ol pejeta conservancy印象

We were really impressed! On arrival at the gate we were welcomed with big smiles and asked to enter the office to purchase the tickets. After signing in on an iPad we were sent off by the sanctuary staff wishing us a great safari. The national park has a lot to offer! We have seen giraffes, white rhinos, lions, zebras, Buffalo and many more ... Our main interest though was to visit the Chimpanzee sanctuary. Amazing work is done here which convinced us to adopt two of the rescued chimpanzees, this gave is the opportunity to look behind the scenes and we were allowed to be part of the feeding of the 24 chimpanzees in this part of the sanctuary. Amazing how they all slowly arrived from all over the sanctuary to grab their bananas and other fruits; the chimpanzee conversations (the noises they make) are one of a kind!!! Please do it and help this project by adopting! Another amazing project they have is the support of a blind black rhino, which is completely dependent on human help to survive. You can visit the rhino and feed it as well. Again I have to point out that each employee of the park was super friendly and helpful! They should win a price for that! Have visited many other parks in Kenya and the experience was quite different! Keep it up and share with KWS!

This conservancy remains one of the most beautiful places to visit in Kenya, with the Equator cutting it into two and the Chimpanzees protected area, The Rhinos and the wide plains under Mount Kenya makes this place a unique destination.

The Ol pejeta conservancy is an amazing place to visit the endangered black Rhinos and during the 2 game drives we were able to see giraffes, Rhinos and monkeys !This conservancy located in Nanyuki provides a great view of Mt. Kenya especially in the early mornings. It also neighbors the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary where you have a chance to see the the most adorable Chimpanzees! If in need of accommodation there is the Ol Pejeta Bush House as well as the Sweet waters Serena Tented Camp nearby.We had a great time there and it is a place where conservationists and nature lovers should visit.

We bought a map at the entrance and drove around the conservancy. The Chimpanzee Sanctuary was very educative. We also saw hippos, rhinos, buffaloes,etc. The wardens are very helpful and knowledgeable. Unfortunately we were not able to see any of the cats.

Ol Pejeta is THE Rhino reserve. Rhinos are moved from elsewhere to protect them from poaching. However this means that the conservancy is fenced - which seems strange after experiencing other wide open and unrestricted parts of Kenya. But the conservancy covers a large area and it is very easy to forget about the fence. In addition to the huge population of rhinos, there is plenty of other game, plus sable antelope and wild dogs, and lions. There is also a (fenced) area for the rehabilitation and protection of chimpanzees.

Excellent choice for the Kenyan wildlife experience! You have lot to choose from in terms of accomodation, length of stay (from half day to a week or even longer), places to see and animals to watch and learn from.

During the game drive we were lucky to see black rhino, elephants, jackals, and spotted hyenas. We then went onto to the conservancy where we toured the ranch. The staff is very nowledgeable and we actually saw a snake when watching the chimpanzees that have been rescued from captivity. We were able to fee Baraka the Blind Rhino and tour a small museum. Afterward, we went to lunch around a waterhole where we watched elephants and giraffes up close.

Didn't get to see any of the Cats (Lions, leopards, cheetah) but that's a given due to the time of day we went. The highlights were definitely the chimpanzee sanctuary and Baraka the Blind Rhino. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and really gave us a good understanding of their efforts to conserve not just Kenya, but Africa's wild life. If you're heading to Mount Kenya, I would 100% recommend stopping by for a 2-3 hr drive.

Well, we were unrepeatably lucky. We had the Wild Dogs for 2 1/2 days and were able to sit with them for extended periods of time.Hence we were unable to do much other game viewing. nevertheless, we had an amazing Lion and Jackal interaction and quite a few other things. The conservancy does not feel like 100% bush, however, as the town of Nanyuki and other human habitation is often visible, especially at night, despite being quite large.I am in two minds about the presence of cattle. On one side they are not in their place in pristine bush, on the other hand the Masai have been using the wilderness like this for centuries.One thing I certainly dislike are the fugly concrete constructions for cattle.Still, highly recommended for amazing viewing of endangered wildlife like Rhino and Dogs (if you are lucky...)

One of the main reasons for visiting this area of Kenya was to see rhino, and it certainly did not let us down. We were lucky to see rhino on each game drive, and on one day saw a total of 15 animals
