Kenya

Saruni Rhino

PLAN MY TRIP

Located in the untamed wilderness of Northern Kenya, Saruni Rhino is an intimate safari camp that provides the first rhino tracking experience in East Africa.

Accommodations at the camp consist of just three bandas. These rustic stone cottages topped with thatched roofs lie along a dry river bed. Banda One and Two sleep up to two people and come with a beautiful sandy terrace from which to watch the animals stroll by. While Banda Three is perfect for families and comes with two double bedrooms and a large stone veranda with outside seating and tables overlooking a watering hole. Every banda features an en suite bathroom with natural stone showers, double vanities, and a flush toilet. Other amenities include a fan, bathrobe, safe, and sunbeds.

The camp is situated in the Sera Conservancy which comprises 864,868 acres of semi-arid wilderness in the Northern Kenyan frontier. Many animals including elephants, reticulated giraffes, Beisa oryx, lions, Grevy’s zebras, elands, lesser and greater kudus, leopards, and cheetahs live here. The Conservancy is also home to 16, 000 Samburu semi-nomadic pastoralists who are a sub-tribe of the Maasai. Moreover, the area houses the first community owned rhino sanctuary where the black rhino has been reintroduced to its native home in Kenya.

There are many exciting activities to discover at Saruni Rhino. In addition to the usual game drives, the camp conducts a unique rhino-tracking experience. Guests are driven into the wilds and then led on a walking expedition with an expert Samburu guide to track some of the twelve rhino in the Conservancy. Another excursion explores the Singing Wells or The Fifty Wells known as ‘Kisima Hamsini which are a string of underground-connected water wells where the local farmers lead their livestock to drink while singing a unique, rhythmic chant that only their livestock respond to.

Italian inspired dinners using only fresh-sourced local ingredients are served under the light of the stars and hurricane lamps on the dry river bed. Swara house, the communal dining and lounge space, enjoys excellent views of the nearby watering hole which is frequented by elephants, monkeys, impala, and the famous sand grouse. The swimming pool is the ideal spot to cool off after a thrilling rhino tracking adventure. Otherwise, the popular day bed lets guests relax to the soothing songs of the wilds. The eco-friendly lodge runs on solar power. Wifi is available at Swara House.
