Camel Safaris

Camel Safaris are more or less the transportation in dry land of Northern Kenya and another way to experience Loisaba.

Wilderness Adventure

Wilderness Adventure is one thing you may not want to miss. Loisaba wilderness is bigger and you could take months exploring it and never come across the same place again. You will see extraordinary animal life that is wild, free and exhilarating to observe and a variety of bird life both migratory and endemic. In addition, there are also mountain bikes that offer another way to explore Loisaba terrain and spectacular flora and fauna or if you are generous you could support the building of the local school through Loisaba's "Quads for Classrooms" programme.

Game Drive

One nice way to view the wildlife at Loisaba is on a game drive. There are tour guide that will take you in an open vehicle across the plains, river bank, bush and viewing of birds, plants and trees. This is a destination where you can see Lion, Wild dogs, regular sightings of Leopard and sanctuary for Mugie Rhino. In the course of the game drive, you can go fishing in the river and dams all year round while the equipment can be procured together with drinks and a picnic.

River Rafting

River Rafting can be experienced in the afternoon at Ewaso Ngiro and Ng'are Narok rivers that flow through Loisaba in two person inflatable rafts. If you are not interested in river rafting, horse riding on the plains while viewing herds of zebra in a forest of giraffe with herds of elephant. Another thing to note is that it's possible to get close to wildlife since the horses have been reared in the bush so they are used to the presence of wild animals.
