Questions About This Safari

Is this different from the Samburu National Reserve safari?

Yes, this focuses on Samburu pastoralist culture and camel herding traditions in Maralal town, rather than wildlife viewing in the reserve.

Is there an actual camel market?

Camel trading activity varies by day and season; your guide can advise on current market timing.

Is Maralal remote?

It's on the edge of Kenya's more developed regions, requiring a longer drive than standard safari parks, but is reachable by road.
