There are some truly beautiful camps in Samburu. Inside the Samburu National Reserve, Elephant Bedroom Camp is the perfect choice for those looking for an authentic tented camp in the heart of the game (named so because herds of elephants like to come and browse around the unfenced camp). Outside the park, Sasaab and Saruni Samburu offer the ultimate luxury in unique, untouched landscapes.

With more than 350 different bird species, Samburu is a great place for birdwatchers to go birdwatching. A diverse array of bird species can be observed there, including the chestnut-headed sparrow lark, pink-breasted lark, pygmy batis, ashy cisticola, secretary bird of the Northern Brownbul, mariqua sunbird, chestnut weaver, golden-breasted starling, and hunter's sunbird.

Samburu National Reserve is a former residential area for the Samburu people living along the reserve's border. These people are livestock herders, and each morning, they head to the family well to draw water for their livestock. While collecting water, they sing songs with a unique tune, which is recognized by the cattle to come and drink water. While on the game drive, you will encounter the singing locals.

During droughts, the Samburu and their livestock walk miles searching for water. On a safari in Samburu National Park, travelers encounter large herds of cattle, goats, and sheep in the bush. Meeting the Samburu people who protect the livestock and interfacing with them gives an insight into the local lifestyle.

Tourists also enjoy the Samburu dances, which are informed of the circles. These are friendly and good people, which makes the visitors on a cultural visit feel free with them and like not leaving Samburu National Reserve.
