Samburu National Reserve
- Reserves Description
- Accommodation
Samburu National Reserve is one of the lesser-known national parks, but is nevertheless teeming with life.
Situated alongside the Ewaso Nyiro River, there is plenty to attract wildlife from the surrounding savannah plains.
The reserve is rich in wildlife with an abundance of rare northern specialist species such as the Grevy’s zebra, Somali ostrich, reticulated giraffe, gerenuk and the beisa oryx (also referred to as Samburu Special Five).
The reserve is also home to elephants and large predators such as the lion, leopard and cheetah. ‘Kamunyak’, the miracle lioness that adopted the baby oryx was as a resident in the reserve.
Wild dog sightings are also a common attraction to this unique protected area. Birdlife is abundant with over 450 species recorded.

There is something about safari life that makes you forget all your sorrows and feel as if you had drunk half a bottle of champagne — bubbling over with heartfelt gratitude for being alive.

What Our Guests Are Saying
My family and I were able to go on a Masai Mara Safari, which we had booked through Wild Mara Safaris.
Because of previous travels we knew the importance of an experienced guide and were very happy to find out that Leperes Pilot was outstanding at his job.
He never failed to locate herds and always knew where to come across big cats despite the huge terrain. We were especially impressed by his creative ideas such as letting us exit the vehicle once and stroll around the Mara by foot, where we saw plenty of wilderbeasts and other herbivores. Particularly our kids loved this opportunity. Leperes also had a good intuition for moments to have little photo-shoots. He took many family photos of us near the Mara river, during the sunset, next to beautiful trees and in the never ending plains of the Mara. Besides that were the lodges, in which we stayed of high quality, they always had vegetarian options for my daughter (Elephant Pepper Camp).
All in all were we more than happy to have gone on this safari with Leperes. One of the best experiences we ever had.
The Englbrechts from Bavaria, Germany.
“I had the incredible pleasure to be guided on safari with Leperes Pilot who I call the Wildlife Whisperer. His ability to communicate with the animals provided the most amazing safari experience ever with photo opportunities galore. Having done a few other safaris I can say without question this was the very best. Wild Mara Safaris provides the best in accommodations and unique experiences and I can’t wait to return again. I recommend Wild Mara Safaris to anyone wanting a fantastic safari experience. The best ever!”
