Experiences

• Game drives

  Game drives are available during the day and at night, using the lodge’s custom-built 4WD Land Cruiser! You can expect to see lion, leopard, cheetah, elephant and oodles of plains game, in addition to rare species such as African wild dog, Grevy’s zebra, and Beisa oryx.

• Bush walks

  Walking safari in this particular area tends to be quite a gentle affair, a chance to get slightly more immersed in the bush and to learn about the finer points of flora and fauna. They must be booked in advance so the lodge has time to request a rifle from the rangers in the Conservancy.

• Lion tracking

  It is also possible to participate in the local lion monitoring program, in which a conservancy guide uses radio tracking equipment to locate the animals, after which you spend some time monitoring and recording their behaviour for the Ol Pejeta Ecological Monitoring Department database.

• Chimpanzee Sanctuary

  You can also take a trip to the Chimpanzee Sanctuary, to see the orphaned chimps who are raised there and to learn about the difficulties faced by chimpanzees in the wild.

• Endangered Species Boma and Baraka the Rhino

  Over on the busy eastern side of the conservancy, the Endangered Species Boma is home to the last two northern white rhinos on the planet. A two hour guided tour shows you around and explains what is being done to try to bring this species back from beyond the brink. The boma also has six southern white rhinos and two black rhinos, plus numerous Grevy’s zebras and Jackson’s hartebeests. There is also the chance to meet Baraka, a blind rhino that is kept in the sanctuary for his own safety and who can be approached very close from a feeding platform.
