After breakfast, check out with an en-route game drive, proceeding to Samburu National Reserve located in Northern Kenya. Arrive in Samburu in time for lunch, check in, and have a short rest. Later, have an evening game viewing in search of the Big Five.
Samburu is famous for its truly wild, semi-arid landscape, and the large concentration of wild animals and birdlife. 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 of the African big cats (lion, cheetah and leopard), alongside other big game including elephants, buffaloes, warthogs, hippos, impalas, waterbucks and many others.
Later, return to the camp for dinner and overnight.

Have an early morning game drive before leaving Samburu for Meru National Reserve with scenic views of Mt. Kenya’s peak if the morning weather is clear.

Meru is blessed with abundant rainfall and numerous permanent water courses flowing down from Mt. Kenya which support a luxuriant jungle of forest, bush, swamp and tall grasses. This provides fodder and shelter to a wide variety of herbivores and their predators. You will enjoy an en-route lunch.
Wildlife found in this park include elephant, lion, antelope, cheetah, lesser kudu, eland, waterbuck, Grant’s and Thomson’s gazelle, oryx, buffalo, reticulated giraffe, and Grevy’s zebra. Dinner and overnight will be at Ikweta Safari Camp.
