Visitors to Lewa are privy to some of the most spectacular wildlife viewing that Kenya has to offer: lion, leopard and jackal thrive on the rich diversity of prey that inhabits the area. The Wildlife Conservancy is home to the largest concentration of Grevey’s zebra in the world, and its range of habitats attracts diverse birdlife and hosts over 200 Black and White rhino.
Featuring large tented bedrooms with verandahs and full en-suite bathrooms, Lewa Safari camp offers authentic comfort for its visitors; cozy log fires in the sitting room are perfect for relaxing after a day in the Conservancy. This unique and exclusive retreat offers privileged access to 65,000 acres of private protected wilderness.
Underpinning the glamorous magnetism of Lewa Wildlife Conservancy is a serious mission: a pioneering and pragmatic approach to conservation, founded in the 1970’s, that has developed into a thriving and globally recognized rhino conservation habitat.
Lewa Safari Camp is the only tourist facility within the Conservancy that is owned by the Conservancy. Profits and conservancy fees generated by the camp are reinvested directly into the conservation and community efforts of Lewa Wildlife Conservancy.
Pick up from your hotel early in the morning and transfer you to Wilson airport for your flight to Masai Mara. The flight lasts about 1 hour from Nairobi and upon arrival, you will be met by the guide at the Airstrip ready to escort you to Lewa Safari Camp. Check in have lunch as you wait for your first game drive of the day. Later in the evening return to the camp for dinner and overnight.
Very early in the morning head out for an early morning game drive. This is because few predators hunt in the heat during the day, so the cool of a new morning is when you are most likely to witness the thrill of a chase. After an amazing morning, head back to the camp for a hearty breakfast before departing for another game drive with packed lunch. Spend most of the day in search the big five, Graveys zebras, Somali Ostrich, Oryx, Gerenuk and more than 400 species of birds. It’s a wildlife spectacular… with stunning, snow-capped Mt. Kenya as your backdrop. Unlike in National Parks, where off-road driving is prohibited, at Lewa your guide can take you off the beaten path to get even closer to the game. Later dinner and overnight at the camp.
Enjoy another early morning game drive before breakfast and a final game drive on the way to the airstrip after breakfast. Board your flight to Nairobi and upon arrival, our guide will pick you up and drop you off at a hotel of your choice or at the airport.
