Privately guided safaris to off the beaten track destinations in Kenya's mysterious Northern Frontier

Breathtaking scenes from the Jade Sea. That name comes from its striking greenish-blue water. Lake Turkana is the world’s largest permanent desert lake. It also happens to be the world’s largest alkaline lake - featuring a high pH level of around 9.2 to 9.4 and moderate salinity (around 2,500 ppm).

The surroundings areas boast of rock lava, volcanic calderas, and harsh arid terrain. A boat exploration on Lake Turkana is a fantastic opportunity to explore this stunning part of Northern Kenya.

Scenes from Ngare Ndare Forest, Northern Kenya - a lush indigenous forest at the northern foothills of Mt. Kenya. Azure pools glisten at the bottom of waterfalls and 200 years old trees stretch into the canopy supporting a rich variety of bird and animal life.

Just a puff adder casually crossing the road in Turbi, Marsabit County. What would you do if you encountered a snake in the wild?

We've received some good rains in the greater Chalbi Desert landscape (Maikona, Hurri Hills, Kalacha, North Horr, Balesa, and Dukana) this morning from 4.00 am to about 8.00 am. Lagh Balal has been full and flowing for a while now - thanks to similarly good rains from the Ethiopian Highlands just across the border. This water all ends up in the Chalbi Desert, which is now a seasonal lake for the next few months - a normal phenomenon here every rainy season. Chalbi Desert serves as some sort of natural flood risk reduction mechanism - especially from occasional flash floods. While the rains here aren't of the same magnitude as what the rest of the country is experiencing, the roads are as muddy as you can imagine. You need a good off-road machine to get you through some muddy patches. The long chassis game viewer landcruisers might struggle here right now. Short chassis 76 landcruisers, landrovers, and patrols recommended.
