Kenya is a country with a large and complex history of settlement, which is difficult to understand from a normal week's safari. Through many of our favourite wilderness areas, this trip has been arranged to appeal especially to visitors interested in history. Travel is by road and air, and high standards of comfort have not been compromised.

* Safari Option: Elsa's Kopje

Meru National Park is a gem and can be easily added into this itinerary for 2 nights. The ambience of Elsa's Kopje fits perfectly with the other camps used here. It is small and private and named after Elsa, Joy Adamson's domesticated lionness. Visitors fly to Meru, thus fitting the extension between Amboseli and the Samburu. Tour code AA471B.
