Day 2 – Full Day Exploring Samburu
After breakfast, continue your adventure in this remarkable Kenya Safari Package with a morning game drive in Samburu National Reserve. The reserve is well known for its rare species collectively known as the Samburu Special Five, which are rarely found in other parts of Kenya.
With its remote location and fewer visitors, Samburu provides a more intimate safari experience compared to many other parks included in traditional Kenya Safari Package itineraries.
Return to camp mid-morning for brunch and relaxation. Spend some time watching wildlife along the river or simply enjoying the peaceful environment of the camp.
In the afternoon, head out for another exciting game drive in search of lions, leopards, cheetahs, and large elephant herds that thrive along the riverbanks. As evening approaches, enjoy sundowners in the bush before returning to camp for dinner.

The landscape of Samburu is particularly striking, characterized by palm-lined riverbanks, open savannah, and rocky hills that provide dramatic scenery for wildlife viewing and photography.
Return to camp for lunch and relaxation before heading out again in the afternoon. Guests may choose to enjoy another game drive or visit a nearby Samburu village, where you can learn about the traditional culture, customs, and colorful beadwork of the Samburu people.
In the evening, gather for sundowners overlooking the river followed by dinner and storytelling around the campfire, a perfect way to conclude another day of your Kenya Safari Package adventure.
