Visitors may see unique northern Kenya species such as Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, Beisa oryx, Somali ostrich, elephants, lions, and many other animals.

Guests stay at Sentrim Samburu Lodge or a similar lodge/camp offering comfortable rooms, meals, and easy access to the reserve.

Samburu National Reserve can be visited year-round, but the dry seasons (June–October and January–March) are especially good for wildlife viewing because animals gather around water sources.
