Best of Kenya In Style

FLYING SAFARI INCLUDING LAIKIPIA, MERU NATIONAL PARK AND SHABA GAME RESERVEĀ  - 8 DAYS/7 NIGHTS

This safari takes in the very best of northern Kenya. Visiting Laikipia, Meru National Park and Shaba Game Reserve the safari covers an amazing variety of landscapes and wildlife habitats not normally visited by the masses. Loisaba bestrides the border of Laikipia and Kenya's rugged Northern Frontier District.

Only a few miles from the equator, this private game ranch on 60,000 acres is in a wilderness of remote beauty where the farm management and local Laikipiak Maasai and Samburu community work together to preserve the environment and abundant wildlife. For many years Kenya's best kept secret, the untamed wilderness of Meru National Park is now available to the discerning client by visiting Elsa's Kopje, the camp made famous by the film "Born Free" and George Adamson's lions.

Joy's Camp is the perfect choice for discerning guests interested in a glimpse of Kenyan history, as well as those looking for an authentic wildlife experience combined with the comfort of a luxury-tented camp. Joy's Camp is built on the site of Joy Adamson's tented home in the Shaba National Reserve. For the client who is looking for a private and exclusive tour this offers everything and more.
