NIGHT GAME DRIVES IN SAMBURU NATIONAL RESERVE

NIGHT GAME DRIVES IN SAMBURU NATIONAL RESERVE
Unfortunately, night game drives are not allowed within the main Samburu national reserve but can be arranged privately in reserves and conservancies outside the park. They usually take place between 7pm and 9pm.

You can explore the semi-arid plains of Samburu national reserve by taking part in the day game drives. There are morning game drives, late afternoon and evening game drives. The cooler hours of the day are the best for wildlife viewing as the animals are most active during these times of the day. There are private safari game drives and group safari game drives.
