Nairobi to Ol Pejeta Conservancy and Chimpanzee Sanctuary
- 7:00 am - Get picked up from your Nairobi hotel or residence for a comfortable 4-hour journey to Sweetwaters. Along the way, pass through the fertile central highlands dotted with coffee, pineapple, and tea plantations.
- Travel through remote villages and enjoy magnificent views of Mount Kenya and the Aberdares, clearly visible on the horizon. You will also take well-deserved breaks for washrooms and refreshments.
- 10:00 am - Arrive at the Equator Marker and stop for photographs, as well as a free traditional Coriolis experiment presented by the local folks.
- 12:00 pm - Enter Sweetwaters Tented Camp in time for lunch. You may also spot animals drinking by the camp's watering hole.
- 3:00 pm - Proceed on an afternoon game-viewing drive in this sprawling park, where you may see herds of elephants, buffalo, giraffe, zebra, gazelles, warthogs, and more. The park is especially popular as a rhino sanctuary, so you are likely to spot many rhinos.
- Proceed to the chimpanzee sanctuary for a guided tour.
Continue your game drive until sunset before returning to camp for dinner and an overnight stay.
