New colorful safari itinerary addition available in both hemispheres.

By Gareth Roberts


The Lily Pond on the equator, in the foothills of Mount Kenya is an exciting new Arts Centre, offering provoking african art, gifts and healthy lunches - which makes an unmatchable special break on a Kenyan safari itinerary.

This new arts centre is situated just off the main Nanyuki "Nairobi highway route into Samburu National Park, Ol Pejeta Conservancy (Sweetwaters), Meru National Park and Mount Kenya Safari Club and therefore makes an ideal break on the Kenyan safari trail.

Safari guests can also enjoy a good lunch on a deck, overlooking a large lily pond.

The restaurant chefs prepare lunches, taking fresh herbs them directly from their own herb garden and onto your lunch plate.

With the great Mount Kenya as a backdrop, you can also enjoy watching the white egret, hunting the frogs in the pond!

The Lily Pond is web savvy, with fast, free, Wi-Fi in this gorgeous and tranquil environment.

What Kenyan safari holidays guests find fantastic is that the equator slices clean through the middle of the Lily Pond restaurant deck. This suggests that they you begin with a good main course in the Southern Hemisphere, and finish with a sumptuous desert in the Northern Hemisphere!

The new Arts Centre is a family favorite for Nanyuki lunches, with the signature dish being Karibu Kenya - a local meat stew with mukimo, green gram curry and kachubari and chapatis naturally. Leave room for a desert as the Lily Pond locally produced strawberries, served with thick cream are to die for. All washed down naturally with a Kenyan Tusker or Malt.

With the great Mount Kenya Mountain as a background, lunch visitors can also like watching the white egret, hunting the frogs in the pond!

What Kenyan safari guests find extraordinary is that the equator slices clean through the middle of this Arts Centre. This indicates that you can view inspiring African art in both the Southern Hemisphere and the North Hemisphere!

This new Arts Centre in Nanyuki, has just installed a new equator sculpture, the Wish Globe, which is installed exactly at 0000000. Everybody writes down their wishes and then hangs them onto the "Wish Globe".

Did you know that objects move in different directions in the North and Southern hemispheres of the Equator? You can test the Coriolis effect at the Lily Pond Arts Centre, which is precisely on the Equator in Nanyuki.

The Arts Centre is also a rare chance to buy special hand- made gifts such as beaded sandals, recycled flip flop toys, African masks, Glass chimes, kenyan metal geckos and lots more peculiar African gift ideas.
