Sweetwaters
Game Sanctuary (3
Days / 2 Nights) Road Safari
Sweetwaters
Game Reserve is 110,000-acre private ranch with magnificent
views across the plains to the snow capped peaks of
Mount Kenya. This game sanctuary is the closest reserve
to Nairobi (2.5 hours drive) home to all the big five
game, and has the highest ratio of game-to-area of
any park or reserve in Kenya. Its popular waterhole
is floodlit by night, providing excellent and secluded
rarely seen game viewing.
Game
drives at Sweetwaters are indeed a pleasure. Game
viewing may also take the form of game walks accompanied
by our Resident Naturalist, and game rides on horseback.
Camel riding, night game drives and "bush"
lunches or dinners are a delight. The Chimpanzee Sanctuary
is most informative and entertaining and should all
be visited while in the Game Reserve. The
Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary is incorporated within
the Ol Pejeta Conservancy and is the only place in
Kenya where this highly endangered and remarkably
intelligent species can be seen.
The
prices shown below are for the driving option to Sweetwater's
Game Sanctuary for game viewing in a 4x4 Safari Cruiser.

Itinerary
Day
1
Nairobi – Sweetwaters/Ol Pejeta
This morning we depart Nairobi and
proceed north, driving through lush tea and coffee
estates to Sweetwaters Tented Camp. Sweetwaters land,
the Ol Pejeta Conservancy and its sumptuous ranch
were once the private domain of famed multi-millionaire,
Adnan Kashoggi. We visit 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 salt lick
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.

Explore Sweetwaters/Ol Pejeta Sanctuary
Today we
explore exotic Sweetwaters Sanctuary on two extensive
game runs. Our camp also overlooks one of the busiest
waterhole's in the area and offers elephant, giraffe
and myriad plains game. This is Africa as Teddy Roosevelt
saw it years ago when he led one of the first safaris
to tour Africa in comfort and splendor. Our tents
at Sweetwaters will remind us of this bygone era.
