Tour Overview

Experience a luxury lodge safari to the captivating Samburu Game Reserve, renowned for its rare and distinctive wildlife species such as the beisa oryx, long-necked gerenuk, Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, and the blue-legged Somali ostrich—collectively known as the “Samburu Special Five.” This reserve is also home to the Samburu people, semi-nomadic pastoralists closely related to the Maasai.

Set against a rugged, dramatic backdrop, the Ewaso Nyiro River marks the southern edge of the reserve, attracting hippos, crocodiles, and a wide array of animals that gather to drink during the heat of the day. Game drives offer opportunities to spot lions, leopards, cheetahs, buffalo, and a variety of plains game. Your journey begins in Nairobi, with luxurious accommodation provided in upscale tented camps and lodges.
