About this tour
The 6-Day Samburu, Lake Nakuru & Masai Mara Safari offers an extraordinary journey through Kenya’s most diverse and wildlife-rich landscapes, blending thrilling game drives, cultural experiences, and breathtaking scenery. This safari is designed for travelers who want to explore Kenya’s iconic destinations while enjoying the comfort of well-selected lodges and camps.
Your adventure begins in Samburu National Reserve, a unique semi-arid wilderness north of the equator. Samburu’s rugged beauty is complemented by its rare wildlife species known as the Samburu Special Five, including the Grevy’s zebra, Somali ostrich, gerenuk, reticulated giraffe, and beisa oryx. The park’s open plains and the life-giving Ewaso Ng’iro River create an ecosystem teeming with predators and prey, making every game drive a thrilling experience. You’ll also have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the vibrant Samburu culture through an optional village visit.
Next, journey to Lake Nakuru National Park, renowned for its shimmering soda lake and an array of birdlife, including the iconic flamingos that create a pink hue along the shores. The park also serves as a sanctuary for both black and white rhinos, offering rare up-close encounters with these endangered giants. The scenic beauty of Lake Nakuru, with its mix of woodlands, grasslands, and rocky escarpments, is unparalleled and ideal for photography enthusiasts.
Finally, head to the world-famous Masai Mara National Reserve, the crown jewel of Kenya’s wildlife reserves. Masai Mara’s vast savannahs are home to an incredible diversity of wildlife, including the Big Five—lions, leopards, elephants, buffaloes, and rhinos. The reserve is a hotspot for predator activity and is globally celebrated for the Great Wildebeest Migration (seasonal), an awe-inspiring natural phenomenon where millions of wildebeests, zebras, and antelopes cross the Mara River in search of greener pastures. Beyond the wildlife, Masai Mara offers cultural interactions with the Maasai people, providing insight into their traditions and harmonious coexistence with nature.
This tour combines adventure, education, and relaxation. Whether it’s the thrill of tracking predators, the serenity of watching flamingos glide across Lake Nakuru, or the magic of witnessing the sun set over the Mara plains, every moment is curated to offer a once-in-a-lifetime safari experience. With professional guides, luxury accommodations, and seamless logistics, this safari guarantees comfort and unforgettable memories.
