Ol Pejeta is the largest black rhino sanctuary in East Africa, and home to two of the world’s last remaining northern white rhinos. It is the only place in Kenya to see chimpanzees, in a sanctuary established to rehabilitate animals rescued from the black market. It has some of the highest predator densities in Kenya. Located near Nanyuki, this conservancy is the perfect destination for a one-day excursion from Nairobi. Experience the wild if only for a few hours and get a sneak peak of what a safari experience in Kenya would be like.

One-Day Tour

  • Wake up early, have breakfast and get picked up from your hotel or location of choice at 5:00 am to begin our eventful day.
  • On the way to Ol Pejeta, enjoy the scenic roads lined with traditional Kenya coffee and tea plantations. Weather permitting, you’ll also enjoy views of Mt. Kenya and its snow-capped summit.
  • The drive is relatively short, only 3 – 4 hours. It’s the closest place to Nairobi where you can possibly view all of Africa’s Big Five. You’ll have opportunities to spot many typical East Africa wildlife like the Northern giraffe, vervet monkey, baboon, hippo, impala, gazelle, dik-dik and zebras.
  • The rhino sanctuary here hosts 100 black rhinos, the largest protected population in East Africa. Also, of note, the last two northern white rhinos left in the world live in this protected enclave. This special enclosure is open to visitors twice a day, at 8:30 hrs. and at 16:00 hrs (Not possible to visit the Northern White Rhinos while on a day trip due to the timing factor).
  • The Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary is the only place in Kenya where you’ll be able to enjoy these loving and intelligent creatures. Here at the sanctuary, orphaned and abandoned chimps are rescued and nursed back to health. When they’ve been rehabilitated, the chimps are introduced to large natural enclosures where they can live and play freely. Adding to the diversity of this special sanctuary you may also find some little-seen, unique wildlife such as the tree hyrax, white-tailed mongoose, black-fronted duiker, mole rat, bushbuck, waterbuck and eland.
