Photographic Safari: Mara & Samburu

Karibu! On arrival you are met by your safari specialist and travel on to Masai Mara. The Masai Mara is big-cat country at its finest — golden plains scattered with lion prides, cheetah on the termite mounds and, in season, the drama of the wildebeest crossing the Mara River. Your guide reads the land to put you in the perfect spot.

Today you journey on to Samburu. Rugged, remote and richly rewarding, Samburu is home to the “Special Five” — reticulated giraffe, Grevy’s zebra, gerenuk, Beisa oryx and the vulturine guineafowl — found nowhere else on the classic circuit, along the palm-fringed Ewaso Ng’iro river.

After a final breakfast, transfer to the airport for your onward flight — or extend with a beach finale (just ask). We say kwaheri until your next adventure.
