"The great affair is to move, to feel the needs

and hitches of life more nearly, to come down

off this featherbed of civilisation and find

the globe granite under foot"

Robert Louis Stevenson

'Wandering Nomads' is fundamentally a cooperative. It has been set up with the intention of paving the way for the indigenous people of the Lake Turkana district to benefit directly from the passage of a few visitors through their territory. At the same time it will provide those visitors who possibly would otherwise be unable to afford such an expedition the opportunity to do so independently and relatively cheaply by removing the middle man (i.e. the tour operator).

What we can offer you?

a) A means of transport to take you up country i.e. out of Nairobi and up to your preferred setting off point.

b) Assistance in arranging local lodging to stay during the interim.

c) Necessary advice regarding itinerary and suitable routes.

d) Provision of equipment and food stuffs required for your trek.

e) Contacts with the local nomadic people who will provide you with safe passage in terms of supplying the necessary pack animals, drivers and guides.

It will be entirely up to you how much you wish us to become involved in your trip. We can solely provide you with advice and contact names before you set out and let you do the rest. Or we can accompany you the whole way.

It's your journey, it's your choice.
