If you’ve been itching for a quick escape that doesn’t require a flight or a whole week off, Nkasiri Adventure Park in Kitengela, along Acacia Road, might just be calling your name. It’s close enough for a spontaneous staycation, yet far enough to feel like you’ve slipped into another world.

And honestly? The way they’ve named their glamping pods after the sun, stars, and moon is pure genius; a little reminder that no matter where you are, the sky is always watching over you.

All this is now bookable on KenyaBuzz Experiences! The Full Board (Double) rates for the Sun, Star, and Moon Pods are Ksh 15,000, Ksh 14,000, and Ksh 10,000, respectively. There are also flexible pricing options for single, twin, and other package variations, so you can pick what suits your vibe and budget. Here’s what each of the pods offers: The Glamping Sun Pods are all about space and comfort; super kingsize pallet beds, ensuite bathrooms, and enough room for up to three people if you don’t mind a cozy setup.

Then there are the Glamping Star Pods, a bit more intimate, perfect for couples or solo travelers who love a comfy king bed and a private washroom.

For those who really want that earthy, outdoorsy vibe, the Glamping Moon Pods deliver a true rustic feel: wooden tents, a queen mattress on the floor, and washrooms just outside.

But let’s be honest, you won’t just be lying around your pod all day. Nkasiri is packed with activities that you can do while you enjoy your stay! From high ropes and ziplining to paintball, archery, and team-building games, there’s no shortage of ways to get your adrenaline up before unwinding under the stars. You can book it all hassle-free, right from the comfort of your home, through KenyaBuzz Experiences.

So whether you’re planning a girls’ getaway, a romantic weekend, or a solo escape, Glamping at Nkasiri Adventure Park is the kind of experience that reminds you life’s better with a little nature, laughter, and just the right amount of comfort.
