Lodge Overview
Elephant Watch is the ultimate in eco-luxury and an unrivaled wildlife experience, thanks to the long links to pioneering elephant conservation in Kenya’s Samburu National Reserve. Here, guest’s dreams of an African adventure without compromise come true. The six en-suite tents are crafted from all-natural materials, including trees felled by elephants, and stand in woodland by the Ewaso Nyiro river. Chefs make and bake every bite of the delicious food on site to offer guests a superb fusion of Italo-Afro-bush gourmet for which Elephant Watch is famous far and wide. Vegetables are sourced locally from the foothills of Mt. Kenya, and then spiced to perfection with herbs from the organic garden. The meat comes mostly from the organic farm in Naivasha, or from the lush cattle ranches of Laikipia where livestock is pasture-raised and free to roam.
