From horse riding and bird watching to game drives and soothing spa treatments, our eco-camp offers an experience to suit every personality. Lake Elmenteita Serena Camp welcomes families with children ages three and older.

Morning or evening game drives offer our guests the exceptional chance of getting out of the vehicle and walking in the wild, in designated areas. Our roadmaster land cruiser, driven by our experienced naturalists ensures comfort and optimum game viewing experience throughout the drive.
Night Game Drive – The natural settings in the wild are very adverse. Individual animals are diurnal (active during the day), nocturnal (active at night), or even Crepuscular (active in twilight i.e. dawn and dusk). A uniquely specialized activity, a night game drive is the ultimate safari luxury. The night is the domain of such hunters as leopards and lions (Conservancy’s big cats), and the only time you may catch a glimpse of such elusive nocturnal creatures as Aardvarks, spring Hares, Porcupines, White-Tailed Mongoose, etc. Typically, our Camp’s safari vehicle is equipped with a powerful spotlight, which can be used to sweep the bush for likely sightings.
