Samburu National Reserve

Breakfast is early morning. Then, you'll get out for an early morning game drive in the reserve. This is usually the most popular wildlife viewing time. During the early hours, temperatures are low, thus providing a favorable atmosphere both for the game and the viewer. Lion, cheetah, and leopard roam the vast grasslands in search of their next meal, it may be an unsuspecting impala or even a small one like the warthog. Whatever the players, the spectacle of nature unfolding is always awe-inspiring!
You'll enjoy a full-day game drive till the evening.
You'll return to the camp/lodge before dark for dinner and an overnight stay at Sopa Lodge.
