    This classic ‘Conservancy Safari’ visits two diverse eco-systems in the hands of expert guides and your home will be two luxurious bush camps. The Conservancy, now 90,000 acres, offers a blissfully uncrowded environment to enjoy quality game viewing. The Conservancy is home to Kenya’s largest population of Black Rhino, large numbers of elephant, cheetah, lion, leopards, and plentiful plains game. Ol Pejeta lies on the equator 30 minutes’ drive from Nanyuki airstrip and has wonderful views of Mt Kenya. The safari then flies down the Rift Valley and into the Masai Mara to Kicheche Main Camp. There will be game drives in custom built vehicles and the exciting opportunity to do walking safaris. The safari ends with a flight to Nairobi in the morning.
