5 Days 4 Nights Kenya Fly-in Safari Meru Masai Mara

Day 1: Nairobi – Fly to Meru National Park

This morning after breakfast at your hotel/ residence in Nairobi we transfer you to Wilson airport for your scheduled flight to Meru National Park. On arrival at the airstrip, you’ll be met and transferred to the camp with an en-route game drive.

Upon arrival at the camp, check-in and enjoy lunch. After lunch enjoy your new home, take a swim or relax and take some rest, following late afternoon tea, proceed for a game drive. The open plains are dotted with acacias and mighty baobabs, which provide much-needed reprieve to the elephants, from the harsh African sun.

Meru National Park is home to a wide variety of animals and more than 400 recorded species of birds. The park is well known for its fauna and natural beauty and as the home of Elsa, the beloved Lioness made famous in the award-winning movie BORN FREE and the best-selling book was written by Joy Adamson with the same title.
