Day
1: Nairobi —
Drive to Sweetwaters
Game Reserve
After breakfast, we travel overland to
the Sweetwaters game reserve and chimpanzee sanctuary.
This 90,000-acre private preserve has views of the peaks
of Mount Kenya and offers game drives into countryside
many travelers never see. We check into our tented camp
or Lodge where we stay for the next two nights.
We have lunch in camp/ lodge. Sweetwaters land, the
Ol Pejeta Conservancy and its sumptuous ranch were once
the private domain of famed multi-millionaire, Adnan
Kashoggi.
This
afternoon game drive takes us to the Chimpanzee Sanctuary,
a charming haven established by the Jane Goodall Institute
to provide sanctuary to orphaned chimps, and the specially
protected and fenced refuge of black rhino with its
stunning forty specimens!
In fact Sweetwaters boasts excellent game viewing with
the highest ratio of game to area of any park or reserve
in Kenya. Moreover, the camp has its own private waterhole
and saltlick so we’ll be guaranteed unprecedented
close encounters.
Whether
its day or night game drives, camel trekking, lion tracking,
al fresco dining or relaxing by pool, Sweetwaters is
bound to delight.

River.
It
is also one of Kenya’s most protected areas and
home to species only found north of the equator, from
the reticulated giraffe to Grevy’s zebras and
Beisa Oryxes. We also enjoy Larsens Tented Camp or Samburu
Intrepids Camp, our luxurious tents set beneath a canopy
of acacia trees along the banks of the river.

Dawn breaks in golden bands as we start
our day in the bush by scanning the river from our tent’s
veranda with a cup of steaming coffee in hand. Before
the dew is off the grass, we’re off in pursuit
of the elephants, lions, leopards, and cheetahs that
thrive in the reserve’s grasslands and acacia
woodlands.
And
so the day is spent in alternating pursuits of exploration
in the bush and relaxation in our cozy camp.

high altitude game viewing, including animals that are
rarely encountered elsewhere: giant forest hog, bush
pig, tree hyrax, large spotted genet, and the elusive
bongo.
Wildlife can be observed from different levels –
and from outside where you can see, hear and smell everything
and inside where you can sit with a cup of tea and stay
warm and cozy.
You
can put in a request to be awakened during the night
if your favorite animals show up. A herd of Elephants
might be just feet away and if you are lucky, a Leopard
or large male Lion might put in an appearance.
