Detailed Itinerary
Day
1: Nairobi –
Drive to
Mt. Kenya/ Aberdare National Park (Forest Tree Lodge)
Our adventure
today begins with a lovely drive to Aberdare National
Park. We stop for pictures along the way as we travel
overland through plantations of coffee and tea to
The Aberdare Country Club, nestled on the slopes of
Mweiga Hill.
After
lunch and afternoon high tea, set off for the Ark
tree lodge, located in the forest on mountain slopes
of the Aberdare Mountains at 7,000 feet. This outstanding
lodge offers high altitude game viewing, including
animals that are rarely encountered elsewhere: giant
forest hog, bush pig, tree hyrax, large spotted genet,
and the elusive bongo.
Wildlife
can be observed from different levels – and
from outside where you can see, hear and smell everything
and inside where you can sit with a cup of tea and
stay warm and cozy.
You
can put in a request to be awakened during the night
if your favorite animals show up. A herd of Elephants
might be just feet away and if you are lucky, a Leopard
or large male Lion might put in an appearance.
Overnight at the Ark Forest Lodge or Treetop

to Samburu
Game Reserve
This morning we travel by road to Kenya’s northern
frontier. Wild and rugged, Samburu is fiercely beautiful
with its arid savannahs watered by the lovely Uaso
Nyiro River. It is also one of Kenya’s most
protected areas and home to species only found north
of the equator, from the reticulated giraffe to Grevy’s
zebras and Beisa Oryxes.
We
also enjoy Larsens Tented Camp or Samburu Intrepids
Camp, our luxurious hostelry set beneath a canopy
of acacia trees along the banks of the river.

3: Samburu Game Reserve
Dawn breaks in golden bands as we start our day in
the bush by scanning the river from our tent’s
veranda with a cup of steaming coffee in hand. Before
the dew is off the grass, we’re off in pursuit
of the elephants, lions, leopards, and cheetahs that
thrive in the reserve’s grasslands and acacia
woodlands.
And
so the day is spent in alternating pursuits of exploration
in the bush and relaxation in our cozy Camp/ Lodge.
