3 Day Meru National Park Safari

Tour Overview

Embark on a 3 day safari to Meru National Park from Nairobi. Meru is one of Kenya's wildest and least crowded parks - a mix of riverine forest, palm-lined streams and open bush where you can spot elephants, giraffes and zebras on game drives. The park is famous as the place where Joy and George Adamson raised Elsa the lioness, and we visit the Elsa Conservation Area during the trip. Meals and overnight stays are included.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Meru busy like the Masai Mara?
