Lewa Safari Camp

PLAN MY TRIP

Sprawling over the Laikipia plains, Lewa Safari Camp is a groundbreaking model of wildlife conservancy based within the 65,000-acre reserve of the Lewa Wilderness Trust.

Thirteen luxury safari tents in soothing neutral tones provide a comfortable place to unwind after an exciting day of game drives. Eleven of the tents can be laid out as doubles or twins. The camp also has two family tents consisting of two en-suite safari tents with a shared verandah, each with one double and one twin room. Each private tent features a thatched roof, veranda, and full en-suite bathroom; an extra bed can be added to accommodate the needs of a family.

The camp is based within the 65,000-acre reserve of the Lewa Wilderness Trust, a popular destination for celebrities, royals, conservationists, writers and photographers. Lewa has been the driving force in in Kenya’s strong initiatives to protect and conserve wildlife, particularly, the black and white rhino populations. Lewa Wildlife Conservancy gained worldwide recognition through the National Geographic program “Game Ranger Diaries.” In addition to holding 10% of Kenya’s black rhino population and 15% of its white rhino population, Lewa features the rest of Africa’s “big five” as well as the endangered Grevy’s zebra, cheetah, giraffe, and many smaller species.

Safari activities include shared game drives in 4×4 Land Cruisers, guided bush walks, bush breakfasts, and sundowners. Other activities include horse-riding and camel trekking for a close up view of the plains game on a unique safari. For more cultural and historical tastes, there are visits available to an archaeological site as well as educational talks on the history and day-to-day operation of the conservancy. In particular, the Museum of Kenya trains guides regarding archaeological digs that have yielded many artifacts.

The central camp areas provide incredible viewing opportunities of Mt. Kenya and the surrounding animals in their natural habitat. Within the lush green gardens, the giraffe-design pool includes bar service, board games, table tennis, and shaded sunbeds for a relaxing afternoon. Beautiful gardens, sunny verandas, a cozy lounge, and a dining room combine to provide the perfect experience. Gourmet, chef-prepared meals utilize ingredients from local organic farms resulting in delectable, fresh cuisine. Moreover, guests can enjoy Lewa Safari Camp assured that the camp reinvests all of its tourism profits back into core programs that support animal conservation as well as local communities through education support, healthcare support, water projects, agricultural projects, and social development.
