Guided cultural visits to Samburu villages offer insight into the tribe’s customs, ceremonies, and artisanal crafts, providing a deeper understanding of their rich cultural heritage.
In addition to game drives and cultural experiences, Samburu offers a range of outdoor activities for adventurous travelers. Visitors can embark on guided nature walks, birdwatching excursions, and camel safaris, immersing themselves in the region’s natural beauty and wildlife.
Accommodation options in Samburu range from luxury lodges and tented camps overlooking the Ewaso Nyiro River to rustic bush campsites, ensuring a comfortable and authentic safari experience for every traveler.
