Experiences

• Bush walks

  Accompanied by trained Samburu rangers with a sweeping knowledge of the local flora and fauna, tracks, micro-ecosystems, history and culture of the area, as well as hands-on knowledge of rhino conservation, a bushwalk from Kifaru House is an informative and exhilarating experience.
  

• Game drives

  Within the protected area the wildlife is abundant and game viewing is outstanding. With one of the biggest rhino populations in Kenya, the rare Grevy’s zebra and plentiful sightings of lion, cheetah, elephants and all the plains game set against the magnificent backdrop of snow-capped Mt. Kenya, a game drive here is one of the most spectacular in Kenya.

• Ngare Ndare forest walk

  Located south of Lewa guests can experience the rich diversity of this beautiful montane forest at eye-level with the monkeys and dozens of bird species high up from a canopy and take a refreshing swim in a natural pool.

• Horse and camel rides

  Experienced riders can get up close to the plains game as they graze, indifferent and untroubled by the presence of other four-legged creatures. You can also ride camels with experienced Samburu handlers for a scenic lope through the wilderness.
  

• Village visits

  Lewa Wildlife Conservancy borders the Samburu communities of Tassia and Il Ngwesi in the arid lowlands of the north, from where many of the Kifara’s team are recruited, and who can guide you around their manyatta homesteads and villages.

• Conservancy tours

  You can visit the local schools during term time and take a tour of the conservancy offices to see conservation work in action such as the training of the anti-poaching tracker dogs.
