The Kenyan Highlands
After breakfast, we will begin our safari. We'll head north towards Mt. Kenya, crossing the beautiful Kenyan highlands. These rolling hills are the source of the majority of Kenya’s fruit. We will eventually reach the foot of Mt. Kenya (17,057 ft) and if you are lucky you may catch a glimpse of its peaks. We will arrive in time for lunch at our camp. It is found in a sheltered oasis, with individual luxury safari tents clustered around a water hole and set in the pristine calm of the private Ol Pejeta Conservancy. During the afternoon, you will have the opportunity to go for your first game drive or enjoy a relaxing afternoon beside the pool.
