Highlights: Game and Bird Watching, Ewaso Nyiro River, Hippo Point, Culture, Photography, Equator Ceremony among others.
Samburu National Reserve is 90km north of Mt Kenya and about 360km North of Nairobi. It is situated on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River, a Samburu name, meaning the "River of Brown water". This means plenty of water, trees and shade to attract wildlife.
Samburu Reserve would be incomplete without a visit to the hippo pools where large numbers of these enormous creatures wallow in the cooling muds of the River. Ewaso Nyiro River is favorite spot for prides of Lion to rest in the shade. There is also stunning birdlife. The Samburu complex is also home to Samburu herdsmen, who can be seen driving their herds through the dust, dressed in striking red blankets and carrying spears.
