unique species of special five: Gravy Zebra, Reticulated Giraffe, Oryx Besia,
Gerenuk, Blue necked Somali ostrich, the three cats lion, cheetah, leopard,
pancake tortoise and others like Greater and Lesser Kudu.
Itinerary:
Day
1: Nairobi – Samburu
Depart Nairobi for Samburu National reserve
driving through central Kenya region to the semi-arid northern Kenya. Due to
the dry climate, grasses are sparse, making animals easier to spot. Meanwhile,
the Ewaso Ng’iro River, which borders the reserve, provides a year-round water
supply. These two factors make for a great game-viewing experience. After
lunch, enjoy an afternoon game drives where you have the chance to see rare
animals you will not see in other parts of the world. “Special 5,” this
includes Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, Somali ostrich, Oryx Beisa, and
the gerenuk, a long-necked antelope that feeds while standing on its hind feet.
Dinner and overnight

2: Samburu

great place for bird watching, with over 300 species. During your afternoon
game drive, you can also opt to visit the Samburu village and learn the Samburu
community way of life. Dinner and Overnight
