From the moment we arrived the manager and the staff we encountered were most helpful and attentive. The manager was most concerned that the raised toilet seat they had provided was adequate (actually excellent) In the restaurant Anastazia had been instructed to help carry my plate when there was a buffet at breakfast and lunch. In the evening Steven gave an illustrated talk on the wildlife of Samburu which was very interesting. Unfortunately we had only booked a two night stay. Would love to return one day

At 2 p.m. when the temperature reaches 37 C we get to Samburu Intrepids Camp and because we know this Camp, so without asking too many questions, we start with lunch. There is a choice of onion soup, vegetable soup, lamb or fish, vegetables and we of course take Tusker. We stay at tent No 10 facing the river like all other tents . Rather disappointingly the water is cold (and I don’t mean the river) and Wi-Fi at the reception only. The tent is very clean with a big bed in the middle and a bathroom en suite, terrace with two chairs. Not very inspiring and you can hear people from a neighbouring tent arguing. So ZERO privacy. The paths are even but the lamps along are at the wrong height and provide very poor illumination. For dinner: pumpkin soup, pork (soft) , mashed potatoes, sorbet and fruit. The camp generator noise is rather loud so try getting a tent as far as possible from it if you want to rest in peace (no pun intended) And remember, in the early morning 3 - 4 a.m. it gets cold so have a duvet ready.

We came for 2 days and HAD to extend our stay because everyone was enjoying themselves so much. Obviously the safari was fantastic with a great guide - Jelly - who made sure we had a once in a lifetime experience every time we went out with him, quite a feat! But the reason why we will be back, and which makes the 6 hour drive to get there manageable, were how generous and friendly the staff were. Making sure that everything was easy, going out of their way to help us - particularly with entertaining the kids. Special thanks must go to Cleo, Anastasia, Victor, Boniface, Silas, Hussain, Mike, Tony, Laurence, and countless others who showed the kids how to use a catapult, made bracelets with them, cleaned our car, found lost toys, helped carry bags, played Uno with us, and showed us the way back to our tent at night. Thank you all so much for a fantastic trip. And on the way out we've just seen 3 lions!

Wonderful stay inside Samburu Park. We absolutely loved the location and the comfortable beds. Liz the masseuse was amazing. But you may consider building her a massage hut by the river so the guests have a beautiful view while getting a massage. Anastasia was absolutely a pleasure and anticipated our every wish. The morning wake up call with coffee and cookies was promptly served by Abraham. And we really enjoyed the Samburu flutist at breakfast and lunch. Very nice touch. The only complaint was maybe leave a little electricity between midnight and 5 am.it was stifling hot when the fan turned off.

A lovely tented camp set just off the river in Samburu which provided an idyllic setting. The staff were superb and nothing was too much trouble. The bar area was nice for evening drinks. Food at the restaurant was ok. The tents were great! The beds were extremely comfortable and the rooms provided all of the necessary amenities for a short stay!

Beautiful location and wonderful time! Emily was our server for meals and made sure to learn our names and preferences. Could not ask for better service! Dom was our game driver and knew his way around to preserve to get us up close to most all the species available to see. His expertise made the trip very memorable!

On the long drive north from Nairobi we questioned ourselves as to whether we should have agreed to this journey but my goodness, we arrived at Samburu National Park and were blown away by the beauty of the reserve and the array of wildlife. On arrival at Intrepids we were greeted with a cold towel, drink and a warm welcome by all the staff. The tents are fantastic, just remember to keep them zipped to prevent the babboons entering! The food is so good with a menu and table service at both lunch and dinner. Thank you to all the staff but a specialention to Anastasia who looked after us at meal times. We had a fantastic stay and would recommend that you make the effort to visit this stunning reserve.

My husband, three adult children and I had a wonderful stay at Samburu Intrepids. The camp was well maintained. The tents were very comfortable and clean. The entire staff was friendly and the service was great. Highly recommend for a luxurious yet authentic stay among the most spectacular nature! Each game drive thrilled us more than the next…large animal sightings around every turn. Breathtaking!
