African safaris offer more than just wildlife sightings; they present transformative experiences. Your choice of accommodation, whether a tented camp or lodge, plays a pivotal role in shaping this adventure. The right place to stay can enhance your journey to unforgettable heights.
Whether you’re marveling at lakes, mountains, or observing local wildlife, the perfect tented camp or lodge can make your trip truly memorable. At Natural World Kenya Safaris, we ensure options for every budget, placing you near the heart of the action in National Parks, Game Reserves, and Wildlife Sanctuaries.
Loisaba Conservancy is a vital refuge supporting over 260 bird species and 50 mammal species, including lions, wild dogs, giraffes, and the endangered Grevy’s zebra. It serves as a crucial place for Kenya’s second-largest elephant population. It plays a central role in supporting local Samburu committees through ecotourism and sustainable grazing initiatives.
Accommodations range from classic safari lodges to small, intimate, or luxury camps. There are many options to choose from near the conservancy which allows for optimal game viewing. There are even public camping sites as well.
We ensure that all these Loisaba Conservancy Lodges and Camps, from luxury to economy, will meet your comfort needs and include private bathroom facilities.
Situated at the edge of a mountain escarpment, the Elewana Loisaba Tented Camp boasts breathtaking views across the stunning Laikipia landscape, reaching Mount Kenya. Every corner of the property allows guests to gaze over a dramatic part of the Kenyan safari circuit. The main tented area of the Camp includes a spacious and open dining area, a blend of African and international influences coming through in the cuisine.
Discover an outdoor adventure and once-in-a-lifetime experience when sleeping under the stars in Kenya’s Laikipia County at Elewana Loisaba Star Beds. Views across the captivating valley and permanent waterhole give this a somewhat out-of-this-world vibe. Four-poster beds are laid out in the center of a wooden raised platform, with nothing but a starry night sky above you. Blending in with its environment the welcome is warm with local hospitality on hand from morning to night.
Set among the open savannah and bushy landscape of the Loisaba Conservancy, the Elewana Loisaba Lodo Springs is a safari destination offering an intimate escape in the East African wilderness. The inviting swimming pool is in an idyllic setting, overlooking the immediate green lawn and beyond that, a breathtaking wilderness. Comfortable lounge chairs set up on a deck offer an ambiance of peace.
The best time to go gorilla trekking in Uganda is during the dry season (December– February and June - August) when conditions are especially good for trekking to view mountain gorillas. Game drives in the national parks are also fruitful during this time.
Wear neutral colored, lightweight clothing on your Uganda safari. Dress in layers and bring a warm sweater for morning and nighttime game drives. For gorilla trekking, bring a waterproof rain jacket, hiking boots, long socks, hiking pants, bug repellant, and a daypack. A sunhat and gardening gloves are also a good idea; the jungle is dense and thick.
Natural World Kenya Safaris offers Gorilla Trekking Safaris in Uganda with basic accommodations starting at $96 per person, per day, plus the Uganda gorilla trekking permit which costs $700 per person per day (the permits are required, and those fees are non-negotiable.) Costs increase from there.
Natural World Safaris can provide basic, mid-range, and luxury trekking safaris and is eager to work with almost any budget.
Suggested tips range from $10 to $20 per person per day for a private guide and the same amount for your driver if that is a different person than your guide.
If you are on a guided safari or gorilla trek in Uganda, your chances of encountering problems are minimal. However, it is always a good idea to take precautions on your safari, particularly when traveling through urban areas or in regions close to the border with the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
The trek to spot gorillas can be strenuous. It could take anywhere from two to eight hours to find and observe the gorillas, depending on the time of year. Be prepared to hike for multiple hours through uneven terrain at high altitude. It is advisable to train before any gorilla trekking trip by walking uphill, or better yet, by taking day hikes.
When it comes to wildlife viewing, there are never any guarantees. There are no fences in the parks in Uganda and the gorillas are free to roam. However, our expert guides and gorilla trackers have years of experience taking guests to see these magnificent creatures. They know their favorite spots to congregate and work closely with park officials each day to provide the best possible chance of seeing gorillas in the wild.
Most mountain gorillas in Uganda live at between 4,900 to 7,500 feet. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, home to the country’s mountain gorillas, has a high point of 8,550ft.
The best time to go on a gorilla trek in Rwanda is during the dry season (June - September) when conditions are best for trekking to view the country’s highlight: the fascinating mountain gorillas.
Wear neutral colored, lightweight clothing on your Rwanda gorilla trek. Dress in layers and don’t forget a sweater for chilly morning and nighttime game drives. For gorilla trekking, bring a waterproof rain jacket, broken-in hiking boots, long socks, hiking pants, bug repellant, and a daypack. A sun visor and protective gloves – such as gardening gloves - are also useful.
Natural World Kenya Safaris offers Gorilla Trekking Safaris in Rwanda with basic accommodations starting at $720 per person, per day, plus the Rwanda gorilla trekking permit which costs $1,500 per person per day (the permits are required, and those fees are non-negotiable.) Costs increase from there.

Rwanda is one of the safest countries in Africa, particularly if you are on a guided safari or gorilla trek. Your chances of encountering problems are minimal. However, it is always a good idea to take precautions on your safari, particularly when traveling through urban areas. Cross-border travel into the Democratic Republic of the Congo or Burundi is not safe, however, so steer clear of this.
