The Elephant Watch Safari Camp is perched on the sand banks of the Uaso Nyiro River, beneath big Kigelia trees and Acacia Elatiors in an area that is home to some of the largest Elephant bulls in Samburu who can often be spotted resting under an acacia tree or picking pods beside the tents.

Elephant watch safari camp which is eco-friendly,  accommodates a maximum of 10 guests with its wide and breezy desert tents, individually styled, draped with colorful cloth and unusual furniture.

Rooms at the Elephant watch safari camp are adorned with bright swathes of cotton fanning in the breeze, huge cushioned sofas, woven local mats and special beds and furniture made from fallen trees. Bathrooms are built around trees, giving our guests a novel washing experience with plenty of sun heated water and lights.
 
Sundowners are located at our "top of the world" spot, with a breathtaking vista to observe the sunset. Enjoy a refreshing drink while you watch the Samburu warriors dance in the glow of a fire they created using their "firesticks."

Elephant Watching begins on arrival; Elephant Watch guides meet you at either of the two airfields and drive you gently through the Reserve spending time with many of our well known elephant families as well as introducing them to some of the particular Northern inhabitants - the slim necked Gerenuk, Reticulated Giraffe, Grevy Zebras and over 400 species of birds. A special visit to Save the Elephant Research Centre can also be organised.

On offer are early morning or evening bush walks along well-travelled elephant paths or collecting medicinal plants and honey and always accompanied by our Samburu Warriors.
