On arrival into Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, you will be transferred to Wilson Airport for your flight to Meru, from where you will be transferred to Elsa’s Kopje. View rhino in their natural habitat from the comfort of your cottage, each uniquely designed and with spectacular views. Elsa’s Kopje also boasts an open bar, lounge and dining room with an infinity pool overlooking the Meru plains. Other major attractions include Mount Kenya, Tana River, Adamsons’s falls and rivers and riverine habitats.

Meru National Park is noted for its fauna and natural beauty. It has many swamps and rivers lined with palms, as well as mountains and woodlands, and it is the setting for Joy Adamson’s book “Born Free”, which was later made into a successful film. The park is home to a large pride of lions, herds of buffalo, and hippos and crocodiles that live in the rivers.At Meru, you will find excellent views of snow-capped Mount Kenya and the park’s beautiful landscape is a camper’s paradise. The roads are suitable for vehicles and there are many rocky outcrops that provide great lookout points for the abundant Kenyan animals.

Game viewing is excellent and includes four of the “Big Five” -elephants, lions, leopards and buffalo – as well as cheetahs, antelope, hippos and crocodiles. The roads are well graded and Meru National Park is quieter than some of the other parks. Meals and Accommodation: Elsa Kopje

Depart from Elsa’s Kopje in the morning to Mathew’s Range. Whilst there, you will stay at Sarara Camp, located within the Namunyak Wildlife Conservation Trust, the home of the Samburu people. The wilderness country here is very much unspoilt with limited network of tracks, to enhance the experience. The emphasis is therefore on walking safaris, which you can discover with excellent local Samburu guides.

In the northern frontier of Kenya lies the Namunyak Wildlife Conservancy, an area of 850,000 acres of pristine wilderness in the Mathews Range. The savannah plains and lush mountain slopes are home to elephant, leopard, reticulated giraffe, wild dog and kudu in ever increasing numbers. This remote and dramatic landscape is also home to the local Samburu people whose age-old traditions, including the famed ‘singing wells’ are as much a part of the fabric of this land as the wildlife.

On the edge of an escarpment in the heart of the conservancy sits Sarara. The secluded camp consists of only 6 luxurious double tents spread out along the hillside with open air bathrooms to make the most of the exceptional vistas and fully benefit from the hot climate. The team of resident chefs lovingly create delicious, home-cooked meals which can be enjoyed in the bush or in the comfort of the camp’s surroundings. I can’t imagine a more gracious setting for our three days here. Sarara is the perfect combination of rugged terrain and adventure coupled with elegance and relaxation. Meals and Accommodation: Sarara Camp

After an early breakfast, head to the airstrip to catch your flight to Masai Mara. Your accommodation for the next 3 days is Richard’s Camp, a traditional tented camp of true African safari style with a few modern surprises, overlooking the vast Mara plains. Masai Mara is one of African’s greatest wildlife reserves, in the northern section of the Serengeti National Park. Whilst roaming around, you are sure to stumble upon lions, leopards, cheetah and witness the great wildebeest migration.

Enjoy the splendors of what the Mara has to offer and our guests enjoy an intimate and relaxed stay and the pace of your safari may be as active or as leisurely as you wish. A wide range of activities are offered including walks with the resident naturalist, visits to the nearby Masai village (entrance extra), a visit to the local school, sundowners, bush meals weather permitting and game drives in the Conservancy. Guests may also relax by the pool or spend some rejuvenating moments at the spa (optional extra). Meals and Accommodation: Richard's Camp
