Karisia Walking Safaris

Laikipia | Kenya

In the days of glitzy luxury lodges, and air-conditioned safari tents, it’s easy to lose touch with the things that originally lured visitors from across the world to the African bush. Karisia’s walking safaris mark a return for this, with days spent tramping from camp to camp through the bush as Samburu warriors lead you through their own land.

Perfect for

Wanderers jaded by city life.

Where

Anywhere in the wilds of northern Kenya, from the lush hills of the Matthews Mountains to the dusty bush of Tumaren ranch.

Rooms at Karisia Walking Safaris

This is back-to-basics adventure. You’ll have a comfy bed roll, a bowl of hot water in the mornings and a shower that looks up at the stars.

Food and facilities

Although your food’s brought in by camel, and cooked over a crackling fire, don’t expect bog-standard grub. Meals are hearty and delicious- from hot porridge at breakfast, to tempting early evening sundowners.

Activities at Karisia Walking Safaris

Walking, camel riding and (in crocodile free areas) the odd dip in the river. Pause for sundowners on rocky kopjes, track elephant through the bush on foot, and take night drives out from your camp.

In the know

Karisia are pioneering mountain-biking safaris in Kenya. If walking’s too slow and bumping around in a safari vehicle’s not for you, we’d heartily recommend giving this a try.
