One of the few wildlife conservancies in Kenya that can offer you a chance to exit the vehicle for short walks and exploration. The conservancy located at Lake Elementaita is teeming with many types of wildlife from the zebras and giraffe to jackals and hyenas. Birdlife is abundant here especially at the lake shore

 

 

Besides the lake, the scenery also includes the nearby hills such as Sleeping Warrior in the distance and even some diatomite mines

 

Proposed Itinerary:

  • Meet up at 5:45am and departure from Nairobi CBD at 6am
  • Have one washroom break along the way
  • Expect to arrive at Soysambu by 9:30am, go through entry process
