Mission Statement
Karibuni Eco-Cottages are a community-based tourism initiative established in 2009 by Team Kenya. The project offers visitors the chance to experience life in a traditional Kenyan village in an ethical and sustainable way. It is a 'hotel' and restaurant, which provides accommodation for individuals, groups and volunteers. Karibuni is also a community resource for sustainable development addressing problems such as climate change and lack of food security, and provides a venue for community groups to meet, hold workshops and carry out other activities and training.
Description
Karibuni Eco-Cottages are situated in Ndhiwa, a rural community in the gorgeous Nyanza region of Western Kenya. They are within reach of Lake Victoria and can be used as a base from which to explore more of Kenya. Volunteers can experience the real Kenya, while making a huge difference in the local community.
