Chance to visit the Chimpanzee Sanctuary

Day 01: Visit to Sweetwaters Serena Camp – Ol Pejeta Conservancy

Picked from your city hotel and, depart to the central part of Kenya to Ol Pejeta Conservancy, crossing the equator.   The drive is pleasant and approximately takes 03 hours from Nairobi.

The Ol Pejeta Conservancy is a 360 km² not-for-profit wildlife conservancy in Central Kenya’s Laikipia County. It is situated on the equator west of Nanyuki, between the foothills of the Aberdares and Mount Kenya.

Africa’s most iconic species hunt, graze, breed and fight for survival on the plains of Ol Pejeta every day, in an ecosystem that has the highest densities of wildlife in Kenya outside of the Maasai Mara. Using the latest technology to monitor species populations, and smart fencing techniques that allow free movement of migratory wildlife, Ol Pejeta prides itself on being at the cutting edge of conservation innovation. As the largest black rhino sanctuary in East Africa, and the only place in Kenya to see chimpanzees, Ol Pejeta is also safeguarding some of the most vulnerable wildlife in the world, and advocating for change.

Check-in and enjoy hot lunch at a Serena Sweetwater’s Tented Camp.

Visit the Chimpanzee sanctuary in the afternoon.

The chimpanzees’ natural home range spans from Senegal on the West African coast, through the central forested belt of Africa, to Uganda. They are not native to Kenya, but when a rescue centre in Burundi had to be closed due to the civil war outbreak in 1993 – Ol Pejeta opened its doors.

Here there are more than 35 Chimpanzees and you may be able to interact and watch them.

Enjoy the evening game drive at the sanctuary.  With the snowy peaks of Mt. Kenya as your backdrop, your safari in East Africa’s largest black rhino sanctuary is sure to be as beautiful as it is diverse. Find yourself and the Big Five as you explore 90,000 acres of unadulterated wilderness with an experienced guide who will share his expert knowledge with you. Venture out there for close encounters with elephants, wild dogs, lions, hyenas, buffalo, cheetah, rhino, and all the plains herbivores.
