SAMBURU NATIONAL RESERVE
The reserve is rich in wildlife with fame for abundance in rare northern specialist species such as the Grevy Zebra, Somali Ostrich, Reticulated Giraffe, Gerenuk, and the Beisa Oryx (Also referred to as Samburu Special). The reserve is also popular with a minimum of 900 elephants. Large predators such as the Lion, Leopard, and Cheetah are an important attraction (Kamunyak the Miracle Lioness that adapted the baby Oryx is a resident in the reserve). Wild dog sightings are also a common attraction to this unique protected area.
SAMBURU SOPA LODGE
The guest cottages follow the exterior design of centuries-old, traditional Samburu housing, but the similarity stops there. Instead, the structures have much higher ceilings; far larger windows; much more floor space; and en suite bathrooms.
The well-spaced cottages have two airy and comfortable, tastefully furnished guest rooms, each with two queen size beds; a large dressing table; a lavishly appointed bathroom; and an open-air veranda that overlooks the waterhole.
ELEPHANT BEDROOM
Elephant Bedroom Camp provides a stylish experience along the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River, in Samburu National Reserve. The classic safari camp is easily accessible all year round. Multiple nearby airstrips mean that guests can enjoy a short transfer of no longer than an hour, with a game drive en-route. The property is also an easy trip by road from Nairobi.
The 14 tented rooms are styled with subtle African tones and have beautiful private decks, perfect for sitting and observing the goings-on along the riverbed. With the backdrop of majestic mountains, including the white-capped Mount Kenya, guests will soon fall into the rhythm of the African wilderness.
