Elephant
Watching
You
will be looked after by our elephant guides and taken right
into the midst of the elephant world where you will meet some
of the great matriarchs and their families, follow the known
bulls and share their secret places. The longer you spend with
them the more involved you become with these extraordinary animals.
To be accepted by the elephants is something you will never
forget.

Game
Drives
Samburu National reserve is home to reticulated giraffe,
gerenuk, Beisa oryx, Grevy zebra, and vulturine guinea
fowl, which are all unique to the arid North of Kenya.
Samburu National Reserve also offers spectacular game
viewing. With the Ewaso River and plenty of trees providing
shade, the wildlife are attracted to this idyllic refuge
and plenty of fabulous photo opportunities will abound!

Rafting
When
the river is full and flowing, a favorite activity at EWS
is rafting down the Uaso. Starting at the Cattle Corridor,
guests raft past EWS camp (where this photo was taken), and
then on to the Save the Elephants Research Center, where
you can stop for a break and a talk about the research currently
underway. When you reboard the raft, you continue along until
you reach the Wire Bridge, the location of elephant crossing.

Sundowners
A
tradition at Elephant Watch Camp, our Sundowners are a great
way to conclude your day. Our 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."

Bird
Watching & Hiking
Samburu
National Reserve is a bird-watcher's paradise. There are
over 400 varieties of birds, including the Bristle-crowned
Starling, Vereaux's Eagle-owl, Night Heron, Palm-Nut Vulture
(sometimes called the South African Fish-Eagle), and Pygmy
Falcon. You may even be lucky enough to glimpse the somewhat
uncommon Red-headed Weaver.
For
those who enjoy hiking, numerous walking trails surround the
camp.

Excursions
Personalized
excursions can also be arranged. You may chose to visit
a Samburu Village, the Save the Elephants Research Centre,
Mount Kenya, or other nearby attractions. A day trip to
Shaba national Reserve can be organised. Famed for its large
lion prides and huge bull elephants, a day trip to Shaba
is an ideal excursion. A climbing trip, day trips, and overnight
trips to Ol Lolokwe, the Samburu sacred mountain, may also
be arranged.
