My Sep 2024 trip
Kenya between 26 Sep 2024 and 2 Oct 2024
"I am very grateful that Parita directed me to the Laikipia region. Left to my own devices I may have opted for Tanzania.
I love rhinos, and Laikipia was definitely the right choice. After speaking to experienced safari travelers we were confirmed in the knowledge that this area was uniquely densely populated with both black and white rhinos. Aside from the game drives, seeing the last two surviving northern white rhinos was an awe inspiring experience.
As a first time visitor to Africa, I also would not have put together the Nairobi itinerary that Parita executed for us."

I had been dreaming of a visit here for years and I was not disappointed!
I think it would be fair to warn visitors that if they are in the front row they will likely be splashed with mud.
We certainly did get splashed but I considered in a baptism of sorts and have no regrets.

Safari in Nairobi National Park

We did not see many of the big 5 here but, as we already had seen them all at Ol Pejeta, this was more of a bonus game drive.
We did see ostriches and a serval cat, neither of which had been at our camp.
The number of jeeps and minivans there made us glad we had spent the majority of our time at a small conservancy.
