The Karisia Walking Safari is called Nyasura and it is certainly sacred ground, used for millennia by hunters and others seeking shelter. Ancient graves, flints, and pounding stones called boluses are all in evidence around the rocks and particularly the caves. We will be camped beside Nyasura and in the evening after a jaunt about we will scale its slopes for a view and a sundowner. The remainder of the safari traverses a rich Acacia bush country that thrives with plains game as well as the predators that like to eat them. It is not uncommon to run into a Lion, Leopard, Hyena, or Wilddog along the course of this safari. With our riding camels carrying our heavier cameras, water, and snacks we will venture forth each morning while the bulk of the remaining camels bear the tents, fly sheets, and kitchen straight onto the next camp. This safari finishes on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River, the second largest river in Kenya.
Hugely popular with our Elephants who love to wallow in its muddy stretches, the river offers a great opportunity to approach, study and photograph these riveting animals.

Our guide and driver were very good with their knowledge and were very helpful with our questions. It was a very pleasant visit that would have been impossible to do on our own. Hotels and restaurants were fantastic. The special places we got to go to, like the kitchens, were great. Enjoyed the entire trip!
