Samburu Game Reserve 2 Days 1 Night Luxury Flying Safari is a luxury flying safari from Nairobi to Samburu Game Reserve. Travel time by air from Nairobi is about 45 minutes. Activities in Samburu include game viewing, bird watching, and Samburu tribal cultural visits.
Samburu National Reserve is roughly 350 km (217 miles) from Nairobi. The reserve’s topography is mainly open savannah (grassland) with clusters of acacia trees, forest, thorn trees, and grassland vegetation.
Samburu National Reserve was one of the two areas in which conservationists George and Joy Adamson raised Elsa the Lioness. Their story was made famous by the bestselling book and award-winning movie “Born Free”.
The game reserve is renowned for its rare species of animals unique to the park, namely: the long-necked gerenuk, Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, and Beisa onyx.
The elusive Kenya leopard is often known to visit the park, especially in the evenings. Another Kenyan wildlife present in the park includes cheetahs and lions, as well as elephants, buffalo, and hippos.
Birdlife is as plentiful as wildlife at Samburu National Reserve, which boasts over 350 different species of birds including vultures, kingfishers, marabous, bateleurs, guinea fowl, Somali ostriches and others.
