Itinerary
Day 1: Nairobi to Meru NP.
-
Depart from Nairobi to Meru national park which is located in the North East park of Kenya and it is a park known for the big five Rhino, Buffalo, elephant, leopard and lion. The park has more than 5 rivers that supplies water to the main Athi river.
-
On our way to Meru, we'll try some local delicacies for lunch, our first glance into Kenyan cuisine.
-
In the afternoon, we'll check-in at the lodge, freshen-up and get ready for an afternoon safari drive in to the park for some animal sightings.
-
Dinner and evening stories from the Meru community at Ikweta Safari Lodge.
Day 2: Full game drive day at Meru National Park.
-
A full day safari in Meru NP to maximize our wildlife encounters. The lodge will serve packed lunch for the day so we can keep going and enjoy our animal sightings and the beauty of the serene landscapes around us.

Day 3: Meru to Nakuru NP.
-
Leave Meru morning hours for Nakuru NP. We'll stopover at the famous Thompsons Falls in Nyahururu.
-
Check-in at the lodge in the afternoon for refreshments and an evening safari in Lake Nakuru National Park.
Day 4: Lake Nakuru NP.
-
Lake Nakuru is home to four of the big five safari animals, amongst many other species. Lions, leopards, buffalo and rhino roam the plains and it’s one of the few places in Africa that still has a significant population of the endangered white rhino.
-
Lake Nakuru is perhaps best known for the huge migrations of pink flamingos that descend upon the lake in vast numbers throughout the year.
-
Hiking, birdwatching and Safari driving will be the activities of the day as we will spend most of the day out in the park.
Day 5: Lake Naivasha and Nairobi
-
Leave Nakuru NP in the morning towards Lake Naivasha for a boat cruise and animal sightings on the beautiful lake. We'll see dozens of Hippos and crocodiles and we'll even have a chance to swim in the middle of the lake. Don't worry, we're safe there, the water is too cold for them!

Day 6: Nairobi and fly to Lamu.
-
In the morning, we'll visit the giraffe center and have a chance to feed some of the protected animals in this safe-haven.

- During our city tour, we'll have a chance to dwelve in the Matatu culture, hoping on and off of these buses as we explore Nairobi.
- In the evening, we'll fly to Lamu.
