The Great Samburu 🐘🐘
Pack your bags, grab your window seat, and leave the city behind for an amazing road trip into Kenya’s rugged north. From epic roadside views of Mount Ololokwe to the sun-drenched plains of Samburu and Buffalo Springs, this itinerary is packed with wild game drives, cooling swims, and unforgettable nights under the stars. Think crisp mornings looking for the "Special Five," afternoon dips, and evenings filled with the powerful chanting and high-jumping rhythms with the Samburu Moran by the bonfire.
Here is your two-day itinerary:
