Sarara Camp

Tucked away in the Namunyak Wildlife Conservancy within the rugged Mathews Range of northern Kenya, Sarara Camp is a luxury wilderness retreat that blends conservation, culture, and breathtaking landscapes into an unforgettable safari experience. Far from the crowds of the more famous reserves, Sarara offers an intimate connection with the wild heart of Samburu country.

The camp is famous for its natural waterhole, where wild elephants come to drink and bathe just steps from the infinity pool and dining area, offering guests extraordinary up-close encounters with these gentle giants in their natural habitat. This unique setting has made Sarara one of the most celebrated wildlife-viewing camps in East Africa.

Sarara is built on a deep partnership with the local Samburu community, who co-own and help manage the conservancy. Guests can visit the nearby Reteti Elephant Sanctuary, Africa’s first community-owned and run elephant orphanage, and experience authentic cultural interactions with the Samburu people, from traditional singing wells to vibrant manyatta visits.

Activities at Sarara include guided game drives, walking safaris, horse riding excursions, helicopter excursions, bird watching, bush breakfasts, and unforgettable sundowner experiences overlooking the vast Mathews Range wilderness.
