6 Days 5 Nights Kenya Fly-in Safari Samburu Masai Mara is a good value safari that incorporates two of Kenya’s finest national reserves – the remote Samburu and the legendary Masai Mara – this itinerary allows you to experience the abundant wildlife of the Great Rift Valley.
This 6-day luxury fly-in safari package trip begins in Samburu National Reserve, where several large mammal species common to Kenya’s northern plains can be found, including long-necked gerenuk, Grevy’s zebra, beisa oryx, reticulated giraffe and magnificent herds of elephant.
Samburu is a remote, arid wilderness of scrub desert and scorched savannah coloured with sandy creams, muted greens and earthen ochre; perfect camouflage for its wildlife and bird species rarely found elsewhere. Large herds of elephants are attracted by the Ewaso Ng’iro River, which bisects the reserve.
Spend two nights here, exploring the semi-arid landscapes on a combination of bush walks and game drives.
The next three nights are spent in the outstanding wildlife-rich Masai Mara National Reserve, where over 450 species of bird have been recorded. Aside from the fantastic birdlife, you may also encounter Mara’s dominant predators – lion, leopard and cheetah – as well as their prey: Thomson’s and Grant’s gazelle, topi and eland.
Kenya’s finest wildlife sanctuary, the Masai Mara is a paradise of gently rolling grasslands studded with acacia trees. Remaining as the ancestral homelands of the Masai, a curious harmony between man and wildlife exists that allows a route for large migrations and a home for predators and plains wildlife.
