3-Day Samburu Safari

Embark on a thrilling 3-Day Samburu Safari, an unforgettable journey into Kenya’s wild northern frontier. Samburu National Reserve is famed for its striking landscapes, vibrant culture, and rare wildlife found only in this region.

Your Samburu Safari begins with a scenic drive from Nairobi to the arid plains of northern Kenya, where palm-fringed rivers cut across red-sand savannas. Upon arrival, enjoy your first game drive in search of Samburu’s unique Special Five — the reticulated giraffe, Grevy’s zebra, Somali ostrich, beisa oryx, and gerenuk.

Spend the second day on sunrise and sunset drives guided by expert rangers. Spot elephants, lions, and leopards along the Ewaso Nyiro River, or visit a Samburu village to experience authentic traditions and colorful dances.
