Sarah L. Peters

★★★★☆

“Sasaab Camp is a slice of heaven in the heart of Kenya’s wilderness. The panoramic views of the Ewaso Nyiro River took my breath away every morning. Game drives and bush dining were top-notch, though it’s worth noting that the Wi-Fi can be a bit spotty—then again, who needs Wi-Fi when you’re surrounded by such majestic beauty? A solid 4 stars from me!”
