Expert tips

Samburu Game Reserve (40,800 acres/16,500 hectares) lies to the North of lush mountain woodland and rugged ranges that average only 14” (350mm) of rain a year. Through it flows the Ewaso Nyiro River, which is rimmed with towering river acacias and palms. Crocodiles can be seen swimming in the river along with the hippo. The river and several springs attract much wildlife, especially in dry periods. Mammals restricted to the Masai arid zone are found here, such as Gravy’s zebra, the reticulated giraffe, the beisa Oryx, Guenther’s dik-dik and the gerenuk. Also present are lesser kudus, elephants, grant’s gazelles, lions, cheetahs, leopards and 350 bird species, including the blue-flushed Somali ostrich and the bristle-crowned starling.

Expert tips

Day spent game-viewing in the reserve in a camps private 4x4 vehicle. With over 450 species of birds and animal species,  Explore the plains and rolling hills for a chance to spot the elephant, black-manned lion, leopard, buffalo, cheetah, and with diverse species of hoofed animals. Lunch, dinner and overnight at your camp.

Masai Mara offers an absolutely unique variety of animals. The reason is that this hilly region is both humid and fertile, and is crossed by the Mara and Talek rivers, full of crocodiles and hippos. The abundance of water and excellent availability of food are the reasons why the Masai Mara, which in fact is a continuation of the Tanzanian Serengeti National Park, has the greatest population of wild animals in the whole of Africa. There is a particularly dramatic “spectacle” from July to October, the annual migration of huge herds of Gnus and zebras. Predators such as Hyenas, Jackals, Leopards and Lions of course, closely follow these herds. Gigantic herds of over 200 buffaloes can also be observed. Plenty of food is available for elephants, giraffes, and the many species of antelopes.
