Elephant Bedroom Camp
About Elephant Bedroom Camp
Situated on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River in the Samburu National Reserve, Elephant Bedroom Camp is a classic, intimate tented camp. The landscape is characterized by arid plains, rocky outcrops, and the life-giving river, which attracts large herds of elephant and other unique northern species such as reticulated giraffe and Grevy's zebra. The tents are elegantly designed with local wood and fabric, each featuring a private deck overlooking the water. The experience is immersive and focused on the dramatic desert wildlife. With its shaded riverine setting, the camp offers a cool, tranquil base for exploring the harsh beauty of the Samburu region, providing a perfect balance between comfort and the raw, untamed nature of the African interior.
Why we like it
The camp is frequently visited by the local elephant herds, allowing guests to watch these majestic animals from the comfort of their own private deck.

Dry Season (May-October)
The Ewaso Nyiro River becomes a lifeline for Samburu's 'Special Five' and large elephant herds, which often walk through the camp during the dry months.
Green Season (November-April)
The arid Samburu landscape turns surprisingly green; the river may rise significantly, and the dust is settled, providing clear views of the Matthews Range.
