Sabuk Lodge, home to Professional Safari Guide, Simon Evans, is a stunning wilderness destination, perched on the high banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River in the Northern Frontier District, overlooking the Laikipia Plateau and Samburu land.

The lodge has 5 open sided cottages with verandah, shower and toilet, each with its own fabulous view. Sabuk was fashioned out of the local landscape, built with local materials, the hillside, flora, twisted wood and stone boulders incorporated into the architecture. Open walls and private verandahs face out over the river gorge 150 feet below.

This hilly area with dense acacia bush is host to a lot of game which varies according to the season: Greater Kudu, Reticulated Giraffe, Buffalo, Impala, Elephant, Warthog, Klipspringer, Zebra, Eland, DikDik, Waterbuck, Lion, Leopard, good bird watching and incredible scenery.

For clients spending 3 or more days this is the perfect start and finish to a camel assisted walking safari. Walk with a professional safari guide and a team of trained Laikipiak Maasai warriors as your guides through completely deserted tracts of wilderness: no other tourists, no roads or vehicles, only wildlife and their tracks, breathtaking scenery, the sounds of the bush, just Africa…

Each trip is tailor-made to suit the group, the distance planned and the time available. These safaris are ideal for children, they can ride a camel or walk, play and swim in the river or fish from the banks, special bushcraft skills are a delight for children on safari here: an ideal and relaxing family holiday.
