Road trip towards the Jade Sea; deserts and adventure

Description

An 8 Day trip that takes you into some of the remotest parts of Kenya. Starting at Lake Turkana, known as the ‘Jade Sea’ so called for its green waters to the Chalbi Desert, which you cross and meet the local Gabbra people who live in the small Kalacha settlement and will be happy to share guided tours of their village. We move from here to an astonishingly cool and green hilly oasis high above the desert plains head up towards the Lake Paradise and Little lake
