There are three adjoining reserves, Samburu, Buffalo Springs and Shaba, situated in arid country north of Mount Kenya, and watered by the Uaso Nyiro River and natural springs. It is very scenic, with craggy hills and everywhere Doum palms following the water courses.
Some unusual animal species can be found here; the Reticulated Giraffe, Oryx, Lesser Kudu, Grevy's Zebra, and the Gerenuk, known as the "Giraffe Gazelle". Most of the game viewing takes place around the forests along the river, and this is a good place to spot the elusive leopard. In the afternoon there will be a game drive.

This Reserve is one of Africa's best known wildlife areas, and is part of the Serengeti ecosystem. A land of undulating hills and rolling grasslands it supports a large animal population. Even a casual visitor is treated to the sight of lions in prides sometimes numbering more than thirty beasts with a handsome black maned male in dominance; a Cheetah at great speed runs down its prey; a leopard in the lower branches with its kill.

In the Mara river there are crocodiles sunning themselves on the banks, and Hippos playing in the water. Elephant, Cape Buffalo, Giraffe, Topi, Gazelle are all in abundance and during the months of July to September the great migration of Wildebeest and Zebras spill over from the Serengeti.
The sight of these beasts legging it across the Mara River, avoiding both the crocodiles in the river, and the predators harassing them from behind is amazing, and the topic of some of the most spectacular photography ever seen. Afternoon game drive, Dinner and overnight at Mara Serena Safari Lodge.
