Overview

Now this is a ‘real – deal’ way to start our 5 days kenya safari!  At the majestic Samburu National Reserve.  Prepare yourself for a rewarding cultural experience with the local tribes and exciting animal encounters. Samburu’s dominant feature is the Ewaso Ngiro River, which slices through the otherwise bone-dry country. The river acts as a magnet for thirsty animals, and large numbers of elephants, Grevy’s zebras, giraffes and lions gather along the riverbanks.
