About us

Netherken, a combination of 'Netherlands' and 'Kenya', was started because we are already involved in providing our hospitality services by managing Mikindani Sunset Lodge and Jacyjoka Apartments & Restaurant.

Because you book your safari holiday and your apartment in Mombasa directly with us; without intermediaries! We are also your point of contact in the Netherlands and Kenya from the first contact. We have years of experience with offering safaris in Kenya, and we can offer you a tailor-made safari holiday.Let us know your wishes and dreams and together we can assemble the best combination of day trips and activities in Kenya.

We work closely with our selected partners in Kenya. They know the country like no other and will propagate our standard for a unique holiday from start to finish. 

We are Janet and Ton, a Kenyan-Dutch couple who met each other in Kenya in 2008. Janet already owned a hotel in Mombasa, Mikindani Sunset Lodge, and Jacyjoka Apartments & Restaurant in Nyali, Mombasa. Together we decided to expand our tourism business in Kenya in order to make sure we had a good income for the future and to be able to feel at home in both Kenya and the Netherlands. The expansion consisted of increasing the capacity of Jacyjoka from 6 to 12 apartments, and adding a swimming pool and a restaurant, all in a beautiful garden.

Furthermore, the expansion consisted of the establishment of Butterfly4Volunteers, a volunteer and internship mediation company operating from the office of Jacyjoka. Last but not least, we created Netherken Safaris & Tours.
