Can you please tell me about expectations in terms of hours volunteering during the day and how many days a week. I am interested in as many safaris I can do as well as volunteering.

We want to confirm that we have an opportunity available to gain experience working with many different wildlife species found in Kenya's parks and to learn skills such as handling techniques, cleaning cages and sterilization procedures, habitat enrichment, diets, food preparation and feeding methods, and to assist experienced rehab staff with treatment of diseases procedures. Volunteers are placed at Kenya Wildlife service(KWS). All volunteers are hosted by a friendly host family near KWS, no daily transport required. You will have hands on veterinary work as well as feeding/cleaning/taking care of animals.

I am looking for a internship for my school. I am just finishing a BS degree in wildlife conservation. This program looks interesting. I have been to Kenya twice and it's a beautiful country. I will be taking other classes during this time and wondering what is the availability of internet and such as I will have other homework and studies I will need to be doing while I am there.

We want to confirm availailbity of placement to Volunteer with Wildlife Animals in Kenya from beginning of October as per your request. The Procedure:- Write your application letter requesting for Internship addressing to :- THE DIRECTOR KENYA WILDLIFE SERVICE(KWS) NAIROBI

Gracepatt Ecotours Kenya was the perfect choice for us. After doing a group tour in southern Africa the previous year we realised that this time we wanted to maximise the time spent in the national parks with the animals so Kenya was perfect. I was looking for a longer trip, around 3 weeks, that was packed with safari days. There were only a few companies I could find doing longer trips that included Tsavo N.P. We wanted to go to Tanzania as part of the trip, specifically the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. I found Gracepatt on Tourradar as they had a perfect trip listed. We had amazing communication and flexibility when booking, allowing me to get my dream trip to everywhere I wanted to go for a suitable budget and timeframe. Sam at Gracepatt will make sure your trip is exactly what you want, you won’t just be another booking as you will be with some other companies. We also contacted a larger company who were too pushy to get the sale, only focusing on telling us how many reviews they had. We had separate guides and vehicles in Kenya and Tanzania but we had a great time in both. Our guides were both very experienced, friendly and professional (and we had a really great time with them). Thanks to the knowledge and networking of our guides, the overload of animals we saw made sure that our cameras were never put away. We will go back for another trip in a few years and we will talk to Gracepatt Ecotours Kenya because they listened to what we wanted and we trust them to deliver a great trip.Show more

We had the adventure of a lifetime on our safari through Kenya, organized by Grace at Gracepatt Ecotours Kenya from start to finish, everything was exceptionally well planned. The logistics ran smoothly, our accommodations were comfortable and well-located, and the food exceeded our expectations throughout the trip. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights about the wildlife, landscapes, and local cultures. Their expertise and friendly approach made the experience even more enjoyable—and we always felt safe and well cared for. This trip was truly unforgettable, and we’re so grateful to Grace and the entire Gracepatt Team for making it such a seamless and enriching journey. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to explore Kenya!Show more
