Safarilink scheduled flight to Samburu Game Reserve located in Kenya’s Northern Frontier District. Our base for the next 2 nights will be the luxurious Samburu Intrepids Camp.
Situated on the banks of the Uaso Nyiro River in the arid heart of Samburu National Reserve, Samburu Intrepids looks out over riverbanks where herds of elephant, buffalo and zebra come daily to drink – together with the rarer ‘northern species’ of reticulated giraffe, Beisa oryx and long-necked gerenuk antelope. Enjoy a game drive in the afternoon following the river. Return to your camp as the sun slowly sets.

Day 3 - Samburu
A full day in Samburu with morning and afternoon game drives. The scenery here is stunning. Giant outcrops of mountainous rock set amidst a semi desert, with one permanent source of water, the Uaso Nyiro River where elephant and buffalo come to drink. Look out for the resident cheetah, leopards and lions. The birdlife is abundant as well, and your driver-guide will assist you in identification. Engage them in conversations about the legends of the Samburu, their beliefs and traditions.

Day 4 - Samburu to Masai Mara
0800 hrs we will transfer to the airstrip for our Safarilink scheduled flight to the Masai Mara Game Reserve. The 45 minute flight will take you to Olkiombo Airstrip, from where your transfer could well be the first game drive! This is, undoubtedly, Kenya’s finest game reserve and our home for the next 2 nights is located in the very heart. Sitting above a sweeping bend in the Talek River, at the confluence of the Maasai Mara's four game-viewing areas, the camp enjoys one of the most spectacular locations in the entire Mara ecosystem. An Explorer safari offers a unique game-viewing adventure, including three daily game drives with experienced guides, and trips to Maasai villages where we support several community development projects.
Opened in early 2001, Mara Explorer has elevated the art of the African safari to spectacular new heights. This exclusive five-star camp, situated on a thickly forested river in the middle of the Maasai Mara reserve, offers guests the ultimate wilderness retreat, where you can watch elephants or giraffes drinking from the privacy of your verandah – or from your own outdoor Victorian bathtub! Situated in the heart of the reserve, Explorer enjoys prime views of the spectacular wildebeest migration between June and September, and some of the world’s most rewarding Big Cat sightings during the remainder of the year.

Day 5 - Masai Mara
A full day of game viewing within the reserved. Elephant and buffalo abound in the riverine forests, while out on the grasslands impala and Thompson's gazelle can be seen together with their attendant predators such as lion, cheetah, hyena and jackal. Lesser-known species such as topi, hartebeest, waterbuck, eland and as well as many small mammals and bird species create a kaleidoscopic picture of wildlife.

Day 6 - Masai Mara to Lamu
This morning we bid farewell to the friendly camp staff and fly to Nairobi’s Wilson Airport on the scheduled service, where you will be transferred for the flight to Lamu. Departure is at 1315 hrs for the approximately two-hour flight to Manda Bay Airstrip. On arrival, you will be met by the friendly Kipungani staff for your transfer by speed boat. Perched on the edge of Kipungani Bay, where the protected mangroves of Kipungani Creek meet the end of a deserted 12- kilometre beach on the southwestern tip of Lamu Island, Kipungani is the ultimate dream destination for those seeking a true desert-island holiday. With only 14 luxurious chalets you can be assured of personal attention, excellent food and, above all, a relaxing stay.
Kipungani Explorer Lamu, located on the ancient Arabian island-paradise of Lamu, is one of Africa’s most remote, relaxing and richly romantic coastal hideaways. Overlooking the tranquil waters of the sheltered Kipungani Channel, on the remote southwestern tip of Lamu island, Kipungani is a dream destination for those seeking a true away-from-it-all desert island holiday. After a 90-minute flight from Nairobi, you will be met at Manda Island and transported by boat to the lodge, which is located two degrees south of the Equator, on the edge of a deserted 14-kilometer beach.
