Walk on Kenya’s diverse and spectacular countryside and lose yourself in Kenya’s stunning wilds. Explore with camels as our friendly beasts of burden. The guides are fluent in natural history, English, Swahili, Maa, the local culture and will provide you with a luxurious adventure you will never forget.

Unlike a vehicle-based safari, a walking safari allows the traveler to enjoy a more intimate insight into Kenya’s animals and its people.

Day 5 – Karisia

Awake with the rising sun, eat a delicious breakfast prepared by the Samburu chefs, and begin the journey accompanied by a Laikipia Maasai tracker and a few riding camels who carry the refreshments and day-packs. Arrive at the next camp to be greeted with a cool drink and a gourmet lunch. Spend the afternoon relaxing, enjoying a stream or river, having a siesta or fishing before going for an evening walk and sundowners. In the evening the staff will offer hot showers before drinks by the fire and a three-course dinner under the stars.

Day 6 – Karisia

In the early morning you will be woken with a ‘hodi’ (knock knock) and hot water in your basin outside the tent. Head out after breakfast and walk across large plains as well as mixed bush. Herds of Zebra, Oryx and Grant’s gazelle predominate on the large plains with smaller numbers of Jackson’s Hartebeest and Thompson’s Gazelle. In the mixed bush we find Dik Dik, Gerenuk, Impala and Lesser Kudu if we are lucky enough to see them. At camp we will arrive in time for lunch. After lunch we will follow our routine of resting, reading or badminton for the energetic and later another walk in the evening to a pretty spot for sundowners.
