Day 1
Depart Nairobi early, driving north through the central highlands and passing lush coffee and tea plantations en route to Samburu. Arrive in time for lunch at your lodge, set along the Ewaso Nyiro River. In the afternoon, embark on your first game drive in this rugged, semi-arid reserve known for its "Samburu Special Five"—Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, Somali ostrich, gerenuk, and Beisa oryx—along with elephants, lions, and leopards. Return for dinner and overnight at the lodge. Mid-range lodge located inside Samburu NR Lunch & dinner (Breakfast not included) Drinking water (Other drinks not included)
Day 2
Awake to the rugged beauty of Samburu, where the Ewaso Nyiro River winds through arid hills and acacia‑dotted plains. Begin with an early morning game drive, when predators are most active and the light is perfect for spotting elephants, lions, and leopards. Samburu is renowned for its “Special Five” — Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, Somali ostrich, Beisa oryx, and the long‑necked gerenuk, species unique to this northern region. Return to the lodge for breakfast and a short rest before continuing deeper into the reserve. By mid‑day, enjoy a picnic lunch along the riverbanks, watching crocodiles bask and birdlife flourish. The afternoon reveals Samburu’s contrasting landscapes: rocky outcrops, open savannah, and lush riverine forests alive with wildlife. As the sun begins to set, embark on another game drive, capturing the reserve’s dramatic scenery bathed in golden light. Return to camp for dinner and overnight, reflecting on a day immersed in Samburu’s wild charm. Mid-range lodge located inside Samburu NR All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)
Day 3
After breakfast, depart for Ol Pejeta Conservancy, nestled between the foothills of Mount Kenya and the Aberdare Ranges. Arrive for lunch at the lodge before heading out on an afternoon game drive. Ol Pejeta is famed for its high rhino population, including the last two northern white rhinos, and offers the chance to spot the Big Five. Visit the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary (extra cost) and learn about their rescue mission. Return to the lodge for dinner and a night under the stars.

I strongly recommend the Jorado Safari. Teresa the person who organized our itinerary was very polite, quick response. Our guide Felix was the best and made our trip to Kenya. I did a lot of search before booking the Safari and Jorado had the best price. My boyfriend and I did Amboseli, Tsavo West and Tsavo East. We enjoyed each minute of our experiencia. My trip of my life Thank you so much Jorado

Our 7-day Kenyan Midrange Safari with Jorado Safaris was an incredible journey! Raggen was extremely attentive during the planning process, ensuring every detail matched our preferences. John, our guide, was fantastic—his knowledge of Kenya’s wildlife and landscapes was unmatched. We explored iconic parks like Amboseli and Maasai Mara, encountering majestic elephants, cheetahs, and even a rare leopard. The midrange accommodations were comfortable and well-situated, offering breathtaking views and delicious meals. Every moment of this trip felt magical, and we couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience.
