Itinerary

   • You'll set out for an afternoon game drive in the reserve. 
   • You'll enjoy twice-daily game drives, during which you will see huge and majestic elephants, lions, leopards, and cheetahs, as well as all of the "Special Five," which include the beisa oryx, reticulated giraffe, Grevy’s zebra, gerenuk antelope, and Somali ostrich. In the hot and arid lowlands of the northern districts of Kenya, featuring doum palms and over 450 species of birds, there are exciting experiences to keep you fascinated over the next day or two.

2. Day 02: Samburu fullday

   • You'll set out for the whole day for an early morning game drive in the Samburu Reserve. Morning is usually the most popular game-viewing time. During the early hours, the temperatures are low, thus providing a favourable atmosphere for the game and the viewer. Lions, cheetahs, and leopards roam the vast grasslands for their next meal—it may be an unsuspecting impala or even a small animal like a warthog. The spectacle of nature unfolding is always unforgettable from the pop-up roof. 

   Dinner and overnight stay will be at the camp/lodge.

The Lake ecosystem is also a habitat for over 400 species of birds. The park has cliff tops that serve as viewpoints for wildlife. This is one of the few places in Kenya where you can see white and black rhinos in the same place, as this park is also a rhino sanctuary. 
   • Later, you will exit the park and drive to Lake Naivasha, a beautiful freshwater lake fringed by thick papyrus almost 13 km across. The lake draws a great range of game to these shores. Giraffes wander among the acacia, buffalos wallow in the swamps, and Colobus monkeys call from the treetops while the lake’s large hippo populations sleep the day in the shallows.
