DAY 1: NAYUSERE CAMP / TUMAREN
» A cool drink will greet you in camp after a short drive from our local airstrip or from Nanyuki if you choose to use the scheduled Nairobi / Nanyuki flight
» A beautiful outcrop of stone overshadows the camp and you will have seen the feature from miles as you approached in the vehicle
» The local Laikipia Masai call these rocks Nayusere and stone chippings suggest that they have been used as a camp for millennia
» We too will use the rocks starting with a refreshing lunch and short rest in our classic roomy safari tents
» After lunch we will head out on a short walk looking for game and getting a feel for the country
» As the sun begins to set we will find ourselves at the crest of Nayusere and there a blanket with drinks and bitings
» As we enjoy our sundowners we will continue to spot game from our vantage and watch as the baboons come back to roost on the face of the rock
» A short descent will find us back in camp for a delicious hardy dinner
DAY 2: NARARA CAMP
» From Nayusere we will head out early after breakfast so to see as much game as possible on our walk north towards Narara Camp
» Narara means Cheetah in Masai and the camp was given this name because of a large male that has been seen in the area
» Along our walk we will walk across large plains as well as mixed bush
» Herds of Zebra, Oryx and Grant's gazelle predominate on the large plains with smaller numbers of Jackson's Hartebeest and Thompson's Gazelle
» In the mixed bush we find Dikdiks, Gerenuk, Impala and Lesser Kudu if we are lucky enough to see them
» At camp we will arrive in time for lunch
» The pack camels with our camp will have made a more direct route than us and so they will have arrived before us and set up most of camp before our arrival
» After lunch we will follow our routine of resting, reading or badminton for the energetic and later another walk in the evening to a pretty spot for sundowners
DAY 3: TUMAREN EWASO CAMP
» Today we will be heading down toward the Ewaso Nyiro River, which runs along the eastern edge of the Laikipia Plateau and then turns eastward toward Samburu National Reserve
» Along the way we will be looking for Eland, Steinbuck, Giraffe, Waterbuck, Grevy’s Zebra as well as all the tough-to-see predators such as Wild Dog, Hyena, Lion, Leopard or Cheetah
» We will also be looking from high open points for Elephants as we as the shy Buffalo that hide by day in thick bush
» For safety reasons we carry a gun on every safari and we never walk blindly through thick bush country where we can't know what is around the next corner
» When we arrive at the Ewaso Nyiro we may want to take a quick swim before lunch
» After lunch, our rest and sundowners on a high rocky hillside we will return to our camp on the river for dinner and a toast to our adventure
DAY 4: END OF SAFARI
» Say goodbye in the morning to our team and after breakfast we will drive to our local airstrip or to Nanyuki for the Scheduled flight to Nairobi
