After meet and greet, he will escort you to your car and commence drive to Samburu National Reserve arriving for lunch at the camp. After check in and lunch, you will embark on an afternoon game drive or an optional visit to a local Samburu village and return to the camp at dusk for dinner and overnight stay at Lion’s Cave Camp Samburu.

Day 2: Full day Game drives in Samburu National Reserve

After early breakfast at the camp, join your safari driver guide and depart for full day game viewing drive with picnic lunch boxes to Samburu National Reserve, famous for its truly wild semi-arid landscape, and the large concentration of wild animals and bird-life. Together with the adjoining Shaba and Buffalo Springs national reserves, Samburu is popular for hosting the rare Northern-Kenya animal species (Gerenuk, Reticulated Giraffe, Grevy’s zebra, Beisa Oryx and Somali Ostrich) which are not found in the other popular parks and reserves in Kenya. It is also home to all the African big cats (lion, cheetah and leopard), alongside other big game including elephants, buffaloes, warthogs, hippos, impala, water-buck and many others. Samburu is also a renowned bird watching haven, with hundreds of bird species resident here. These include kingfisher, bee-eaters, tawny eagle, guinea-fowl, yellow throated spur-fowl, lilac-breasted roller, red-billed hornbill, secretary bird, Verreaux’s eagle, superb starling, yellow-billed hornbill and vultures.

Private safaris offer complete flexibility for Special Five tracking, customized timing for river wildlife viewing, personalized photography opportunities, and ability to adjust for weather/animal movements. Essential for serious photographers, families with children, or travelers with specific interests in northern species.
How does Samburu differ from Masai Mara?
