AUTHENTIC SAFARIS & PERSONALIZED TOURS IN MERU WITH AFRICANMECCA

Meru National Park is a discerning adventure-seekers paradise. From the non-stop action of a game drive to the more relaxed and subtle interactions of a nature walk, the park is sure to be a memorable part of your dream holiday in Kenya. Meru Park is considered to be one of the most beautiful and pristine parks in Kenya, and AfricanMecca encourages you to stay longer so that you can partake in all the available activities to maximally appreciate the park from varied perspectives. Amongst the most popular safari activities in Kenya are game drives.

Traveling in the comfort of a custom safari vehicle, you follow rugged roads across the park while enjoying expansive views, assorted flora on display and wildlife freely roaming in a natural unspoiled setting. With a tailored design and features that cater to photographers, the expedition vehicles give you almost unfettered views to capture digitally and in your memories.



While game drives are offered in many other tour destinations in Kenya, the remoteness of Meru National Park means that you enjoy flora and fauna with the sense of complete isolation – no crowds or mass tourist vehicles in sight. It is only you, your guide and a few other guests amidst reticulated giraffes, elephants, buffalos, rhinos and other herbivores, as well as colorful bird life.

With so few people in the park, chances are good that the puff of dust in the distance is a lion, cheetah or other predatory kill rather than the remnants of another safari vehicle. On the aerial expanse of Meru, there are over 300 bird species that take up in the air, from the rarities of Pel's fishing owl to red-necked falcon, Hinde's pied-babbler, Abyssinian scimitarbill, Somali bee-eater and many more.

While game drives are high-paced East African safari activities, bush walks and hiking are the most relaxed and intriguing way to uncover the smaller secrets of Meru. Under the direction and leadership of a seasoned guide, you escape into the micro-ecosystems that are missed during game drives. Upon closer inspection, you find that what appeared as dense bush are actually a hidden world of tracks, scat, insect burrows, delicate flowers, bird nests and much more.



Reptile creatures may include pythons to monitor and agama lizards. We can also arrange walking trips of the countryside and area farms, as well as a journey to the apex of Mughwango Hill where you savor 360° views of the Meru bushland and the iconic Mount Kenya in the western horizon. At the heart of your wilderness odyssey tour in Kenya is the warmth of local peoples who cherish the opportunity to share their homelands.

We invite you to arrange a village visit to meet many of the Ameru, who live outside the park and gain meaningful insight into the many efforts that help these communities preserve their way of life. AfricanMecca can also arrange mountain biking in their villages and farmlands, fishing, sundowners and many other activities.
