Elewana Elsa's Kopje – A Sanctuary in Meru National Park
Meru National Park is the home of Elsa the Lioness, made famous by George and Joy Adamson and their world-renowned conservation work. Their story, immortalised in the book and film Born Free, is one of love, dedication, and the fight to protect Africa’s wild lions. At Elewana Elsa’s Kopje, you’ll stay in one of Africa’s most elegant lodges, perched on Mughwango Hill with breathtaking views over Meru’s vast plains. This is where Joy and George Adamson raised and released Elsa the Lioness, and today it remains a sanctuary for conservation and wildlife.
As part of this exclusive experience, you’ll meet the Born Free Foundation team and hear firsthand about their lion conservation efforts in Meru. You will also have the unique opportunity to name a wild lion from the pride monitored by the Pride of Meru Team.
Elewana Elephant Pepper Camp – Heart of the Masai Mara
After three nights in Meru, your adventure continues at Elewana Elephant Pepper Camp in the Masai Mara – one of the world’s most spectacular wildlife destinations. The camp offers a classic safari experience, with luxurious tents, stunning bush landscapes, and some of the best big cat sightings in Africa. Game drives through the private Mara North Conservancy will bring you close to lions, leopards, elephants, and more. Nestled in the Mara North Conservancy, Elewana Elephant Pepper Camp immerses you in the rich wildlife of the Masai Mara ecosystem. The camp's luxury tents offer rustic simplicity combined with modern comforts, providing an authentic bush experience.
