Saruni Samburu is surrounded by 95,000 hectares of private reserve and wild bush land, all of which can be surveyed from the lodge, which is elevated and built into flat rocks. The water hole is situated just below the lodge, and to watch elephant, leopard and gerenuk come and go from the comfort of the swimming pool, with a drink in hand, is magical. The view even extends to Mount Kenya. This is a first-class unrivalled safari experience in a truly untouched and wild part of Kenya.

The food is Italian influenced, and better than any Italian restaurant – served by the charming Samburu, who all come from a village not far from the lodge, within Kalama. Their charm, charisma and obvious passion for the lodge and surrounding area, cannot fail to make a lasting impression, and together with their fantastic host the lodge never fails to feel homely and welcoming.

The guides at Saruni Samburu have also been hand picked, and are knowledgeable, kind, and specialize in a number of different areas for those more discerning of wildlife enthusiasts.
