Mid-range Inside the park Owner/family-run

Shaba Safari Camp is described by one regional site as a semi-permanent canvas camp among the volcanic hills inside Shaba National Reserve, where entry would be Isiolo County's $70. Nearly every other source says Sarova Shaba is the only lodge working inside Shaba, so we could not establish that this camp exists at all. No website, no rate and no capacity, and we would welcome a correction from whoever runs it.

Why you'd pick it

  • Single-source listing inside Shaba
  • Described as mid-range canvas among the volcanic hills
  • Other sources say Sarova is the only lodge in the reserve

What the park charges on top

The rate above buys you a bed. Samburu National Reserve charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.

Park entrySamburu National Reserve; Buffalo Springs and Shaba charge $70.
$85per person, per day
VehicleA car under six seats at KES 800.
$6per vehicle, per day

Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $528 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.

No published validity period. The counties do not state whether a ticket runs 24 hours or a calendar day, so a multi-day stay could be charged either way.

Rates

On request. No rate, no website and no second source were found. Ask Isiolo County or the Shaba gate whether this camp is operating.

What the rate covers is not confirmed. We do not know yet whether meals, drinks and activities are included, so read this as the bed only.

Every figure on this page is in US dollars.

Checked in September 2026. This region publishes almost no rates in the open: nearly every camp hides its tariff behind an enquiry form or a PDF, and several operators' own websites were unreachable on the day we looked. Where that happened we say so and list the place as on request, because we only print a rate the owner has published. Agent and tour operator quotes are deliberately left off this page. County entry is extra everywhere: $85 per non-resident adult per day for Samburu National Reserve, $70 for Buffalo Springs and Shaba, and a conservancy fee instead of either if you stay outside the reserves.

Something this page does not answer?

This camp does not publish a rate, so the only way to a real number is to ask them or us.

Ask us. We answer questions about the park itself, and we can usually tell you which camps work on one route and who to write to. If what you want is a trip someone else arranges, we will say so and hand you to an operator we know, and we earn a commission if that becomes a booking.

Nothing on this site sits behind the form. Every figure we have is already on the page.
