Samburu Lodge

Situated on the banks of the Uaso Nyiro River amid the arid heart of Samburu National Reserve lies Samburu Lodge. Set in a landscape of jagged mountains and open plains, Samburu is home to its own indigenous wildlife and semi-nomadic tribes people.

The lodge's unique guest rooms are positioned both up and down the river, providing various sized cottages and bandas, with an exciting mix of decors. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms, some with verandas overlooking the river.

The sights and sounds of the river combined with mouth watering cuisine from the open-sided Dining Room make for a truly memorable stay. Enjoy an evening aperitif at world famous Crocodile Bar which provides a ringside view of the crocodiles having their supper (thoughtfully served on the river bank by the hotel kitchens). The lodge lures leopards out of the dense forest with meat on a floodlit platform. It's a rare treat indeed when this Greta Garbo of the animal kingdom deigns to make an appearance.

Optional walking safaris with skilled Samburu guides, camel rides, guided bird watches and raft trips when the river is high fill the hours between those adventurous game drives. Perhaps you seek relaxation by the sparkling swimming pool. Whatever your desire Samburu Lodge is sure to delight.
