Luxury Lewa Wildlife Conservancy Tours made for you

Uncover diverse habitats and wildlife on a private luxury safari

A conservation and community focused wilderness

Lewa is a private conservancy with diverse mix of habitats from grassland plains, forest, wetlands and hills.

Formerly a cattle ranch, Lewa is now a shining example of exceptional wildlife conservation whose efforts have brought back healthy populations of the endangered black rhino and Grevy’s Zebra. In fact its 62,000 acres is now home to over 12% of Kenya’s black rhino, over 14% of the country’s white rhino and remarkably, the world’s largest single population of Grevy’s zebra, as well the rest of the ‘Big Five’, the rare reticulated giraffe and much more.

The conservancy is a not for profit organisation and which also works closely with its local Maasai communities for a for a low-impact safari experience that is not just about the game, but genuine cultural encounters and a united front for conservation. There is a very tangible atmosphere of dedication here.

Together with your daily game drives, more varied adventure activities are available at Lewa from lion tracking, camel trekking and fly camping, to horse riding, village visits and learning about how the wildlife is protected here.

A word from one of our experts

Lewa is one of my favourite conservancies in Kenya. Here the endangered black rhino and Grevy’s Zebra thrive. Keep an eye out for them during a stay at Lewa Wilderness as you embark on a mobile safari in the wilderness of the conservancy.
