"A world-famous reserve that draws large numbers of visitors for the dramatic Great Migration and is a particularly popular destination for first-time safari-goers." - Nicholas DeRenzo
"A destination for luxury safaris where travelers can combine wildlife viewing with relaxation — boutique camps and lodges such as Saruni Samburu offer wellbeing facilities including a pool, spa, and dining areas. After morning game drives, guests can decompress with spa treatments or wine while taking in expansive views." - Andrea Romano Andrea Romano Andrea Romano is a writer and editor in New York City.

Key benefits cited were UPF 50+ protection during late-afternoon sun, lightweight breathability and sweat-wicking for hot daytime conditions, adjustable length to cool off as needed, and durable, stain-resistant fabric that allowed multiple days of wear without frequent washing. The pants’ six pockets and rugged construction made them convenient for on-the-go wildlife outings and extended field days." - Susan Brickell Susan Brickell Susan Brickell is a Director at Travel + Leisure, and guides the strategy of the site's product reviews, launches, trends, sale events, celebrity coverage, first-person destination packing lists, and more.
