Samburu, Shaba & Buffalo Springs National Reserves


Contact one of the experts at Mahlatini to help you plan your trip of a lifetime to Kenya.

Located just north of the equator in the rain-shadow of Mt. Kenya on the banks of the Ewaso Ngiro River these 3 reserves protect 300 sq km of mountains, plains, savannah and scrub desert. Not particularly well known these reserves offer an opportunity to enjoy the Kenyan wilderness away from the crowds. Important elephant migration corridors exist in this heartland, as well as northern specialty species like reticulated giraffe, Somali ostrich, beisa oxryx and gernuk. Healthy numbers of predators are frequently seen here. Lions, hyenas and leopards live along side avifauna, wild dogs, Grevy's Zebra and black rhinoceros. A unique activity on offer at Samburu is a trekking safari. Samburu warriors will guide you through the rugged hills. This is your chance to track elephant on foot, follow a honey-guide bird through the bush to find the hidden nests and learn the survival techniques of the Samburu people.
