One of the best safari destinations in Kenya is the under rated Meru National Park, located to the east of Meru town
The expansive park hosts a wide variety of wildlife such as rhinos, lions, leopards, elephants as well as some of the unique five from Samburu such as Grevy’s zebra and Gerenuk
The natural beauty of the land includes numerous rivers, massive rocky outcrops, rapids, swamps and distant views of Mt. Kenya
