*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
You will find Elephant Watch Camp in splendid isolation in the Samburu Game Reserve. As is very common with Camps and Lodges the Elephant Watch Camp is situated right next to a river, in this case the Uaso Nyiro River, and right on one of the sand banks, which is one great place to stay on a Kenya Luxury Safari.

What makes Elephant Watch Camp so special isn�t just the situation where it sits beneath big kigelia and acacia trees. Nor is it just the fact that this area of Samburu plays host to some of the largest bull elephants who are to be found wandering close to the tents picking acacia pods, and there is nothing more thrilling than a close encounter with an elephant.

It isn�t the fact that the trees are filled with lots of birds and monkeys, or that baboons call out, there are leopards nearby, as well as the inevitable lions. Yes all this is a feast for all the senses, but that isn�t what makes Elephant Watch Camp so very special.

What makes Elephant Watch Camp so special can only be partly explained by its location, because it is a combination of other factors which combine to make this place an essential port of call on any Kenya Luxury Safari.

So what is it that makes the essential difference?

To start with there is of course the location, that cannot be faulted, and the view at night of flame torches and lanterns lighting up the camp along the river is unforgettable.

The size of the camp is a definite plus, because there are only a maximum of ten guests at any one time at Elephant Watch Camp. What this means is a totally personal, closely supervised and very safe and secure environment, where you will be looked after better than you could ever believe possible.

Elephant Watch Camp was designed on very specific eco friendly lines, and has been built to maximise comfort and coolness. The tents are wide and bright and breezy, all individually styled and lots of colour in the unusual furnishings, such as huge cushioned sofas, the furniture having been made from fallen trees.

The bathrooms are built round trees, which makes washing interesting with sun heated water, and sun powered lighting. This is the only source of water and electricity because otherwise there is no running water or electricity. This is an old fashioned safari camp and that is really what makes this place special. The smell of paraffin lamps will stay with you long after you leave.

There is a large mess tent tables, comfy chairs and setees, carpets and rugs Menus are varied with a great mixture of farm fresh bush gourmet tropical fruits, and some great wine. Eating at night is accompanied by the evocative sounds of the Kenya Bush.

The whole emphasis at Elephant Watch Camp is on local guides with local knowledge, who know everything there is to know about the elephants. Every day is different as you walk on bush walks following well established elephant paths early morning or evening led by an English speaking Samburu guide. What you will see is so unpredictable it�s yet another part of what makes Elephant Watch Camp so special.

Finally one of the most interesting and unique things you will get the chance to do is to visit the Save the Elephants Research Centre, where so much effort is being put in to ensure a future for the African Elephant. It is very moving to see what has happened and what is being done to change things.

Take a Luxury Kenya safari at Samburu and enjoy the best few days of your life at Elephant Watch Camp
