After breakfast, depart Nairobi at 7:00 am and drive north towards Nanyuki and the foothills of Mount Kenya. The journey takes approximately 4 hours, passing through the changing landscapes of central Kenya, with views of the agricultural highlands and, weather permitting, Mount Kenya.
Arrive at Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club in time for check in and lunch. The property is situated within the Mount Kenya Wildlife Conservancy, providing a scenic setting overlooking Mount Kenya and the surrounding countryside.
After lunch and a short time to settle in, depart for your afternoon game drive at Ol Pejeta Conservancy at 2:00 pm.
Ol Pejeta is one of Kenya’s most important wildlife conservation areas and is the largest black rhino sanctuary in East Africa, with a significant population of critically endangered black rhinos. The conservancy is also home to the world’s last two northern white rhinos and has one of the highest densities of wildlife in the region, making it an exceptional destination for both wildlife viewing and conservation experiences.
During the game drive, visit the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary, the only place in Kenya where you can see rescued chimpanzees. Spend about 30 – 45 minutes observing these highly intelligent primates as they play, groom, and relax in their spacious, semi-wild enclosures. You will have an opportunity to learn about the sanctuary’s work, the individual chimpanzees and the challenges facing these endangered great apes.
Continue with an afternoon game drive through the conservancy, exploring the open plains and woodland areas in search of black and white rhinos, elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, antelopes and, with luck, some of the predators found within the conservancy. The high concentration of rhinos makes Ol Pejeta particularly rewarding for wildlife photography.
As the sun begins to set over Mount Kenya, the landscape is bathed in golden light, creating perfect conditions for photography and wildlife viewing.
Wrap up our drive by 6:00 pm, and begin making our way towards the conservancy’s exit, allowing sufficient time to leave before the gates close. Drive back to the hotel for dinner and overnight stay.

Nairobi National Park - Wonderful experience! We went for a safari in Nairobi National Park. Professional and friendly driver, nothing was too much trouble for him. We were picked up from our accommodation, spent... read more day in national park, had a late lunch and came back to our accommodation. From the start to the end it was a fantastic experience.

Beautiful Samburu, our African Savannah Adventure - We have travelled previously on safari with African Savannah Holidays and this year we chose to visit the semi arid Samburu Region in northern Kenya. We stayed at Ashnil Samburu... read more Camp and at Samburu Intrepids Camp chosing to fly from Wilson Airport in Nairobi in order to avoid a 6 hour road trip into the bush, the flight was just 45 minutes. Camps were very good with a preference for Ashnil and wildlife in Samburu was excellent. Paul Mgubwa is Director, his service was first class, our guide James Maina was excellent, he was a patient driver and had respect for the animals we saw. Our safari overall was a good one, quite hot 32 degrees at times but its a dry heat so was not uncomfortable.
All of our arrangements from meet and greet in Nairobi through to departure was extremely well organised, we had a fabulous safari and felt we were in really good hands throughout. Sincere thanks Paul we would certainly recommend you to friends wishing to try a safari, it was all that we wanted, just perfect.

End to End Excellence with Heart - I went on my lifelong dream trip to Africa with my brother and four friends in October 2024. I was introduced to Paul at the Travel and Adventure Show... read more in Los Angeles by a friend who is an extensive traveler and a very satisfied customer of African Savannah Holidays. From the moment I met Paul, I knew I would put my dream vacation in his hands.
Working with him could not be easier. He listened carefully to my long “wish list” and my budget considerations; then prepared an itinerary that met every wish with thoughtful care. His communication was always professional, prompt, concise, and friendly.
He met us upon arrival bearing gifts, and provided an orientation of our three weeks in detail. It included Kenya, Amboseli National Park, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, Olduvai Gorge, Serengeti, Masai Mara, and finally Zanzibar. Every single aspect of this trip exceeded our expectations: friendly, charming, and informative guides, lodgings that frankly blew me away, food, and the hot air balloon ride. Every day was so exciting and yet, every following day was better than the last.
Our guides knew just where to take us so that we had encounters with four of the Big Five- with the black rhino as the hold out, and we were moved by the experience of being in the wild with all the magnificent animals. At times, we were alone with lions, cubs, cheetahs, leopards, giraffe, baboons, elephants, hippos, and birds we have never seen before! Being there in Africa’s spring meant that we not only saw babies, but it was also not crowded, the temperature was moderate, and there were no mosquitos!
More than the excitement, was a deep sense of the Beautiful. African Savannah Holidays embodied the culture of Africa that values harmony, respect, and love. With them, we brought back something that can’t be captured in pictures. Our goodby to Africa, Paul, and African Savannah Holidays was gratifying, as the six of us made new friends, deepened our friendship, and emblazoned the sights and sounds of Africa forever in our hearts.
If you are considering a trip to Africa, you must find the African Savannah Holidays on line or come meet Paul at the Travel and Adventure Show at the Los Angeles convention Center in February 2025 . Maybe I’ll see you there!
