Larsens Camp Samburu
Soroi Larsens camp is an exquisite boutique luxury retreat nestled in Samburu game reserve. Embrace the spirit of adventure that once inspired renowned explorer Eric Larsen. The camp expertly blends sustainability and local community support. Perched serenely on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro river, the camp has 12 tents, 2 family units, and 2 deluxe luxury tented suites, each offering private terraces with exclusive river frontage. Relish the vistas while nestled in our lavish accommodations. It has generous living spaces, private butlers, outdoor showers, and mesmerising sleep out decks with star beds. Recline under the celestial canopy as you fall asleep to the soothing lullaby of the river and the whispers of the African night. The camp delivers an exceptional safari experience for those who yearn to venture off the beaten path.
Bush Meals
Enjoy a romantic dinner for 2 under the stars, surrounded by trees and bushes, with lanterns to add to the ambience. Indulge in a delicious 4-course meal with unlimited soft drinks and a complimentary bottle of wine.
Cultural visits
Visit a Samburu village and discover their way of life. Your guide will transfer you to and from the village. With this village visit, we support the local community in the area, as most proceeds will go directly to them.
Experience the African bush on foot with our walking team and an armed ranger as your guide. Learn about the small five, identify animal tracks, and differentiate the droppings of different wildlife as you explore the bush outside the reserve.
We offer in-room massages by our expert therapists, who will help you unwind and rejuvenate.
End your day with Campfire Conversations overlooking the river and under the stars. Relax in comfortable canvas chairs while you share stories of your wildlife encounters and enjoy cold drinks and hot/cold canapés. It’s the perfect way to reflect on your day in the African bush.
Unwind during your afternoon/evening game drive with private sundowner drinks set up just for you. Enjoy your choice of local branded spirits, house wine, beer, and soft drinks, accompanied by homemade canapés, while watching the sunset over the African plains and hippos laze in the nearby river.
