A visit here is a must. We've enjoyed the 'tented'camp atmosphere on two occasions and the game viewing was fabulous.

It is a very nice place, privatly operated with a limited number of visitors. The chimps refugee camp is special because chimps are not native in Kenya. All of them have a poor story to tell.
Te wild life is great and the scenery with Mt. Kenya in the background is simply stunning.

One of the few parks with a realistic chance to see the big five in a single gamedrive, plus the only place to watch chimpanzees in Kenya!

An amazing insight into the life, threats, plight, beauty and power of the Black and White Rhino
Great variety of wildlife, impressive scenery (Mount Kenya a stunning backdrop), fantastic wardens and staff.
The Conservancy is managed impeccably, good infrastructure, roads in good condition, safe and secure.

Great place to visit on a Safari tour!
Ol Pejeta Conservancy was our first stop on our Safari in 2011. It was a great way to start out and we were able to see several animals right off the bat. We stayed at the Sweetwaters Tented Camp, where the tents and restaurants have spectacular views of wildlife and are literally out in the bush. They are safe, and you can see it on YouTube at http://youtu.be/-Tapks-e7Ys?t=4m49s
The conservancy itself gave us many opportunities to view Cheetah, Giraffe, Zebra, Gazelle, Waterbuck, Elephants, Chimpanzees, and many other animals up close. In addition, we were able to get up close to a rhino and even touch it! Watch the videos at http://youtu.be/DZESAy7YCro?t=1m16s
Ol Pejeta is definitely worth spending a day or two in as part of a safari. At around 90,000 acres, it has tons to offer and opportunities to see the Big 5.

Perfect place for a family safari
We spent 3 days in this fantastic reserve where you can "touch" the real hard work of KWS related to protection of african wildlife. Rhinos, chimpanze, african wild dogs are only 3 reasons for visit this fantastic place. We stay in Sweetwaters tented camp that is full of birds, rhinos and different type of antelope all around it, with Mount Kenya in background. For a family with children is a perfect place.

game I did not see this time at the water hole were Beisa Oryx, & Thompsons Gazelles. Many Elephant came most days, on one occassion 36+, Eland on four occassions & White Rhino, the black came at night or at dusk, Zebra were constant and Giraffe about every 2/3 days. If you like birds, there are ample grounds to walk around with some 200+ species recorded. If you want a game drive just to have a change, this can be arranged by the camp.So if you want a relaxing holiday with a difference, and I mean a big difference, choose sweetwaters where you can see all the game without all the hard work.

wonderful experience of the night drive and seeing some different wildlife
wildlife was different...have not seen wild dogs before: saw them close-range both day and night; scenery rather varied and provided many photo opportunities; weather was fine and clear...not too hot for us nor the game; accommodation clean and well-kept...excellent spot opposite waterhole on other side of stream so excellent viewing and photo opportunities; transportation was our own, except for night drive; guides were experienced and friendly; seeing Baraka was a bonus....meals were well-presented and tasty....all in all, a very enjoyable experience...we would go there again
