The next two days are dedicated to exploring the Samburu National Reserve, home to the unique wildlife species known as the “Samburu Special Five”: Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, Somali ostrich, Beisa oryx, and the gerenuk. You’ll embark on early morning and late afternoon game drives when wildlife is most active.

In the evenings, unwind with sundowners—sipping cocktails while watching the sunset over the rugged Samburu landscape. Your evenings back at Soroi Larsens Camp will feature al fresco dining and storytelling by the campfire.

For photography enthusiasts, the camp offers a professional photography hide, allowing you to capture intimate shots of wildlife without disturbing the animals. Take advantage of the golden hours to perfect your photography skills with the guidance of experienced safari photographers.

For an even more memorable experience, opt for an exclusive Star Bed Sleepout—spending one night on an elevated platform under the clear Samburu sky, falling asleep to the sounds of nature.

After breakfast, bid farewell to Samburu as you transfer to Kalama Airstrip for your charter flight back to Wilson Airport, Nairobi, followed by a connecting flight to Taita Hills Airstrip, the gateway to Lumo Community Wildlife Sanctuary.

Upon arrival, you will be driven to Soroi Lions Bluff Lodge, perched high on a hill with stunning panoramic views over the sanctuary and the surrounding savannah. After check-in, relax and enjoy the serene surroundings or take a dip in the infinity pool before dinner, which will be served under the stars in a private bush setting.

Spend the next two days exploring the vast and pristine Lumo Conservancy. The sanctuary, renowned for its big cats, elephants, and abundant birdlife, offers unmatched wildlife experiences in a setting of raw beauty. Morning and evening game drives will be the highlight of each day, taking you through diverse landscapes and offering the chance to witness predators on the hunt, large elephant herds, and vibrant birdlife.

A night game drive is also included, offering the rare opportunity to spot nocturnal wildlife in action, such as leopards, hyenas, and owls. Lumo is a haven for those who appreciate wildlife conservation, as the sanctuary is owned and managed by the local Taita community. During your stay, you’ll have the chance to visit a local village to learn about the Taita people’s culture and their vital role in wildlife conservation.

Photographers will have access to the exclusive underground hide, where you can capture wildlife up-close at the nearby waterhole without being seen. This unique vantage point allows for spectacular photography of wildlife in their natural habitat.

If you prefer some downtime, indulge in a complimentary 30-minute massage at the lodge’s spa or simply enjoy the tranquility of the lodge, with uninterrupted views of the expansive conservancy.

After a leisurely breakfast, take one last look at the breathtaking scenery of Lumo before your transfer to Taita Hills Airstrip for your return flight to Nairobi. Upon arrival at Wilson Airport, you will be transferred to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your onward journey.

As you bid farewell to Kenya, you’ll carry home not just stunning photographs but memories of an extraordinary safari experience filled with wildlife, culture, and luxury.
