We offer an intimate wilderness experience for the wildlife connoisseur. El Karama bandas offer accommodation for up to 20 people.  The choice of accommodation ranges from stone/canvas ‘bandas’ and slightly larger cottages for couples with children or small groups. 

The bandas are situated at a safe distance from the rivers edge and look across to a salt lick where wildlife often congregate in the early morning and evening.  Each banda has its own veranda for reading and star gazing.  All guests are provided with storm lanterns to compliment the fixed eco-friendly LED lighting.

The dining building, open along one side with a peaceful view across the river, is breezy during the day and cosy at night with a massive open fireplace and big sofas. It can easily seat twenty. The roof is high , showing off beautiful giant bamboo and thatch and catching the dreamy sound of the river running by.

The friendly chefs prepare delicious dishes from the freshest local ingredients many of which are grown on the ranch itself. There is a catered and self-catered option available to guests.

Activities at El Karama include day and night game drives, fantastic horse safaris with El Karama’s own horses, walking safaris with ranch trackers, fishing in the Ewaso Nyiro river, camel rides, fly camping and many more.
