Tours to Ol Pejeta Conservancy

Ol Pejeta Conservancy, located on the equator in Laikipia County, Central Kenya, spans approximately 360 km² (about 90,000 acres) between Mount Kenya and the Aberdares. Originally a colonial cattle ranch, it transitioned into a pioneering wildlife sanctuary in 2004, integrating conservation, sustainable tourism, community development, and ranching.

The conservancy is home to the largest black rhino sanctuary in East Africa and harbors the last two northern white rhinos on Earth. It also hosts the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary, the only such facility in Kenya for rescued chimpanzees. Wildlife sightings include the Big Five—lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhino—alongside rare species like Grevy’s zebra, Jackson’s hartebeest, wild dogs, and more

Unique to Ol Pejeta is its integrated model: managed as both a conservancy and an active cattle ranch, it reinvests its commercial earnings in wildlife protection and community initiatives like education, healthcare, and infrastructure.
