Samburu Intrepids was a wonderful tented camp. The reception/bar/dining lodge is a beautiful timber framed open sided pavilion overlooking the river. It really felt like a special place in the middle of the wild. The tents themselves were very nice with firm, comfy beds, nice linens, great bathroom. And perhaps nicest of all, a ceiling fan, that made our afternoon... more

My 6 year old daughter & self stayed at Samburu Intrepids as part of a fly-in Family Safari (including Masai Mara). We were advised to stay 2 nights at Samburu & 3 at Mara Intrepids but wished it had been the other way around. It seemed far more relaxed & personal than Mara Intrepids. Samburu Intrepids was far superior in... more

Samburu National Reserve was the third of four stops on our Kenya Safari. We stayed for two nights at the Intrepids Camp in a newly renovated 2-bedroom tent suite on the banks of the Uaso Nyiro River. The beds were very comfortable. We had a porch outside each bedroom with a common area in between the two bedrooms. Each tent... more

We stopped here while driving north to Maralal as it was one of the few (safe) places to stay. While I sometimes stay at very upscale hotels, I normally don't enjoy the experience because of the coldness and snob factor. Not so with the Samburu Intrepid - the welcome was very warm and sincere, with a true desire to please.... more

The Samburu Intrepids Tent camp is a fantastic place to stay. the tents are beautiful. The warm shower was delightful (heated by solar heat). The staff was stellar and brought coffee, tea, or hot chocolate to our room each morning with our personal wake-up call. The monkeys have caught on to the cookies on the coffee/tea tray and will try... more

Samburu Intrepids was just fantastic the friendly people,service, tents, pool all excellent. Samburu Intrepids was our favourite place on our 6 day safari just wish we had stayed for 3 nights instead of 2. Then we could have had time to visit a village. Our children went to the Adventures club they made jewellery and catapults. Also did archery and... more

We (me, wife plus 6-yr old) spent three nights at the Samburu Intrepids Lodge as part of a week long safari trip; rest of the time was at the Mara Intrepids which was definitely inferior to the Samburu Intrepids in all ways. There is really nothing which is less than perfect about the property. The location is sensible in a... more

I loved this place....from the moment you arrive you are amazed that this place even exists in the middle of the bush! I can't fault anything - the food, the surroundings, the tents overlooking the river, the people....fantastic. Would love to return. Remember to keep your tents firmly tied up to stop the monkeys getting in but we spent a... more

We went to Samburu in June for our honeymoon and stayed 3 nights.. The staff are the most friendly and welcoming you could ever meet.. Our driver Jay-Jay was the best guide ever and knew everything about the wildlife.. We went to visit the local village while we were there and it was a truly humbling experience.. Although some say... more
