Park entry fees are a major consideration when planning a safari in Kenya. Whether you’re visiting Nairobi National Park for a day trip or exploring the expansive Masai Mara or Amboseli for several days, knowing what you’ll pay in advance helps with smart planning. At Cruzeiro Safaris Kenya, we always include park fees transparently in our tour packages — here’s what you need to know.
What Are Kenya Park Entry Fees?
Park entry fees are charges levied by the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) or county authorities to support wildlife conservation and park infrastructure. Fees are charged per person, per day, and vary depending on nationality and the park’s category.
Every visitor pays a park entry fee — part of protecting Kenya’s wildlife heritage
Typical Park Fee Ranges (2024–2025)
- Nairobi National Park: $40–$100 per adult non-resident
- Masai Mara National Reserve: $70–$200 per adult non-resident
- Amboseli National Park: $60–$100 per adult non-resident
- Lake Nakuru National Park: $60–$80 per adult non-resident
- Ol Pejeta Conservancy: $85–$110 per adult non-resident
Park fees for children and residents (citizens and East Africans) are significantly lower.
What’s Included in Cruzeiro Safaris Packages?
Unlike many third-party platforms, Cruzeiro Safaris Kenya includes park entry fees in most of our listed tour prices. That means no hidden charges and smoother park access with pre-booked permits.
We handle all your park permits in advance so you can focus on enjoying the wildlife
️ Why Are Fees Higher in Some Parks?
Masai Mara, Nairobi NP, and private conservancies like Ol Pejeta have higher conservation costs, tighter capacity rules, and more infrastructure to maintain. Fees also fund ranger patrols and anti-poaching initiatives.
