This northern 3-day safari will also visit the very special Ol Pejeta Wildlife Sanctuary – home to endangered chimpanzees and rhinos. The landscapes and wildlife at these two reserves are rich and unique from most national parks. And we can have you exploring this distinctive part of Kenya with just a call or email – no long lead time necessary.

Aberdare National Park is unique amongst Kenya’s wildlife reserves with its rainforests, waterfalls, green mountainous terrain and rugged moorlands. Here you’ll find amongst the bamboo groves and high alpine foliage buffalo, antelope, elephant, antelope – even baboon and monkey. The park also hosts a large herd of black rhino and some of the big cats like lion and the black leopard.

Places You’ll See :

Kenya is a country in East Africa with coastline on the Indian Ocean. It encompasses savannah, lakelands, the dramatic Great Rift Valley and mountain highlands. It's also home to wildlife like lions, elephants and rhinos. From Nairobi, the capital, safaris visit the Maasai Mara Reserve, known for its annual wildebeest migrations, and Amboseli National Park, offering views of Tanzania's 5,895m Mt. Kilimanjaro.

There are six resident prides of lions at Ol Pejeta and many of our guests are lucky to spot them.  The park also hosts a number of cheetah and leopards. Also, unique here, packs of African wild dogs.

You’ll also find giraffe, impala, gazelle, zebra, hippo, monkey, and baboon throughout the sanctuary.

But of special note, Ol Pejeta hosts and harbors a uniquely large population of black rhinos in a specially protected game corridor.

And perhaps one of the most unique facilities in East Africa is the park’s Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary. Here you’ll view rescued chimps being nourished back to health and living freely in their natural habitat. It’s the only place in Kenya where you can see and enjoy these lively creatures.
