WHAT TO DO

AFRICAN SAFARI ADVENTURES

Sasaab offers the ultimate destination for an African wildlife safari adventure. There is so much to see and do to suit every type of safari-goer, from photography enthusiasts to those fascinated in local culture to people who love fast-paced fun and those simply seeking a tranquil escape to nature. Mealtimes and locations are flexible depending on your itinerary for the day, which can start as early or as late as you like. Wherever your interests lie, Sasaab’s team can’t wait to make your safari adventure in Samburu an unforgettable experience.

Sasaab is a playground for adventures in the wilderness

Encountering the diverse wildlife of this region is a delight for all ages. From the majestic elephant herds of Samburu to the brightly coloured agama lizards you can spot around the lodge. Don’t forget to look out for the ‘Samburu Special Five’ on game drives, five mammals unique to northern Kenya. Heading out for a safari adventure in the Samburu National Reserve with one of our professional guides, a spotter and the promise of a cook-out wilderness breakfast makes for a brilliant morning.

ACTIVITIES AT SASAAB

As well as game drives in our open sided 4 x 4 vehicles, there are plenty of other ways to appreciate the stunning landscape and wildlife at Sasaab. Nature walks, camel rides, quad biking excursions and helicopter experiences are all on offer. You can even pre-book to spend a night fly camping out in the bush under our mosquito dome tents and fall asleep gazing up at the stars. When you want a break from all the excitement, the calming serenity of SpaSaab awaits and you’ll find our cooling plunge pools and infinity pool irresistible.

SASAAB FOOTPRINT

Not only is your Safari adventure in the Samburu making magical memories for you and your loved ones, but it is also making a difference people and wildlife in Kenya. At each of The Safari Collection properties, we try to make a positive impact on communities and wildlife living nearby. Our close partnership with the Westgate Samburu community allows us to get involved in a multitude of health and education initiatives, some of which you might be able to visit.

These include kitting out a school library, funding the first indigenous school uniform, running a school lunch initiative, helping The Samburu Project to build safe drinking water boreholes and our Conservation Scholars programme, to name but a few. We also help fund a dental and eye clinic in nearby communities to provide life-changing treatments to those in need. Let one of our team know if you’re interested in discovering more about Sasaab’s community projects.

Discover how you are helping to make a positive impact just by staying at with us on Sasaab’s Footprint page. If you’d like to learn more about all the wonderful projects that we support at each of our properties, then visit Our Footprint.
