Kenya Fly in Safari is all about handpicked lodges in three of Kenya’s most iconic national parks.
Elsa’s Kopje in Meru National Park was made famous by lion conservationists George and Joy Adamson, and the least busy national park on the circuit, known amongst the locals as the park to escape the crowds, and its history intertwined with Born Free foundation and the Born Free movie.
Tortillis in Amboseli National Park is teeming with elephant, has its own private concession, and is an award winning eco tourism lodge, with the famous Mt Kilimanjaro as the photogenic backdrop.
Finally Sand River Masai Mara is located directly on the banks of the Sand river, within Kenya’s most famous national park. The annual arrival of the great migration simply adds to an large healthy population of resident wildlife that give you the Big 5 experience all year round. Its secluded location means again you have a piece of paradise all to yourself, without being bothered by the masses in other areas of the park.

TIPS FROM THE EXPERT
The secret to a good safari in Kenya is to avoid the mass tourism lodges and find ones that either have private concessions within the national parks, or have secluded locations to enhance your experience of exclusivity and privacy.
The problem with Kenya is to know what parks to include and what to leave out.?! In our opinion these 3 parks celebrate the heart and soul of Kenya’s conservation efforts , against all odds, to preserve threatened habitats and wildlife, with great locations.
