Practical Q&A

How much is Shimba Hills National Reserve?

KWS 'Scenic' tier: non-residents USD 50 adult / 25 child; East African citizens KES 500/250; Kenya residents KES 675/350 (per day). Payment via KWSpay (no cash at gate). It's ~1 hr from Diani — an easy safari from the beach, and the only place in Kenya with sable antelope.
