Summary:

This camel trekking safari is staged in the northern Kenya wilds. The safari is designed for those hardy adventure travelers. You ride or walk through the bush in tune with the sounds of nature. Your guides are the semi nomadic Samburu, some of Kenya’s colourful indigenous tribes people. The camel train and surviving in the rough wilderness is for them a way of life. You will see some wildlife and spectacular scenery too.
