Soroi Larsens Camp
Set on the edge of the Ewaso Nyiro River within Samburu National Reserve, Soroi Larsens Camp occupies a site once used by explorer Eric Larsen. The camp holds sixteen tents arranged facing the water: twelve standard, two two-bedroom family units, and two deluxe. Each tent includes a private terrace, en-suite bathroom, writing desk, and organic bath amenities. Family units contain a king-size bed in one bedroom and two twin beds in the other. Deluxe tents add outdoor showers, plunge pools, star beds on private decks, and round-the-clock butler service.

Guided drives depart at dawn or dusk through the reserve to track Samburu's endemic species — Grevy's zebra, Somali ostrich, reticulated giraffe, Beisa oryx, and gerenuk — alongside lion, elephant, and leopard. Walking safaris begin at camp; guides explain medicinal plants, animal tracks, and the region's four hundred bird species. The photography hide sits at ground level near a waterhole and places photographers at eye level with approaching wildlife. You can hear the river from the terrace. Excursions run to the Reteti Elephant Sanctuary, a community-run facility caring for orphaned elephants, and to the singing wells, where Samburu warriors draw water for livestock in a human chain while chanting traditional songs.

The camp is Gold Eco-Rated. A spa offers treatments using locally sourced oils. Wireless internet, laundry service, and a minibar are standard. Bush dinners, sundowners, and star-bed sleepouts can be arranged.
