When you think of Kenya ,the mind often drifts to the Maasai Mara or Amboseli's towering views of Mount Kilimanjaro.But hidden in the rugged north lies a destination that is every bit as breathtaking - Samburu.At African Steenbok Safaris,we don't just take you on safaris;we craft journeys that connect you with Kenya's untouched soul - and Samburu is one of our most cherished gems.
A Glimpse into Samburu's Landscape (Why Samburu)
Samburu is characterized by dramatic landscapes: rugged hills,vast plains ,and the lifeline of the region - the Ewaso Ng'iro River.This river not only nourishes the land but also draws an abundance of wildlife to the Samburu National Reserve,one of the region's top attractions.
Unlike the more commercialized parks in southern Kenya,Samburu offers a more intimate wildlife experience.It is home to unique species known as the "Samburu Special Five ".
- Grevy's Zebra
- Somali Ostrich
- Reticulated Giraffe
- Beisa Oryx
- Gerenuk (the giraffe-necked antelope)
Our guides at Steenbok Safaris are specially trained to help you track and understand the behavior of these extraordinary animals - giving you more than just a sighting ,but a story to take home .
