Larsens Camp in Samburu National Park

Larsens Camp is named after Erik Ole Larsen, a legendary Dane credited with defining the luxury safari under canvas.

It is a luxury permanent tented camp set in lush lawns on the bank of the Uaso Nyiro, a river in Samburu National Reserve.

The river is the perfect stage for an endless pageant of wildlife - elephants rolling and trumpeting in the shallows, timid impala nervously drinking, baboons and vervet monkeys swinging through the canopy of trees.

This is camping in style with casual colonial elegance, hot showers and a surprising degree of comfort with toweling gowns in the tent and comfort able leather safari chairs.

Cool green lawns stretch between the tents. The food is excellent and often cooked on barbecues in front of you.
