African Paradise Safaris - A.P.S 018: Samburu-L.Nakuru-Masai Mara 6Days

Day 1 Nairobi to Samburu Game Reserve.

Following breakfast, travel north to the remote Samburu Reserve. This is the homeland of the nomadic Samburu people, whose culture attaches great value to tending their livestock of cattle, sheep, goats and camels as their main economic activity. Samburu is rich in species not seen in southern Kenya's more famous parks, such as Grevy's zebra, reticulated giraffe, kudu and gerenuk. You'll also have a good chance at spotting lions, cheetahs and the elusive leopard. The semiarid landscape is dramatic, with the rugged outcrop known as Mt. Ololokwe a prominent feature. The Ewaso Ngiro River, which forms the southern boundary of the reserve, attracts many birds and is a popular watering hole for elephants. Arrive at your Camp site in time for lunch and some relaxation, then take an evening drive for more game dinner and over night at the Campsite. LDBB
