Day 1

Nairobi to Ol Pejeta

Our adventure begins with a morning pick-up from your Nairobi hotel or airport. The drive north takes you through Kenya's fertile central highlands, with Mount Kenya's snow-capped peaks rising dramatically on the horizon as you approach Nanyuki. By midday you arrive at Sweet waters Serena Camp, set deep inside the 110,000-acre Ol Pejeta Conservancy. Check in to your luxury tent, step onto your private veranda, and watch the waterhole elephants, buffalo, and warthogs are already coming and going as you settle in. After lunch, your afternoon game drive begins. Ol Pejeta carries a higher wildlife density than any national park in Kenya lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, and both black and white rhinos roam freely across the conservancy plains. Your guide knows exactly where to look. Return to camp as darkness falls, and watch nocturnal wildlife gather at the floodlit waterhole from the night viewing bar. Dinner and overnight at Sweet waters Serena Camp.
  • Luxury tented camp located inside Ol Pejeta Conservancy (Laikipia Plateau)

Day 2

The Last Rhinos & the Big Five

Rise early for a full day inside one of Africa's most remarkable wildlife destinations. Morning game drive takes you deep into Ol Pejeta's prime game corridors tracking lion prides through the acacia woodland, watching cheetahs scan the open plains, and searching the riverine forest for elusive leopards. Elephant herds move in their unhurried way across the conservancy, and massive buffalo bulls graze in the golden morning light. For an unforgettable optional experience, visit the Sweet waters Chimpanzee Sanctuary — Kenya's only chimp rescue centre, home to rescued chimpanzees living in a natural bush setting. Picnic lunch in the field. Afternoon game drive continues until early evening. Dinner and overnight at Sweet waters Serena Camp.

Day 3

Final Morning at Ol Pejeta

Wake up to the sounds of the African bush one last time. Enjoy a leisurely full breakfast at Sweet waters Serena Camp as wildlife moves around the waterhole in the early morning light. Check out and board your private vehicle for the scenic drive back to Nairobi through the central highlands, with Mount Kenya watching over your departure. Stop for lunch at a restaurant en route before arriving in Nairobi by mid-afternoon, dropped off at your hotel or JKIA for your onward journey. Ol Pejeta is unlike anywhere else on earth. You will carry it with you long after you leave.
