old Africa, the genteel Africa, the Africa everyone thinks about when they watch films like Born Free and Out of Africa. From the outset, the surroundings... more

We went on Virgin's Out of Africa safari and stayed at Finch Hattons for 3 nights from 9 - 12 September. We had read about the camp beforehand and had high expectations and we were definitely not disappointed. Following the advice in previous reviews, when we booked we requested tent 7 overlooking the hippo pool. It was fascinating watching the... more

We stopped here in June 2007. My wife chose it as she had always wanted to stop here. I was a bit concerned that she had hyped it up that much, that we would be disappointed. We weren't. This place is excellent. The tents are very comfortable and the surroundings are something else. We were sent to sleep every night... more

My wife and I spent two nights here as part of our Tsavo in Style Safari. The first two nights were spent in Galdessa Camp, East Tsavo, see seperate review. Arrived her on our Ruby Anniversary and again truly appreciated the trouble that had been taken on our behalf. We were allocated Tent 3, overlooking its own private pool and... more

We were transfered to Finch Hattons due to overbooking at Tortillas in Amboseli. Booked with Somak via Ebright Travel. We were needless to say not happy about the last minute changes to our itn.(upon arrival in Nairobi) but found Finch Hattons to be a very nice camp. Staff were accomodating and camp itself is nice. We stayed right on the... more
