Ashnil Samburu Camp

Beautiful setting! Kennedy our server was delightful and very attentive to our needs. The food was delicious. The Baboons were present and fascinating to view. The semi tents and ensuites were immaculately clean and comfortable. A great place to stay.

Beautiful location with an unobstructed view of the river, beautiful sunrise from the gate. The food was delicious and there was much to learn on the game drive. The staff made our stay great. Want to relax and get off the grid? visit Ashnil Samburu.

Beautiful well-kept tents & grounds. I extended my stay in Kenya to move to Ashnil after traveling with a group, and couldn’t have felt more cared for by the lovely professional & friendly staff. And the food! So good and beautifully presented. Kudos to the chef. Wonderful safari guides and opportunities to see wildlife - I was excited to look up to see the elephant they’ve named Obama pass 30’ in front of my tent! (Other side of a fence.) Monkeys and baboons wander the grounds. Compared to other camps in the park and to better-known parks (eg Masaii Mara), Ashnil’s prices are reasonable, & you won’t constantly come across other tourists on your safari drives in this region. In case it’s not clear: I highly recommend!

We had a fantastic experience here. The service was top-notch and made us feel safe and relaxed. The food was delicious and there was a great selection at each meal. The tent was completely spotless and very comfortable. Sitting on our porch and watching the elephants, monkeys and baboons between game drives was exciting. But it was the service that really stood out. We would definitely stay here again.

My wife and I have just spent five fantastic night at the Lodge. The staff are all very helpful and friendly, nothing is too much trouble. Our tent was extremely clean and comfortable, we heard lions roaring most nights! We took advantage of the laundry service and our items were returned the same day clean and beautifully presented. The food was amazing, certainly the best we have experienced in the bush! The Lodge is actually situated in the Buffalo Springs National Reserve, and this is where our game drives took place, early morning and late afternoon. The Lodge has a nice swimming pool, and we took advantage of this after our morning drive. The tents have a small veranda where we spent time watching the camp wildlife, such as baboon and vervet monkeys, and the various birds. The game drives were brilliant. Our guide, Shukri, knew the area like the back of his hand and tried very hard to show us everything. There are great numbers of elephants and giraffe, as well as the various types of antelope. We saw lions everyday, on one occasion following three lionesses and their seven cubs walking along the road. And the unusual sight of lions up a tree, trying to catch baboons! We also had sightings of two different cheetah families, both with cubs of their own. Overall, a great experience, and if you are considering a safari I would urge you to give this Lodge considerable thought.
