Discover a Kenyan region known for luxurious accommodations and rich wildlife encounters.
Laikipia is a beautiful and remote region between Mount Kenya and Samburu. Covering a wide range of landscapes including high altitude plateaus, low forested valleys and deep rocky river gorges, the area has become a sanctuary for elephants, lions, leopards, buffaloes and a wealth of plains game. The safari lodges in Laikipia are among the most luxurious in Kenya, and the involvement of local Samburu and Masai communities in tourism allows visitors a rare opportunity to meet local people in a genuine situation.
Home to more than 70% of the world’s remaining Grevy’s Zebra, the Laikipia Plateau is also home to a large number of giraffes, hippos, wildebeest, lions, and white and black rhinos. Visitors are also likely to see buffalos and hyena, who are relatively abundant in this area. In addition, the occasional cheetah and leopard siting is possible here, as well as wild dogs, which are healthy in number here. Laikipia Plateau is also home to a huge number of elephants, and offers excellent viewing opportunities.
Laikipia & North is part of a wider selection of KENYA holidays and accommodation.
