You'll get to see crocodiles,it has archery as well and a picnic ground. All sites have their own fee tho!That is, you'll pay for them separately depending on where you want to visit.

It's a family-friendly spot to visit in Nairobi. We got to see quite a variety of animals, including tortoises and a pair of ostriches. But without a doubt, crocodiles steal the show, and with their numbers, it’s easy to see why the place is named after them. At the center of it all is a small lake or dam, giving the sanctuary a calm, natural feel. Head-up: Carry your own food or snacks if you'll be here for a while; I didn’t spot any operational restaurant or shop inside.

I loved loved this place. The best for picnics actually, the environment is so beautiful, I went there with a group of learners and we loved the experience. The guide who took us to see the crocodiles and tortoises was so knowledgeable. We felt like the place should have a restaurant in case one gets hungry?Even better is that they have shelters, so you could still have a great time when the weather is rainy

We visited Mamba Crocodile Village in Nairobi and had a fantastic time—definitely a hidden gem! We bought our tickets at the entrance with no hassle, and a friendly staff member guided us around, giving us an up-close look at the crocodiles and even the ostriches. It’s a very underrated spot that doesn’t get the attention it deserves. While the property could use a bit of upgrading, the experience itself was memorable and well worth it. I’d highly recommend it to anyone in Nairobi with an hour or two to spare—great for families or anyone looking for something a bit different.

It's a good place for picnics but not fun activities. Entrance fee at 200 shillings for adult citizen. The archery was good, 2k per session, boat riding across Africa, they offer horse riding, they've got quite a number of crocodiles and there's an ostrich on site. I give it a 2
