in unspoilt wilderness and well off-the-beaten-track. All

in the foothills of Mount Kenya for two nights. Hidden in a
secluded valley and set amongst acacia trees on the banks
of a seasonal river, the camp consists of six spacious tents,
each comfortably furnished with en suite bathrooms and
solar powered lighting. As East Africa’s largest black rhino
sanctuary, Ol Pejeta is home to approx. 84 black rhino, 11
southern white rhino and four northern white rhino. The
case of its rare northern white rhino was well-documented
in the BBC’s ‘Last Chance to See’ series in an episode
entitled ‘Return of the Rhino’, whereby four of the world’s
last eight remaining northern white rhino were brought to
the conservancy from a Czech zoo in an attempt to provide
a lifeline for this subspecies on the verge of extinction.
Game drives are taken in 4x4 safari vehicles with qualified
safari guides, while guided walks are taken on the open
plains escorted by Maasai warriors. Night drives are also
included and all the Big Five can be seen here. Enjoy lunch
