Kicheche Laikipia
A camp that thrives on its conservation experience. Located within the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, home to the last two northern white rhinos, allowing one of the most hands on conservation experiences in Kenya.
Life in Camp
Located within the 90,000-acre Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Kicheche Laikipia Camp offers an intimate safari experience with just six luxurious tents overlooking a waterhole that attracts a variety of wildlife. Each tent is nestled on the edge of indigenous woodland, providing a serene and secluded atmosphere. The camp operates in the low vehicle density wilderness zone of the conservancy, ensuring private and rewarding wildlife viewing opportunities. Guests can expect to encounter elephants, lions, cheetahs, and abundant plains game during their stay. The camp’s location at an altitude of 6,000 feet means mornings and evenings can be cool, adding to the unique ambiance of the setting.
Timing Your Trip
For photographers and wildlife enthusiasts, March, April, and November offer dramatic skies and lush landscapes, providing excellent backdrops for photography. The January and February months are ideal for those seeking to enjoy warm, sunny days and cooler evenings, perfect for relaxation between game drives. Visiting during these times also means fewer tourists, allowing for a more exclusive and serene safari experience.
