The only guest camp actually owned by the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, so its conservancy fees flow straight into rhino protection and community work — a textbook conservation stay set inside one of Kenya's most celebrated rhino sanctuaries.
Set among indigenous gardens on the slopes of the Lewa plateau, this classic-but-luxurious Elewana tented camp puts guests inside one of Kenya's most successful rhino sanctuaries. Game drives, guided walks, horse riding and night drives reach both black and white rhino alongside the rare Grevy's zebra and reticulated giraffe. Wide views toward Mount Kenya and the northern plains frame every meal.
