Karisia Walking Safaris

Karisia Walking Safaris is an old-fashioned safari experience located in eastern Laikipia; a hot spot for diverse wildlife in Kenya. North of Mt. Kenya and just a two-hour drive from Nanyuki town and its airport, Karisia is ideally situated for easy access to some of the most dramatic displays of this region’s animals.

Karisia's mobile walking safaris follow footpaths that have been used for millenia and take guests through abundant and varied landscapes of bush, moorland, river valleys, dusty plains, and much more. Walking routes vary in length, group size, and fitness level. A trail of Samburu camels will carry your wares as you traverse incredible landscapes, before your trusty trail friends shed their heavy loads and staff set up a comfortable and fully functioning mobile camp for the evening. With custom built itineraries, different types of accommodation, and wonderful heartfelt service, Karisia’s mobile walking safaris are a truly memorable experience. 

As well as mobile walking safaris, you can also enjoy a few nights at Karisia’s Tumaren Camp; a semi-permanent, tented bush camp and their base of operations. With all the creature comforts and range of activities including game drives, tracking, walking, wild swimming, school visits and more, a stay at Tumaren Camp is a fantastic way to start or end your walking safari.

Although Karisia is proud to be an old-fashioned safari outfitter, there are a wealth of modern comforts and experiences available at Tumeran Camp and on their mobile safaris, which make adults and children alike feel very much at home. They tick all the boxes when it comes to luxury safari life including luxury bedding, personalized service and professional guiding and hosting. The wildlife doesn’t disappoint either; Karisia benefits from being able to roam across the areas that vehicles cannot reach, and considering that this area boasts the highest diversity of large mammals in Kenya, there is a high chance of a unique encounter with amazing animals.
