Need to hire sleeping bags for a climb, a safari or a school trip? Kifaru Kampers offers sleeping bag rental in Nairobi, together with everything else for a good night's sleep outdoors: foam and self-inflating mattresses, camp cots and pillows. Rent one bag for a weekend or a hundred for a whole school, and we'll have them ready for collection or delivery.
Why rent sleeping bags instead of buying?
- Right bag for the trip: a light bag for Naivasha in the dry season, and a warmer bag for the Aberdares or Mount Kenya.
- Lower cost: renting is far cheaper than buying for occasional trips or for big groups.
- No storage: no bulky bags taking up cupboard space between trips.
- Bulk availability: rent sleeping bags for a whole class, team or tour group in a single order.

Choosing the right sleeping bag for Kenya
Kenya is warm by day, but nights at altitude get cold. Here is a rough guide to night temperatures (they vary by season):
| Destination | Typical nights | What to rent |
|---|---|---|
| Coast, Tsavo, Amboseli | Mild to warm | Light sleeping bag or a bag used as a blanket |
| Lake Naivasha, Hell's Gate, Maasai Mara | Cool, often around 10°C | Standard sleeping bag and a foam or self-inflating mattress |
| Ngong Hills, Mount Longonot, Laikipia | Cold | Warm sleeping bag, mattress and a fleece pillow |
| Aberdares, Mount Kenya | Near or below freezing | Warmest sleeping bag, an insulated mattress or camp cot, and warm layers |
Clean, checked sleeping bags
Every sleeping bag we rent is cleaned and checked before it goes out again. For extra comfort and hygiene, many customers bring their own sleeping-bag liner or a cotton sheet.
