Buffalo Springs Game Reserve

1. Buffalo Springs Game Reserve Safari – Kenya’s Hidden Safari Paradise

Buffalo Springs Game Reserve offers a peaceful, wildlife-rich safari experience in Northern Kenya. Famous for its natural springs, Grevy’s zebras, and scenic landscapes, it’s ideal for family trips, photographers, and safari lovers seeking uncrowded game viewing.

Nestled on the southern banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River, Buffalo Springs Game Reserve is one of Northern Kenya’s most scenic and tranquil safari destinations. Adjacent to Samburu and Shaba National Reserves, Buffalo Springs offers incredible wildlife diversity without the crowds. The reserve is named after an oasis of clear, spring-fed pools that sustain its dry savannah ecosystem. Safari-goers here enjoy exceptional sightings of Grevy’s zebras, reticulated giraffes, Beisa oryx, Somali ostriches, elephants, and lions, along with over 365 bird species — making it a birder’s haven. The landscape of Buffalo Springs Reserve features open plains, acacia woodlands, and palm-lined riverbanks, perfect for peaceful morning or evening game drives. Because it shares an ecosystem with Samburu National Reserve, it offers a seamless safari circuit ideal for 3 to 7-day Northern Kenya tours.
