Ol Pejeta Conservancy
Set on 364 square kilometers of pristine wilderness between the snow-capped peaks of Mount Kenya and the rolling Aberdares, Ol Pejeta Conservancy offers one of the richest wildlife experiences in Africa. Nowhere else in Kenya can you encounter such an extraordinary variety of animals in one place—making it a must-visit destination for anyone seeking an unforgettable safari.
Ol Pejeta is the only conservancy in East Africa where you can see both the iconic Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino—alongside rescued chimpanzees at the celebrated Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary. This unique combination makes every game drive a chance to witness wildlife encounters found nowhere else in the country.
Ol Pejeta is also a global leader in rhino conservation. Here, you’ll find the fastest-growing population of black rhinos in Africa, alongside thriving southern white rhino. Most remarkably, Ol Pejeta is the last refuge of the world’s two remaining northern white rhinos—living symbols of what conservation can achieve and what is still at stake.
Whether you’re tracking predators on an early morning game drive, visiting the rhino sanctuary, or simply soaking up the breathtaking landscapes, Ol Pejeta delivers a safari that is both deeply rewarding and profoundly moving. Every visit supports vital conservation and community projects, ensuring your safari makes a lasting impact.

Hi, I’m Rae, based on the West Coast of Canada, on beautiful Vancouver Island. I’m a passionate traveler who has explored nearly 30 countries, but it was a solo journey to Africa that truly transformed my perspective. From the moment I arrived in Botswana, I felt an undeniable connection to the continent and was inspired to spend more time experiencing its extraordinary wildlife, breathtaking landscapes, and rich cultures. My solo travels have since taken me through Zimbabwe, Zambia, Mauritius, South Africa, Uganda, Namibia, and Kenya, where I experienced Gamewatchers Safaris and Porini Camps firsthand. It was during these immersive and unforgettable journeys that my passion for Africa evolved into a clear vision: to join the Gamewatchers team and help others discover the magic of safari. I’d love to connect and plan your wildest dreams!
