Lewa Safari Camp

The Lewa Conservancy on the Laikipia Plateau.

Twelve beautiful sand-coloured safari tents that are nicely spaced out to offer the guests privacy. The rooms are kept simple and stylish and offer great views as the tents can be opened up to see the world passing by outside. Although it is a camp, the bathrooms are permanent structures so you will find nice white-washed stone instead of canvas that add extra levels of comfort to your stay.

Much of the food served at Lewa Safari Camp comes from farms on the nearby conservancy, so expect deliciously fresh meals. And as for facilities? Well, there’s a small pool to take a dip in between activities, and views for miles over the bush. Keep your binos handy for wandering ellies.

With the big five roaming the downs outside, activities focus primarily on morning and afternoon game drives. However, there’s also the chance to try walking safaris, horse riding and camel trekking. Lewa Safari Camp places a real emphasis on conservation, so there’s also the opportunity to learn about the day to day workings of the conservancy.
