Elephant Bedroom Camp

This small and exclusive, luxury safari camp is located within the Samburu National Reserve right on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River. Herds of elephants are regular visitors around and inside the camp as its not fenced. Free Wi-Fi is available in public areas. The 14 spacious tents have rustic and colourful African touches, offering all the comforts; including a private plunge pool on the deck, hot and cold running water, electricity (and complimentary herbal shower and bath products.)​. The lounge and dining area is decorated with vibrant safari style, its soft intimate lighting assuring that this is the ultimate place to relax in between exciting game drives.

Breakfast and lunch are served ‘al fresco’ on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River under the shade of the trees (weather permitting). Dining is a culinary experience with three-course lunch and five-course, candlelit dinner. Private meals can be arranged on the guest tent veranda or under the stars.

Samburu, Buffalo Springs & Shaba

The Samburu Reserve covers 104 square kilometers on the northern bank of Ewaso Ng’iro River, the adjoining Buffalo Springs Reserve of 194 square kilometers lies on the southern bank of the same river. A bridge across the Ewaso Ng’iro connects the two reserves, as well as Shaba National Reserve which covers some 130 square kilometers. Shaba National Reserve may be best known as the place where George and Joy Adamson raised Elsa the lioness made famous by the best selling and award-winning book Born free.

Unlike other wildlife areas in Kenya’s northern tourist circuit, the three reserves, known as the Samburu Ecosystem, sustain free-ranging wildlife species both within the reserves as well as far into community lands.

Lying on the fringe of Kenya’s vast, hot and arid northern region, Samburu’s rugged scenery, endless skies, and vast panoramas create a stunning backdrop. The Ewaso Ng’iro river is the bloodline of this hot and arid environment and its waters support big herds of Elephants as well as Black Rhinoceros, Buffalo, Lion, Cheetah, Leopard, and many other species. The riverbanks are lined with acacias, doum, and fig palms, providing shade and sustenance to the visiting wildlife, and good numbers of crocodiles and hippos can also be seen along the sandbanks. The birdlife is strikingly numerous and colorful; there is no difficulty in seeing well over a hundred birds on a single day and especially around the river and the waterholes.

Besides normal species found elsewhere in Kenya, Samburuland has its own ‘Special Five’ – rare and endemic animals home in the Samburu ecosystem:

  • Grevy’s zebra - is far bulkier and more narrowly striped than the familiar common zebra
  • Long-necked gerenuk - standing erect on its hind legs to reach leaves that most other browsers can’t; it can go its entire life without drinking water, enabling them to survive in dry areas
  • Reticulated giraffe -  the striking red hides are divided by a jigsaw pattern of white lines (reticulations)
  • Somali ostrich - with distinct grey-blue neck and thighs
  • Beisa oryx - handsome antelope with legendary longhorns
