Sarara Camp

Sarara is a luxurious, romantic tented camp on the edge of the magnificent Samburu wilderness. Set on the slopes of the Mathews Mountains and offering awe-inspiring views, Sarara Camp welcomes continuous connections with this remote wilderness and the wildlife calling it home.

Stretching over 850,000 acres of pristine wilderness in the Mathews Range, this remote and dramatic landscape is home to the indigenous Samburu people, whose age-old traditions (including the revered ancient Singing Wells) are as much a part of the fabric of this land as the wildlife.

Sweeping savannah plains, lush mountain slopes, and riverine forests provide the backdrop for a diverse range of species including Kenya’s second-largest elephant population, the endangered Reticulated giraffe, Grévy's zebra, leopard, wild dog, kudu and more. The conservancy is also a bird-lovers paradise with an astounding number of endemic, migratory and predatory birds. Set on the slopes of the Mathews Mountains, Sarara Camp offers expansive verandas with awe-inspiring views.

Accommodation at Sarara Camp

Six spacious en-suite tents, all with uninterrupted views of Namunyak’s 850,000-acre wilderness and the majestic Mathews Mountain Range. Each beautifully appointed en-suite tent features solar-heated outdoor showers – and two of the suites are interconnected with an outdoor path, making for the ideal family unit.

Each intimate tent is positioned to maximise the stunning views of the Mathews Range and the waterhole that attracts a variety of games throughout the day. The tents are spacious and high-ceilinged with private terraces with tables and chairs and morning coffee and tea are brought to you so that you can leisurely arise gazing out over the mountains. There is an outdoor bathroom offering a superb view of the hills from the shower and an indoor toilet and sink at the back of the tent.

Sarara Camp also offers the exclusive two-bedroom Sarara House, which is perfect for families or friends and includes a spectacular plunge pool, private dining, and a spacious lounge area with panoramic views.
