It’s around 320kms north of Nairobi and on the border of the old Northern Frontier Province. Tranquility and nature embrace you the minute you enter Larsen’s with the river being the perfect stage for an endless pageant of wildlife - elephants rolling and trumpeting in the shallows, timid impala nervously drinking, baboons and vervet monkeys swinging through the canopy of trees.
