Tour Plan

Day 1: Nairobi → Samburu – Welcome to the North

Depart Nairobi early and journey through Kenya’s central highlands, passing scenic coffee and tea plantations before descending into Samburu’s rugged terrain. Arrive in time for lunch and later embark on your first game drive in search of elephants, lions, and Samburu’s unique “Special Five.”

Day 2: Full-Day Game Drive – The Special Five Encounter

Spend the day exploring Samburu’s rich wildlife zones. The Ewaso Nyiro River attracts an abundance of animals – from crocodiles basking in the sun to herds of elephants cooling off in the water. Keep your camera ready for leopard sightings in the acacia trees and colorful birdlife across the reserve.

Day 3: Morning Game Drive → Nairobi

Enjoy a sunrise game drive as the park comes alive with activity, then return to the lodge for breakfast before beginning your journey back to Nairobi, carrying with you memories of Samburu’s wild beauty.
