Samburu 3 Days Safari Itinerary

 

Day 1: Nairobi – Samburu National Park

Our adventure starts early morning with us picking you up from Nairobi and driving to Samburu Park. The drive is a fairly long one but still an amazing experience. Along the way, you’ll see agricultural-rich lands transition into arid savannahs. Long before we reach the park, we may start seeing wildlife roaming the lands and sometimes crossing the road.

We finally reach the park and start our Samburu Kenya safari after clearance at the gate. The park is beautiful to behold right from the onset. Soon after, we’ll be on our evening safari tour which provides the best chances of viewing big cats. Our Samburu safari continues towards the Ewaso Nyiro river where the Samburu people bring their cattle for water.

If we’re lucky, we may see the special five of Samburu: reticulated giraffe, Somali ostrich, Beisa oryx, Grevy’s zebra, and gerenuk.

We head back to our lodge/camp by the river for dinner and an overnight stay.
