10 Days/ 9 Nights Lewa Downs Conservancy Walking Safari Detailed Itinerary
Day 1: Nairobi Fly to Lewa Lewa Wildlife Conservancy
Your safari begins with a flight from Nairobi departing in the mid morning from the city’s Wilson Airport (the domestic airport). Your scenic flight over the northern slopes of Mount Kenya and lands at Lewa Wildlife Conservancy approximately 1 hour later.

 

You’ll be met by your hosts and driven through the reserve to your accommodation, Lewa Safari Camp (an excellent alternative we often use is Lewa Wilderness Lodge). Settle into camp and after lunch, enjoy a late afternoon wildlife drive.


Overnight at Lewa Safari Camp
Meal Plan: {Lunch and dinner}


Days 2 & 3: Explore Lewa Downs Lewa Downs

Enjoy an incredible wildlife experience on Lewa Downs, a stunning reserve featuring savannah and acacia grasslands with all the Big Five, large herds of plains animals and the one of Africa's most important black rhino populations.

 

Lewa is home to over 420 species of birds, Reticulated Giraffe, Cheetah and many other endangered species. The reserve was created in the late 1980s from a former cattle ranch by the owners, the Craig family.

 

The initial purpose was to preserve the last remaining black rhino in northern Kenya; however the reserve has grown in importance for all species and now acts as a catalyst for communities across northern Kenya to conserve their wildlife and natural environment. Your stay will provide fascinating insight into the important work of Lewa in this respect.

Day 5 Continue on the walking safari Lewa Downs

The lodge provides a relaxing and high quality holiday experience but also serves a more important purpose in providing an example for other communities in northern Kenya who want to conserve their wildlife and in doing so, derive benefit from eco tourism.

 

At Il Ngwesi, morning and evening wildlife drives and guided bush walks are available as optional activities. Tassia Lodge offers a very similar, high quality, community-driven experience.
