Nairobi to Samburu NP

On the first morning of your Samburu tour, depart from Nairobi city hotel bright and early around 7:00 AM. The road trip to Samburu National Reserve is an adventure in itself, taking about 5-6 hours. As you journey north, the changing landscapes and occasional rest stops for refreshments keep the excitement alive. Upon reaching Samburu, settle into your chosen lodge or camp, and relish a fulfilling lunch. The afternoon is reserved for your first game drive in the reserve. The distinctive wildlife of Samburu, including the Grevy's zebra and reticulated giraffe, greet you in their unique habitat. The warm hues of the setting sun provide an excellent backdrop for photography. Wind down the day with a scrumptious dinner at the lodge, sharing tales of your wildlife encounters.
