A CONNOISSEUR OF AFRICAN WILDLIFE
If you鈥檙e a connoisseur of African wildlife, visit Laikipia; in the midst of an ecosystem with more diversity of flora and fauna than any other region of Kenya.
Big cats like leopards and cheetah stalk their prey across the rolling bushland. Prides of lion laze indolently in the shade of spreading trees. Rare African hunting dogs slink around the fringes of herds of antelope. Elephants amble across your line of vision. Giraffe and buffalo peer at you inquisitively whilst fat zebras graze contentedly in the middle distance.
Stay at El Karama 鈥 a working ranch set within the 40,000 sq km of the Ewaso ecosystem 鈥 on your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Kenya and you鈥檒l be in the middle of the country鈥檚 richest and most diverse game-viewing region. You鈥檒l see all of the Big Five and many more. Rare specimens like Grevy鈥檚 zebra and the indigenous Laikipia hartebeest, monkeys, reptiles and over 370 different species of birds
