Sasaab is situated in a culturally rich area offering an exciting mixture of Samburu life. We can arrange special visits to traditional ceremonies such as blessing rituals, weddings, Morani dancing and Manyatta visits. (By appointment and invitation only)

Trips to local Samburu markets on Wednesdays and Thursdays are a highlight of a visit to Sasaab. These markets offer guests an opportunity to see the art and beauty of the Samburu culture through their jewelry and attire.

Encounter a variety of wildlife on our day or night game drives. Discover lion, leopard and cheetah or the Samburu Special Five (Grevy’s Zebra, Reticulated Giraffe, Beisa Oryx, Gerenuk and Somali Ostrich).

The wildlife highlight of Samburu is the large herds of elephants, which are especially tolerant of safari cars.

Start your East African Holiday by exploring the Samburu countryside on a camel or enjoy a walk through the breathtaking vastness of Africa on a guided nature walk.

We are located on community land and consequently, you can comfortably explore the surrounding area on foot. Fill your senses with the intriguing sounds of the animals close by and the combined scents of the African wilderness.

Explore the great outdoors by camping under the stars, in a new location every night, with only a mosquito net between you and the African sky. Our experienced guide will find remote spots and set up a simple fly camp with only the bare necessities. ‘Fly’ is the name of the upper sheet of a tent and in the early days of the Safari, a hunter would simply take the upper sheet and sleep underneath it.

You can enjoy a good walk around the camping area, or just be alone in the African bush in our tranquil locations far from any distractions. After your excursion, enjoy comforts like hot water showers and simple but delicious meals by the fire.

We welcome children to all our properties and there is plenty for them to do at Sasaab. They can learn to make traditional Samburu bows and arrows, toothbrushes from trees and enjoy grilled marshmallows.

Children can create their own souvenirs of their Sasaab Samburu adventure; by taking home a plaster cast of a wild animal track or hand carving their own traditional Samburu weapons.
