Lewa Safari Camp – Laikipia hotelss

Lewa Safari Camp has a stunning location within Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, with outstanding game viewing, and spectacular views to Mt. Kenya to the south and arid lowlands to the north. Each tent has a thatched roof, verandah and full en suite bathroom, very much in the ‘Lewa’ style. The central areas have exquisite gardens with a large sunny verandah and swimming pool to enjoy during the day, and cosy log fires in the lounge and dining room for the more chilly evenings.

The camp is based within the private 65,000 acre wildlife conservancy of the Lewa Wilderness Trust. The conservancy is home to about 10 percent of Kenya’s black rhino population, and the single largest population of Grevy’s zebra in the world. Lewa re-invests all the profits generated from tourism ( including profits from Lewa Safari Camp ) into its core programmes. When you visit Lewa, you will help thousands of people from different backgrounds and cultures to improve their lives, and give their children a future, at the same time as ensuring Africa’s wildlife has a stable home.

 Conservation:
Responsible Tourism
Founded in 1995, the not-for-profit Lewa Wildlife Conservancy spans 62,000 acres and serves as a catalyst for conservation across northern Kenya.
Through the protection and management of endangered species, the initiation and support of community conservation and development programmes, and the education of neighbouring areas in the value of wildlife, Lewa has become Kenya’s leading model for conservation on private land, leading destination for low-impact conservation tourism, and leading catalyst for conservation, and its direct benefits for communities, across the region.
Lewa supports 11 local primary schools in the construction of infrastructure, provision of educational materials and provides bursaries for local students from primary to university level.
Lewa operates a clinic for its staff and adjoining communities and supports two other clinics in the region.
The Lewa Wildlife Conservancy Community Development Programmes aim at increasing social and economic benefits to the communities with whom we work. The essence of these programmes is to attempt to reduce costs which individuals and communities bear as a consequence of the continued presence of wildlife and to increase the socio-economic benefits they derive from it.
Lewa assists it neighbouring communities with education support, health-care support, water projects, agricultural projects, social development and a women’s micro-credit programme.
