Samburu National Reserve, located in Isiolo, Kenya, is a renowned wildlife sanctuary that offers a unique safari experience. This reserve is characterized by its arid, semi-desert environment and is home to a variety of distinctive wildlife species, including the "Special Five": the Grevy's zebra, Somali ostrich, reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, and the Beisa oryx. The Ewaso Ng'iro River, which flows through the reserve, attracts an abundance of wildlife, providing excellent opportunities for game viewing. In addition to its rich biodiversity, Samburu is also noted for its cultural heritage, with the indigenous Samburu people maintaining their traditional way of life in and around the reserve.
