Understanding Park Entry Fees in Kenya – Full Guide

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.
