Samburu National Reserve

Samburu National Reserve, in Samburu County, Kenya, is protected wilderness managed for wildlife first and visitors second — which is exactly why the game viewing is so good. Expect long, unhurried drives, big skies and sightings that feel earned.

It sits within one of Africa's great travel countries — Kenya: The original safari, still magnificent. Most travelers weave Samburu National Reserve into a longer route taking in Masai Mara, Amboseli elephants and Rift Valley lakes.

The operators on SafariSuite run Samburu National Reserve regularly and price it from their live rate sheets — park fees, seasonal lodge rates and transfers included — so any itinerary you see here reflects what the trip actually costs.
