10 days · By air and road · Meru, Samburu, Laikipia, Mount Kenya, Solio
Born free country and the mountain
The north at a gentle pace, from the palm-lined rivers of Meru, where Elsa the lioness returned to the wild, to tea under Mount Kenya and Solio’s rhino. Five landscapes, a free day on a ranch, and short drives between them.
The signature moment: A black rhino and her calf on Solio’s open plains, with Mount Kenya behind.
