Embark on a captivating 5-Day Samburu–Lake Nakuru & Masai Mara Safari Adventure with Toto Tembo Safaris. This mid-range, private tour traverses three of Kenya’s most iconic wildlife landscapes: the arid beauty of Samburu National Reserve, the bird-rich haven of Lake Nakuru, and the vast plains of Masai Mara National Reserve. Spot the legendary Samburu Special Five—Gerenuk, Reticulated Giraffe, Grevy’s Zebra, Somali Ostrich, and Beisa Oryx—venture beneath canopies of flamingos at Lake Nakuru, and witness the drama of the Great Migration in Masai Mara. Accommodations are in well-appointed lodges and tented camps, game drives are conducted in pop-up roof 4×4 vehicles, and the entire itinerary can be tailored to your preferences.
