Safari summary
Samburu National Reserve is a premium safari destination in Kenya for lovers of authentic game safaris and wildlife, not to mention that this is also a bird watching paradise. Morning and evening game drives gives us a chance to witness large herds of herbivore mammals and their carnivore predators interacting in their natural environment. This Reserve was one of the two areas in which conservationists George Adamson and Joy Adamson raised Elsa made famous in the best-selling book and award winning movie Born Free. The Reserve lies on the banks of the Ewaso Ngiro River in the dry northern part of Kenya. This hot and arid area characterized by a parched landscape of hills and plains. The presence, however, of the river and its shady trees attracts a large number of wildlife. This safari provides you with an opportunity to see wildlife that only lives in the dry northern regions of Kenya.
