Overview
Discover the heart of northern Kenya, privately and at your own pace. Starts and ends in Nanyuki. From Nasuulu Lodge, on a hillside above the river with its own infinity pool, you'll explore Samburu and Buffalo Springs. Look for the Special Five, elephants, lion, leopard and cheetah, mostly with no one else around.
That wildlife is here for a reason. In Nasuulu Conservancy, four communities, the Samburu, Turkana, Borana and Somali, share one land in peace. Your local guides read the tracks with you and share their traditions, with an optional village visit and, one evening, a firelight dinner in the riverbed.
