6 Days Safari Samburu, Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara

Safari Overview

Embark on an extraordinary 6-day safari adventure through some of Kenya’s most contrasting and captivating landscapes — from the arid beauty of Samburu, to the bird-filled shores of Lake Nakuru, and the rolling savannahs of the legendary Masai Mara.

Your journey begins in Samburu National Reserve, home to rare northern species such as the Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, and Somali ostrich — collectively known as the Samburu Special Five. Then head south to Lake Nakuru National Park, a sanctuary for rhinos and a birdwatcher’s paradise nestled in the Great Rift Valley. Finally, experience the wildlife spectacle of the Masai Mara, famed for its abundant big cats, vast herds, and — during migration season — the dramatic river crossings.

This 6-day safari offers a rich blend of unique ecosystems, diverse wildlife, and unforgettable scenery — perfect for travelers looking to experience the best of Kenya’s natural heritage.
