On your first game drive in Samburu, you'll have the chance to spot unique wildlife such as reticulated giraffes, Grevy's zebras, and elusive leopards. Return to your lodge for a delightful dinner and relax by the campfire, sharing stories of your day's adventures.

Samburu - Aberdare

After breakfast, drive to Aberdare National Park, arriving at the Aberdare Country Club in Nyeri at midday. After lunch at the Country Club, we transfer with the lodge vehicle to The Ark. Located just inside the gates of the park, The Ark overlooks waterholes and a saltlick. The lodge rises straight and stark on stilts and is solely dedicated to game viewing. The possibility of seeing wild animals up close has created The Ark tradition.

The Aberdare National Park is part of the Aberdare Mountain Range, a fascinating region of Kenya. Mountain ranges and peaks soar to around 14,000 feet and are home to leopards, lions, colobus monkeys, bongos, red duikers, sunis, birds, and rhinos. Dinner and overnight will be at The Ark Lodge.
