Samburu Game Reserve lies on the arid edges of Kenya’s expansive Northern Frontier District. This region is home to the Samburu people, a pastoralist community closely related to the Maasai. Renowned as a safari destination, Samburu boasts a rugged and striking landscape. The Ewaso Nyiro River marks its southern boundary, providing a habitat for crocodiles and hippos while attracting numerous animals seeking water during the hot days. A safari in Samburu offers opportunities to spot wildlife such as buffalo, lions, leopards, cheetahs, and other plains animals. The reserve is also known for its “Special Five” species: the Beisa oryx, long-necked gerenuk, Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, and Somali ostrich with its blue legs. Join us for an unforgettable journey filled with remarkable memories of this unique destination.
