Leleshwa Safari Camp

The dining and lounge tents are open to catch the breezes and the views. After your game drive, relax in a comfortable chair with a book, play a board game from the library or have a drink at the bar. As darkness falls, hurricane lanterns are lit and a fire set in the firepit. Dinner is served in the long-tabled dining room, and the food is consistently good. The camp makes you reach for superlatives – you're treated like royalty!

There are just seven tents (five standard and two suites). The tents are of similar size, decorated in natural colours highlighted with splashes of colour. Each is spacious, with an extra-large king-sized bed (wonderfully fine linen) and a sitting area opening on to a private veranda with wide views of the Loita Hills. The en-suite bathrooms have porcelain basins, running water, showers and flush toilets. The suites have an adjoining lounge, ideal for families. All accommodation has battery-powered electricity.

Take a game drive (day drives include delicious breakfasts and lunches – no ham and cheese sandwiches here!), see the nocturnal wildlife or go on a foot safari. Fancy exploring the Loita Hills? Take a multi-day hike with a local Maasai guide. Visit a local village, learn skills like wildlife tracking or spear-throwing. The conservancy secures the area around the camp for future generations of Masai people, and a contribution to the conservancy is made on behalf of each guest.
