If you’re looking for a route that encompasses all the sparkling, awe-inspiring highlights of Kenya – look no further. Aberdares to Samburu Safari a Bucket-list adventures? Iconic wildlife? Mesmerising landscapes and a plethora of activities? This epic route through some of Kenya’s most popular parks and reserves offers it all.
Aberdares National Park to a lush, highland park with grand hikes, dazzling waterfalls and unique flora and fauna.
Lying within easy striking distance of Nairobi, Aberdare Park is a world away from the wide savanna-lands of Kenya’s other protected areas. It’s an ethereal place of dense rainforest and lush grasslands cut through by wide rivers, ravines and 300-metre-high waterfalls. The park is one of the smallest on the continent, but don’t let that put you off. In its forests, colobus and vervet monkeys swing through the branches, and rare bongo, bushpig, giant hog and black rhino snuffle in the undergrowth. You’ll find Africa’s classics too – lion, buffalo and elephant.
Samburu National Park, discover the culture of the Samburu and traverse dramatic desert terrain on horse- and camel-back.
Wild, rugged and enticingly empty (of tourists that is, not wildlife) Samburu National Reserve is a place of baked red earth, extraordinary vegetation and unsurpassed beauty. Cleaved in half by the Ewaso Nyiro river, there’s more water around than you might think, given the stark landscape, and the ribbons of green that hug the winding waterway attract elephant, buffalo and zebra. Look a little bit harder and you’ll find lion reposing in the shade of the golden tamarinds and leopard darting amongst the acacias. This tour Aberdares to Samburu Safari is a desert wilderness that is absolutely worth discovering, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
