SAMBURU
INTREPIDS CAMP.
Samburu Intrepids Club is a luxury-tented camp in the midst
of the rugged and savagely beautiful semi arid desert of northern
Kenya. Located in the Samburu National Reserve on the banks
of the Uaaso Nyiro River, the club offers unique game viewing
in its immediate surroundings. Located 345 kilometers north
of Nairobi, the journey to the camp involves a 50-minute flight
to the Samburu airstrip followed by a 20-minute drive through
the reserve.
•
The luxurious tented camp offers 27 modern tents with a
private view over the wildlife-rich riverbanks. The tent
has soft four-poster beds, mahogany closets and desks, and
en suite bathrooms with steaming hot showers. The bathrooms
also offer twin washbasins, flush toilets, and sockets for
shavers and battery charging.
• The tented camp roofing is all palm-thatched, and is raised
on stilts to catch the cooling breeze blowing off the river.
• The main dining room has a seating capacity of 60, and
opens onto an outdoor dining terrace, where buffet breakfasts
and lunches are served overlooking the river. (Meals can
also be enjoyed on your private verandah or at one of a
series of specially selected 'bush sites' close to the camp.)
• There is a lounge and bar area where resident naturalists
deliver fascinating slide shows most evenings, and an intimate
conference room with a television for viewing wildlife documentaries.
Behind the bar, surrounded by shady sunbathing areas, is
the freeform swimming pool.
• There is seasonal river rafting and the nature bird walks
provide a fascinating past time.
• Buffet luncheons and candlelight dinners are served on
an elevated deck amidst the high shade trees.
• Camel and walking safaris outside the reserve are available
• Other services available include: resident doctor, laundry
and telephone/fax.
