Long Weekend Trips (4 nights)
Here we would suggest combining 2 nights at Nkoteiya in the Far North with 2 nights at either Koija Starbeds or Olgaboli Bandas. Don’t forget to bring all your food and drink!
Day 1 – Leave Nanyuki and head off up the Dol Dol – Ol jogi – Mpala road towards either Koija Starbeds or Olgaboli Bandas. This drive will take you approximately 2 hours. Lunch at the Banda and again, your choice of relaxing after the drive or taking part in one of the activities. Dinner and overnight at the Banda.
Day 2 – All meals at the Bandas, activities as you choose. Camel trekking, game drives, cultural immersions, bird watching and unwinding.
Day 3 – After your breakfast, head further norther via Loisaba to Nkoteiya lodge. You will be received with amazing views of Samburu rollings in Nanapa and Meibae. Lunch, dinner and overnight in Nkoteiya.
Day 4 – Spend the day as you choose; you could simply relax or go for a nature walk with one of the rangers; if its on Tuesday or Saturday you will be lucky to have thrilling market days in Kirimon or Lekuru markets nearby. They sell handcrafted Samburu wares.
Day 5. After breakfast, you can choose to drive back via same route or alternatively dare Wamba-isiolo as take a photo with the signature Mt. Ololokwe as you head to Nanyuki. Alternatively, you can take the easy longer Kisima, Poster route back to Nanyuki or aim to Capital city via Nyahururu.
