Revive yourself at Tumaren

  • Basecamp Retreat
  • Meditation Retreat
  • 4 days; 3 nights
  • 1 to 10 travelers
  • Begins & ends in Kimanjo
Familiarize yourself with all of the wildlife Kenya has to offer as you walk with camels, game drive, and relax for three nights at Tumaren Camp. Just outside of your huge tent, wildlife saunters through the open plain and to the salt lick. Our game-viewing Land Cruisers are always at the ready and can be used day or night to look for the rich wildlife that distinguishes Laikipia as one of the most hopeful conservation models on the continent. Here, you can relax and recharge or be as active as you'd like. We offer walks, camel rides, picnics, rock climbing at all levels, swimming, a visit to the local school, a visit to Nayasura, and market trips on certain days. There is something for everyone. Over the course of your time at Tumaren, you might choose to explore the Ewaso Nyiro River and the band of lush vegetation that follows its banks. The river is an excellent spot for viewing elephant herds that come down to drink as well as other animals attracted by the water or the thicker habitat.read more

Kerry Glen

In the wilder stretches of Laikipia, Kenya. Kerry Glen and James Christian have been running Karisia Walking Safaris since 2003. On Tumaren, their ranch that they manage exclusively for wildlife a visitor can see a large diversity of large game while walking beside camels who carry water and snacks. For kids who can tire more easily they often times prefer to game-spot from camelback, often times approaching Reticulated Giraffe, Grevy’s Zebras and plains game closely. The walks are guided by Kerry and James as well as by their teams of excellent Samburu and Masai guides. Gabriel Ewoi is the lead guide at Karisia and while simultaneously fluent in the Latin and English names of everything you see, he is also fluent in the cultural, geological and ecological stories that piece Laikipia together.read more
