A safari to Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya, home to species found nowhere else in the country's more famous southern parks, including Grevy's zebra, reticulated giraffe and gerenuk.
Samburu's arid, semi-desert landscape supports a distinct set of wildlife often called the 'Samburu Special Five' - Grevy's zebra, reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, Somali ostrich and beisa oryx - none of which are typically seen in the Masai Mara or Amboseli. It's also one of Kenya's quieter reserves, with noticeably fewer vehicles than the southern circuit.
