The Elephant Watch Camp is an exotic eco-camp, perched on the sand banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River, beneath big Kigelia trees and Acacia Elatiors.
The camp, which is totally eco-friendly, has been specially constructed for comfort and coolness, accommodating a maximum of ten guests with its wide and breezy desert tents, individually styled, draped with colorful cloth and unusual furniture.
Bathrooms, which are long-drops are built around trees, giving AfricanMecca guests a novel washing experience with plenty of sun heated water and lights.
Everything about Elephant Watch Camp is a feast for the senses, with bright swathes of cotton fanning the breeze, huge cushioned sofas, woven local mats and special beds and furniture made from fallen trees.

Nature Experience and Activities at Elephant Watch Camp Located In Samburu National Reserve. Elephant Watch Camp is home to some of the largest bulls in Samburu who can often be spotted resting under an acacia tree or picking pods beside the tents. The trees are filled with a multitude of birds and monkeys. At dawn a gentle chorus echoes overhead announcing the new day in t he wild.
Elephant Watching begins on arrival. The Elephant Watch guides can meet their guests at either of the two airfields and drive them gently through the Reserve spending time with many of their well known elephant families as well as introducing them to some of the particular Northern inhabitants - the slim necked Gerenuk, Reticulated Giraffe, Grevy Zebras and over 400 species of birds. A special visit to Save the Elephant Research Center can also be organized.
Each day opens with a new adventure: early morning or evening bush walks along well-traveled elephant paths or collecting medicinal plants and honey and always accompanied by local Samburu Warriors. At times one can witness the great river crossings of camels and cattle, fire making and Samburu ceremonies.
Books, films and information on elephants are provided for guests. At night, flame torches and lanterns light up the camp along the river.
