This is so different to the usual wildlife one comes to associate with Kenya. The smaller animals need as much help and understanding as the "Big Five". We were shown around by a very helpful young lady Vet from France and one of the local keepers. The "monkey bridges" across the main road are an inspiration - we actually saw... More

This is not a safari. This is a place where you can learn about the monkeys in the area. How they live, what are the threats for them etc. With a small fee you get a tour around the trust and see what the trust is all about. Also there is a small nature trail. If you have the time... More

We are lucky at Asha Cottage to have the good fortune of having a troupe of 7 (the new baby included) Colobus monkeys as fairly frequent visitors/residents.

the whole colobus team are doing a remarkable job.nice nature trail and the information centre is excellent.it is worth a visit and if one have time you can volunteer.

You are given a tour of the site, including an interactive room great for... More

The best local institution protecting monkey safety and wildlife in general

Don't expect a wildlife trip. This is an opportunity to visit a local charity that is doing some great and innovative work to help protect the local colubus monkey population in an area of diminishing environment and to get an insight into their rehabilitation of orphans for release back into the wild. The guide was very infromative and was able... More
