Our driver guide from the company will pick you up from the airport or your city accommodation and take you on a scenic drive to Samburu National Reserve, which is located in the north. During the drive, you will pass through the fertile highlands of Kenya, famous for its vibrant agricultural economy of tea and coffee.

You'll stop at the equator line for a demonstration of the north and south, and to use the bathrooms before continuing on your journey to Samburu, where you'll arrive in time for lunch. In the afternoon, you'll go on your first game drive. This will be an opportunity to witness the amazing wildlife conservation haven, famous for an abundance of rare species of animals, such as the Gravy Zebras, Somali Ostrich, Reticulated Giraffes, Gerenuks, and the beautiful Oryx. You'll also learn about the cultural heritage of the Samburu people, who are known as the butterfly people. Finally, you'll retreat to the camp at sunset.

Depart for an early morning game drive, then return to the lodge for a leisurely breakfast. Afterward, pack up and drive south of Samburu to reach the Fairmont Safari Club in time for a late lunch. After finishing your meal, take some time to get familiar with the hotel, which boasts an Orphanage and a nice view of Mount Kenya.

In the late afternoon, take a walk to the nearby animal orphanage that cares for orphaned, injured, and distressed wildlife, giving them a second chance to release these animals back into the wild once they are back to full health. For a one-hour visit, and then return to the hotel for dinner and overnight stay.

After enjoying a leisurely breakfast, you will undertake a short drive to reach Ol Pejeta in good time to begin your game drive. The first part of the game drive will involve a visit to the chimpanzee sanctuary. Following this, you will explore the park, which is home to a large population of black and white rhinos, as well as giraffes, gazelles, elephants, lions, cheetahs, and numerous other animals.

Ol Pejeta is the largest black rhino sanctuary in East Africa and is home to two of the world's last remaining northern white rhinos. It is also the only location in Kenya where you can observe chimpanzees. The sanctuary was established to rehabilitate animals rescued from the black market. After leaving the park, you'll head to Nairobi with a lunch stopover at the renowned Trout Tree restaurant, arriving back in Nairobi late in the evening. You will then be dropped off at the airport or at your preferred location, marking the end of your safari.
