Meru National Park - Samburu Game Reserve

After breakfast, you will depart for Samburu located in the heart of the semi-desert Samburu National Reserve, along the Rift Valley province. Here elephants, lions, buffalo, giraffes, and zebras move along the river that cuts through this reserve, crocodiles are often found lounging on the riverbanks. Drawing its name from the Samburu people of Kenya who call the area home, and made famous by the Adamsons' who inspired the book and movie Born Free, this comfortable tented camp is a wonderful introduction to safari style in Kenya. They have camel rides led by the local villagers, where you can get a different vantage point of the area and the wildlife as well as support the community. The Samburu are well-known star gazers so taking part in a star gazing experience to learn from them is well worth it. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at Samburu Sopa Lodge or equivalent.
