The ultimate luxury walking safari experience, with the signature element of a camel train to portage all your camping equipment and luggage. Yes, the four poster bed is left behind, but the King size mattress, feather pillows, duvet, linen, dressing gowns, towels, hot water bottles, solar lights, headlamps and carpets all come along. You will sleep in a large, traditional canvas tent, with a chair, table, mirror, drinking water and wash basin on the tent veranda. There’s a toilet behind each tent, and plenty of hot water for a hot bucket shower. This excursion is for anyone between the ages of 4 – 80.
This region boasts the highest diversity of large mammals in Kenya, and is also home to several endangered species including the Grevy’s zebra, the African wild dog, and Jackson’s hartebeest. Specialist English-speaking guides, and an expert tracker, together with a few camels carrying your refreshments and day-packs, will accompany you on your morning’s walk. The rest of the staff and camel train move ahead to set up the next camp and your gourmet lunch. Your adventurous journey will be filled with rich insights into the region’s glorious bio-diversity, and the lives and traditions of the local Samburu tribe. After afternoons of relaxation, sundowners and 3-course dinners bring each day to a sublime close.
