Samburu Flying Safari

The parks of Samburu, Shaba and Buffalo Springs focus around Ewaso Nyiro and provide a sanctuary for the region’s game. Despite the remoteness of the area, it does get surprisingly busy in parts, however there are a couple of stunning lodges in Samburu away from the crowds. Melting waters of Mount Kenya feed rivers which support a surprising array of wildlife. This region is known for its elephants and the endangered Grevy's zebra. This samburu safari by air will cut down the long hours of driving from Nairobi to samburu which is usually around 5-6 hours of driving. The reserve covers an area of 165 Km² and is located around 345Km from Nairobi.
