About the camp
About Elephant Bedroom Camp.
Elephant Bedroom Camp sits in the shade of doum palms on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River, and elephants, monkeys and impala often wander through camp. Meals are served outdoors by the river, and private dinners can be set up on a veranda or under the stars.
Each tent has its own plunge pool and veranda. Game drives are in open vehicles with no more than six guests, and bush meals, sundowners and talks by Samburu warriors round out the days.
