Karisia Nantodo Camp is located at the junction of a wide sand river and the Ewaso Nyiro River, shaded by large, umbrella-shaped acacia trees.
Behind the camp rises the immense granite pinnacle of Nantodo, a prominent landmark visible for miles across the arid plains.
The sand river here is often dry, but digging down reveals crystal clear water, naturally filtered through the sand, perfect for a refreshing shower at the end of the day.
The Ewaso River, very wide at this point, is a well-known crossing for the local Samburu people. From the camp, you can enjoy watching the traditional Samburu and their livestock come to the river to water, cross, and spend a few hours washing.
Our Luxury Walking Safaris with Camels offers a touch of extravagance to this already magical safari.
On this safari, your entire camp is moved daily as you sojourn through this pristine wilderness.
Your team will comprise of camp staff, armed, professional guides and a caravan of camels 10-25 strong depending on the size of your group. The riding camels accompany you for your walk and can be ridden or simply carry refreshments for the morning.
Being away from the hustle and bustle of the safari circuit, this unique experience still offers you those lavish touches with a king size mattress and feather pillows. Our bedding comprises of 2 feather pillows, imported sheets and duvets as well as dressing gowns, towels, hot water bottles, solar lights and carpets. Literally everything apart from the four-poster bed!
Your accommodation is a spacious traditional, canvas tent with a chair, table, mirror, drinking water and a basin on the veranda. All carried by a friendly camel.
Bucket showers come with a good supply of hot water and each tent has it own toilet behind the tent.
For families with young children, we are happy to join two tents together creating a family unit so the children feel secure.
Meals are freshly prepared each day using a good range of healthy ingredients. Much of the produce is locally sourced and we can cater to any dietary request. Breakfast and dinner are served at the table, whereas lunch is an informal buffet-style affair.
