About this activity
Experience a full overnight immersion in one of Kenya's premier rhino sanctuaries at the base of Mt. Kenya, where you'll encounter black and white rhinos, Big Five wildlife, and witness the electric nocturnal hunting behaviour of lions under the stars.
Ol Pejeta Conservancy is a Rhino Sanctuary located at the foot of Mt. Kenya. It is home to a large number of black and white rhinos, as well as some of the Big 5 animals, including lions, buffaloes, and elephants.
The conservancy offers a unique opportunity to experience a night game viewing drive. This is a rare opportunity to see lions hunting in their natural habitat.

Insider tips
- ★Night drives reveal lions at their most active—bring a red-light headlamp to avoid startling wildlife while maintaining dark adaptation
- ★Position yourself on the open-roof vehicle's higher seats for unobstructed Big Five sightings and clearer night sky viewing
- ★Early morning departure (pre-dawn) on day two often yields the best big cat activity as nocturnal hunters return to rest

- •Bring warm layers for night drives (temperatures drop significantly at elevation near Mt. Kenya)
